Some world class bitterness here to enjoy of a Friday morning

They really think they're a massive club. In reality, they're fortunate Scottish teams even get Champions League qualification given the quality of their league.

How upset they are just goes to show how good this signing is!

Well we’re going to see if it works but from my recollection the teams that dominate in this division have skill and physicality in the attacking areas.

Benjamin Bloom was very clear on this when speaking to Dicks and Dickens.

Personally think a team containing Fujimoto Kyogo and Stanno might be too light weight.

The championship is dynamic and we need to be able to match skill with physical strength.

I woulda’t disagree with this either, let’s see what happens but what a signing this will be if true and we pull it off!.

Yeah it’s definitely a signing of intent.

We've got Dykes as the strong option. Stansfield isn't exactly a feather either. He doesn't mind a bit.

Not sure I agree with this. Leeds dominated the league with attackers like Dan James, Mateo Joseph, Willy Gnonto, Manor Solomon. The only exception was Piroe.

If this happens forget the City Of Birmingham Stadium, perhaps Charce will be happy with The Rising Sun Superdome?

I’m not totally convinced Fujimoto signs, but we’ll see, but even if he does, and Kyogo does, we’ll still sign others. We’ll be bringing in a more physical forward too, some physicality in midfield, and a destructive winger or two.

Those players have the ability to ride challenges, physicality is not just about being big and strong.

It’s one of Keshi’s best attributes his ability to hold off his opponent.

Can't wait to see how our squad evolves. Christ on a bike what a different feeling to 3 or 4 seasons ago, picking up journeymen to just try and survive another season again. Still feel like pinching myself.

Don’t we also have 9 subs on the bench instead of the 7 last year? Gives us a chance to have the Dykes type in the squad without the expense of others.

Weren't we going to be far too lightweight for League One?

111 points later, it turns out we weren't.

The requirement for big biffers just isn't there, we do need to add pace but I'm sure we will.

bluer than blues

Bloom was correctly talking about the premier league, not only are players technically very good at that level but they are physically impressive.

I think there’s also a perception that physical = tall. That’s not necessarily the case.

Being physical is about smart positioning of the body, stamina, balance and upper body strength as much as it’s about just being a unit.

For me, Jay covers a lot of those attributes.

Ssn are reporting it now

Come on blues. Make it happen!
