Good signs going forwards today, with a good striker we win that. Defence badly needs work. Byram and Creswell improved things but we need Drameh fit and another CB bringing in. Hejlde looked poor. Need a good left back

Thought Summerville was very good as were Gray and Ampadu. Gnonto worked very hard just looks a touch rusty. Sinesterra not his best in the 10 role.

Plenty of work to do in the market and they need to do it quickly. I’m off to the midweek game it’ll be interesting to see the team, we can’t afford many more injuries

Just shows what a half decent full back can bring to the team (Byram)
I would be happy with Phillips/Bellis and Cresswell in the centre back position with Byram RB and someone like Taylor or Williams LB.
Get Hamer in that team and a proven striker and we will do ok.
I also prefer Poveda to James.

all 3 are right sided CB's aren't they? certainly byram or preferably dramah at RB.
agree with the rest

Didn't think Cresswell was great when he came on. We definitely need to get at least one CB with pace. Especially if we're going to play with such a high line.

Looked a handful Poveda when he came on. James unlucky not to score in the second half. Im sure I read we’re closing in on Phillips but will see. That squad is very threadbare in midfield though, lose Ampadu and we’re in trouble. We’ve got to keep Summerville imo, don’t think he’ll have a release clause. I’d sell Harrison.

Adams looks like he's off to Chelsea. Hopefully it gets done as quickly as possible, so we can strengthen the team

Re: ALL NEW 49ERS ERA LEEDS UTD THREAD : Mon Aug 07, 2023 5:03 pm  

Yeah bad news that. He could potentially turn them down yet but unlikely. We’re absolutely threadbare there. Need to go get Hamer plus one other CM. Oh and a 10..

can't say I've heard of him

other outlets saying a deal almost done for phillips.
who knows

Re: ALL NEW 49ERS ERA LEEDS UTD THREAD : Mon Aug 07, 2023 5:53 pm  

Me neither Tad but sounds decent from that report. Wouldn’t surprise me to see two CBs brought in. Cooper could be out a while..
