singe Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 (edited) So far there have been 4 asking for defenders, 3 for mid, 2 for strikers. We kinda need 3 loanees really. Edited October 30, 2013 by singe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lookersstandandy Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 I'm assuming after the Brendon Rogers love-in the other day, that these two loanee's are gonna be from Anfield....? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BP1960 Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 (edited) We need a steady defender aka a Gregan but they are few and far between. Strange comment re second half when we shipped two goals to poor defending and still only scored one when level at break. It certainly goes down as a typical latics performance and from talking to mates why many have given up as sort of predictable whoever is in charge. Scoring two away should give you at least a point not that a point is worth a lot v bottom side. Why can the players not show any real drive for full 90 mins? Fans who went must be gutted. Too many lightweights, lack of bottle and easily bullied may go some way to explaining it? Edited October 30, 2013 by BP1960 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oafc-latics Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Don't need any loan players. The problems last night were down to nobody picking up their man all game, can't see a new face improving that. If he's bringing in a loan just as a reaction he's making a mistake. Also, however good Mills has been, I can't help but thinking that trying to accommodate him and Grounds has meant chopping and changing too much. When he goes back, hopefully Grounds will go back to LB and we can have a run of games with a settled back 4. That's why I can't see the benefit with bringing people in, work with what we've got.

mikeroyboy Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 (edited) I believe Larnell Cole had talks on Saturday and Scholes rates him. He is a quick footed attacking midfielder but has no experience in League football. He would need to be a rare immediate impact loanee for it to come off. If we were lucky in that respect and also managed to get an 'experienced' central defender it would, IMO, make a big difference. Trying to find a guaranteed striker at any level is like finding dobby horse poo. Edited October 30, 2013 by mikeroyboy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LightDN123 Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 We cant work with what we have! We have lots of defenders injured and are having to play players out of position! arguably we had 3 out of the back 4 out of position last night. No wonder we were so bad at defending Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al_bro Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 I'd like to see some expierence come in but that will come at alot higher cost than untried youngsters. Without tarky last night there wasn't one leader in our defence including oxley . Oxleys reluctance to come for crosses is preventing us from relieving pressure and slowing the game down when we are under the cosh . Time for rachubka maybe ? By bringing in two kids on loan Lj is running the same risk as previous managers of hampering our own players' confidence/progress. I don't think he's hampering our own players, simply giving them a kick up the backside and letting them know they can be replaced if they can't be relied on. I agree that Rachubka should be brought in, I've always had doubts about Oxley and I can't see Hull keeping him myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobOAFC Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Only defender we need is possibly RB - not seen Winchester play this season so cant pass judgement on that, but Tarky & Kusunga are fine at CB. Midfield we are fine, give Mellor another chance in CM! He won't be bullied and brings an attacking presence - remember how well him & Smith started to play last season? No need for two loanees...

Winchester was the best player on the pitch on Sat and played well against Orient at RB. Also got Lanzoni and Brown there so I think we are fine.

Are people talking bull:censored: not even trying any more? Doesn't look that way. Suppose next we're signing Gregan back to partner Tarky.

TawnyOwl Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 (edited) It was just one match that we didnt have Tarky. Saturday he'll be back, partnering Kusunga, Grounds to LB and Winch at RB. Let's try and have a steady back four for a few games. Edited October 30, 2013 by TawnyOwl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz_Oafc Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Wonder how much involvement Scholes has had in the larnell cole one then. Is it just a case of scholes was watching latics anyway and someone at utd has asked for larnell to tag along as we're interested, or something more?
