Vaulks will give us more mobility and can chip in with odd goal, and, at least till he joined us, seems to be fit most of time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, keep Mass somehow and I couldn’t see anyone touching us next season. Mass, Bannan and Vaulks flanked by Hunt and Marv would be one hell of a set up. Byers left or summat?

He looked like he was pulling a caravan last month or so. We lack mobility and legs in midfield, and he's part of that. Him Bannan and Byers are all excellent technical players, but as a collective, that's where SOME of our problems lay. The Sunderland games a prime example. There midfield ran all over ours Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andyben Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 They ran all over us because (THROUGH NO FAULT OF HIS OWN) Bannan was injured and wasn't able to break forward like he had been in the latter part of the season. He sat and it was Massimo playing in the advanced role, as he did at QPR. The alternative would have been to drop BB and put Fiss into his position but Moore didn't have the balls. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's easy 4 us to say he shouldn't have played, I don't think he should, but as a manager you just hope your better players can produce that bit of class required. Windass was another one.

tomcore Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 (edited) I still rate Luongo, especially at this level. I just wonder if he has one eye on the World Cup squad. Is Vaulks an upgrade? I don't know. Does he have an eye on a Wales place? Does it matter? I think we are losing a good player.

KrolMong Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 I’ve got to say, if Luongo had averaged more than 25 league games a season, then this conversation would be a different one. He’s clearly a very good player at this level and a decent one at the level above. But he’s a crock. And injuries have played a part into our drop into the third tier, and more critically, played a massive part in us not going up last season. We absolutely have to get in the right type of quality that is going to be available for 38 games plus. I feel sorry for Mass, because historically he has played a lot of games. Good luck to him, if fit, very good player and could get a deal higher up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hirstys 12th Pint Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 Always thought Luongo would move on and will be off back down South or to Oz. Great player to have and hopefully Vaulks a good longer term replacement. No real issues with Joe or NML leaving. At that point NML had a couple of blinders thought he might be the difference but after getting injured in Feb (I think) looked as though was playing within himself too much. Joe cannot be the constant number 2/3 and needs to try at make a number 1 spot his own. Somewhere like Donny would be a good move. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck to him, if fit, very good player and could get a deal higher up. Agreed. No one doubts his ability, he's outstanding at our level and more than good enough further up. If him Vaulks and BB were to be out midfield then something has gone very wrong if, with addition of a striker and CH we don't get auto. Vaulks gives us legs and physical presence which with Dennis and Fizz missing we didn't have. Byers is excellent technical player but him BB and Mass got out run at times. Unfortunately it looks like Mass will be leaving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 Can't remember where I saw it, but we've been linked with Sunderland winger Jack Diamond. Spent last season at Harrogate. Seen him many times. Much better than League 2 standard but he's an out and out old school winger who couldn't tackle a fish supper ,not a wing back so can't see him fitting into Moores system. Decent but produced the worst miss I've EVER seen live in last game of season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
