A winger good scoring and assists last season |  | |  |

I wonder if we are planning to go with a false 9 if Vipotnik goes. |  | |  |
| Zulte Waregem player on 12:38 - Jul 21 with 7514 views | raynor94 | Being said he plays a role similar to what Mane did at Liverpool can play all across the front line scoring and assisting |  |

Have played it before, if we retain Vipotnik and Idah that’s some attacking strength we now have. I’m unsure about Vipotnik though. There’s going to be a good bit of movement out. Unless it’s a big fee can’t see it being Inoussa. Ronald possibly, Eom is on our radar too. Ollie cooper should leave now we have a number of u21 Welsh players which is key to our identity and FAW affiliation. Bianchini ? Clearly not in any plans but wondering if the club would loan to save on releasing him ? It’s a cheaper option. Cotterill & Wilson ? |  |

Of the players out on loan last season apart from Congreve and Lissah I can see us trying to offload the rest. |  | |  |

For me Key has to go, Ronald, Cooper, Bianchini. I like Eom so that would shock me if he went. Inoussa based on your report today doesn't give me confidence. I just get a feeling we won't go up a level if Ronald and Co are still with us and with the amount of players in, surely they have to go now. Side note, I know it won't happen, but Cullen for me should go. |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads
| Zulte Waregem player on 23:19 - Jul 21 with 6566 views | Martyn | Not quite sure what the plan is here. EOm and Innoussa on left and Ronald on right Yeo is in, if Opokha signs then we have 4 left wingers Just's a winger, left footed. Only thing I can think of is Matos trying to play with 2 10,s behind the 9 Just on the right side and Yeo on the left side |  | |  |
| Zulte Waregem player on 23:29 - Jul 21 with 6532 views | Martyn | The more I look at the 2 potential signings maybe thats what Matos is trying to add. The ability to play with 2 10's when he wants Just at Motherwell As a 10 - sixteen times As a 9 - five times Opokha Left wing - twelve times As a 9 - twelve times |  | |  |
| Zulte Waregem player on 23:43 - Jul 21 with 6496 views | KeithHaynes | Things will sort themselves out, there is clearly a plan that can’t be completed in a week, there will be gaps filled and I’m thinking now that Eom and Vipotnik may be moving on. Just a feeling. Can’t fault the money being spent, we have owners who for the first time I think in 25 years who actually care. They are moving the club forwards and the overall transfer costs may not be reached for any of the three players coming in this week. And if they do it will mean the Swans have gained promotion. |  |

If Eom is sold and Ronald stays, that would be odd in my opinion. I think Eom brings more to the table, but Matos must have much more confidence in the players coming in far more than he does in Eom if true. I understand the Ronald may not have any suiters, but he just huffs and puffs. |  | |  |

Why so keen to see key go? I'd like to see Parker get a chance to start as he showed he was capable of stepping up at the end of last season, but you need a strong squad and Key supporting Parker would support that. I hope Inoussa is just finding his feet again after the long injury he had last season and will improve week on week. Also worth noting that it's hard to really judge players on pre-season games where the team is (a) not at full strength and (b) changing all the time, surely the focus is on fitness and tactics rather than individual performances. With the players coming in I think Eom, Ronald and Cullen could all be moved on. For the same reasons as Key mentioned above, I'd be happy for them to be retained to keep the strength of the squad and be used off the bench when needed but they shouldn't be starting many games next season IMO. |  | |  |

Personally, Key is atrocious at defending. His attacking is good, but defensively he is clueless (in my opinion). I would be. Moving him on to keep Parker and Lissah in that role |  | |  |

I think we need to see if Parker can perform injury free for a period of time and if he develops into a regular right back until then at least we need Key. Is there any truth that Keys problems last season developed from a problem with Galbraith and he wasn't the only one apparently. Inoussa I can see going in January if he doesn't kick on. Eom I feel, as I always said would be better as a 10, would he be perfect if we started going with a false 9. Ronald in my opinion can only play as a wing back and we don't play that way so needs to go. Cullen, I will be surprised if he goes anywhere. He loves the club and city and has no intention of going anywhere, no club will make him a big offer, so he will see out the 2 years left on his contract in my opinion. |  | |  |

I share you opinion I’ve had pelters pointing this out but no matter He is the first one we should have shipped out seasons ago as he costs us , Cullen is insipid but he doesn’t cost us games Key can’t tackle well , positioning is atrocious heading ability is zero BUT he loves the city , fans and is a good Christian boy That’s good enough apparently |  |

A very nice young man who has excellent skills going forwards. I wouldn’t worry too much I still think he will leave or come very close to it after Matos gets back and runs the rule over what he has seen over this week. Being a Christian is the sign that he has faith, and hopefully that got him through since the departure of a certain disruptive midfielder. Couldn’t care less if he drops his trousers for the Pope every morning. He’s a decent professional. |  |

| Zulte Waregem player on 10:59 - Jul 22 with 5730 views | grabsplatter | For all the praise our previous recruitment team received last year they really had a mare regarding wide players. I know Inoussa was unfortunate with injury last year but he was injured when we signed him & showed very little promise before getting injured again last season. If we are going to move him on we're not going to recoup what we spent on him if the figures reported were correct. The 2 loanees were a waste of a shirt unfortunately. Hopefully the newbies will chip in with a few goals, if we're going to improve our wide players have to score more. |  | |  |

We need our wide players to cut inside more and shoot, we also need the opposite wide player to get in the box when crosses come in. Eom does it frequently Ronald seldom does it but when he does he seems to score. |  | |  |

They're both right footed so it's natural for Eom to do it, Ronald rarely uses his left foot. Eom is an odd one, he's a better footballer than Ronald & looks dangerous but the stats don't really back up what I see (if that makes sense!!). I can see why managers like Ronald because of his work rate & energy but he's just not good enough in an attacking sense. |  | |  |

Ronald can't cross with his right foot so may as well play on the left and cut in. |  | |  |

No, it makes perfect sense and I said much the same last season. Eom is a better player than the stats suggest. For me he's wasted out wide and would be more effective centrally. Maybe that's part of the plan. Have a variety of players capable of playing across the front(ish) three. Just, Eom and Opoku and rotate them. Walta as your regular #10. |  |

Being a “ Christian” in no way makes one more worthy of veneration than anyone else He’s terrible in his primary role IMO Having religious faith is simply a belief that cannot be provenanced Fundamental born again Christians have bigoted , often horrific views especially if they use passages of scripture to justify them Personally I find footballers making the sins of the cross twice and Muslims hands above looking to Allah highly offensive and should be banned . IMO |  |
