The manager situation - one thing's become clear now.

[The Lone Gunman]

I think we were in for a player like Hugill or Kaba to be a focal point for the attack, but just couldn't get it over the line in a difficult transfer window.

Indeed. Poor management by Super Steve Morison. It was blatantly obvious from the moment Kieffer Moore was sold that the club needed a proper striker, but apart from Etete he didn't acquire one for the 22/23 campaign. There may have been various factors at play which brought about that situation, but ultimately it's on the manager. After all, he'd had long enough.

As for his views on Etete, I recall Morison got quite arsey with a journalist who dared to suggest that Etete was one for the future rather than the present. But then he's a bit thick, so I suppose we should make allowances.
