Semedo's a 3rd choice player IMO. His positional sense is poor, and we lose solidity with him on the pitch. He's still a lot to learn to be a genuine alternative to Sow or Watson. Handy option to create goals from deep, not a player who'd I like to rely on as a week-in, week-out alternative.
As you say Paplane, Silva is an OK signing. Does an OK signing get you promoted, and should we have better? One who's more suited to playing 90min in the champ? He'll continue to improve, but Lamouchi has a balancing act to deal with in the meantime.
I cover the rest in the post above.
It's not that they've done loads wrong per say, it's that I don't think they're of the quality required for promotion if they are called on to play week in, week out. You don't go up by not doing things wrong, you go up by doing things right.
We're doing great, and I think we've enough to get by until Jan. But when Jan comes we need to be signing ready-now players who don't need developing, and last night showed a Blackburn side clearly for the taking, but Mouch having to use players not up to said task.
