Injuries And Suspensions

[Reds73]

I know you are desperate to pin all our problems on Nuno but its not that simple. I have zero sympathy for him myself and accept he wanted out which led to a bad atmosphere pre season but think there are/were wider issues including of course the awful decision to employ Ange.
Big job for Dyche but he’s the right man to sort it

Precisely and one of the biggest issues was not getting the transfers done for Portugal, hence pre-season.

You have already said that a thousand times.

It was impossible and never going to happen and it never will.

The vast majority of tranfers happen towards the end of a window, always have and always will.

Only the clubs at the very top of the food chain get players their players in at the start of the window.

Brentford - Wissa replacement didn’t even come in until season started.
Fulham - did there business on last day of window
Everton - business done late in window
Villa - late in window
Newcastle - late in window.

Nuno used it as an excuse to create fireworks behind the scenes. This is firmly on Nuno
