Cardiff City look set to add ex-Watford first-team coach Omer Riza to their coaching staff.
Mozz, Shrewd is a bit over the top. Interesting would come to mind. We know nothing about this bloke as a coach. I'm always mildly perplexed when people use Superlatives in order to project their leanings, Osian Roberts is the second coming on here because he's Welsh and Cesc Fabregas said he was good. Be optimistic by all means, Positivity is welcomed, but plucking shit out of thin air.....
I can't see much happening until the end of the month as that's when the current financial period ends.
I hope he has lots of connections to quality players who are looking for a basket case of a club to play for.
If he has - then great - Im yet to be convinced, Im also yet to renew my season ticket.
it does feel as though we have been less than the sum of our parts in attacking for some time, so hopefully this kind of appointment will have a significant impact.
last year we had the likes of Meite, Bowler, Grant etc who have all done it at this level before and we were largely ineffective in attack
Perhaps it's just me but does anyone else get a bit underwhelmed when I find out we've missed out on signing someone who has ended up going to a team quite a bit below us in the pecking order last season?
It would be good to hear we've missed out on someone who ended up going to a side aiming for promotion, to be targeting players that are also targets for likely top sides in the division. Absolutely no disrespect to Jordon Williams, and hope he has a great career (except when he plays us, he can have a shocker then lol), but aiming for League 1 players that end up going to a side from the same division last season doesn't inspire me greatly. If that is the sort of target we are aiming for we'll get more transfers wrong than right and we're not heading up the table.
probably a load of b'llux this rumour but we are in for Michael Olise
Did we really 'miss out' on signing Jordan Williams?
I can believe that the club looked at him as a possible full back option - probably along with dozens of others - and maybe even spoke to someone - but did they ever make a formal approach?
Surely most of these 'linked with' stories are agent inventions?
They are usually given space by Wales Online (after appearing somewhere else first) and then are rubbished a few days later when the club deny ever being interested. Two stories and no substance.
We had been linked with Sevilla reserves striker Musa Drammeh but it looks like he's off to Hearts.
Why on Earth would you be underwhelmed by us missing out on a League 1 player ? There could be a myriad of reasons why one player would choose to join one club not another and not all of them are be football-related.
In this instance you probably feel miffed because you consider Cardiff to be superior to Pompey and yet the player has chosen to join them instead of us. Anyhow, it's more likely that we were never interested in him in the first place. Just pure speculation by WOL.
I'm not panicking.
But at what point does the "Tan backs Bulut" narrative become another PR bullshit lie?
If we want to get real philosophical (since there's absolutely **** all else to talk about) is a lie a lie when it's first muttered or when the event in question does/does not happen?
