    You chose to leave out a full back who would have been playing premier league football if not for a injury... couldn't make it up

    Yiadom is a proven championship footballer. I'm just glad your not picking the team

    To be fair all HT has done by his post is demonstrate the depth of the squad.

    Everyone else then goes on to impute something sinister just because its HT who's posted.

    It took you a 4 hour bus ride to dream up a thinly veiled swipe at arguably the best player at the club? You just couldn't make it up... :)

    You’re only a month behind, it was a common topic on here how we’d got at least 2 players for every position at the end of the transfer window.

    Seriously though we’ve got more depth than last season just got to hope in time they can play with the same quality

    I was more impressed that hedges has been banished from any side despite the fact he's played every game and is the second highest goalscorer. If only he'd been at Chelsea instead of Swansea as a kid.

    I never said anything was sinister just can't work out why Andy yiadom doesn't make either team. Like I said he would of been playing in the premier league if not for injury.

    Well then there was no need for the "couldn't make it up" remark - which was I suggest only attached because it was a HT post.

    You could have just said 'look at me.....I went to the game' and saved yourself all that typing.

    Fair enough. Ones been picked for me then the others a team of my opinion. It's a mere opinion of a fan. One fit ones not. We need a new right back for the next game. Yiadoms more likely to be picked.

    Cavare excites me as a fan. Quick, Strong, Tall (for a full back), like to get forward and attack the opposition. If he can prove himself then you've got a mighty fine footballer at a value that would match the Mawson deal. IMO.

    Look at Manchester City. 100 Million on Walker and Mendy. They aren't thinking about them without the ball it's with and how would you escribe them? Quick, Strong, Tall (for a full back), like to get forward and attack the opposition??????

    I never troll HT I enjoy reading his posts at times. Having said that I really don't know what he has against Andy yiadom it's getting abit boring now. And why would he pick fryers before him.

    Ex premier league player basically. That isn't a dig or anything it's just the truth. Because he's an ex premier league player HT sees him as automatically superior because he's played at the highest level so logically he must be up to that standard.

    How many times have you seen Cavare play in a competitive match?
