His club refused to sell him and are likely to continue to do so, whether he's on our shopping list or not.

Kayal and Sidwell on borrowed time IMO .

Probably. Kayal has been left behind somehat since his injury and needs to re-establish himself. Sidwell probably won't be offered anotyher contract at the end of the season anyway.

Either way, even when they are both finally fit again, it's difficult to know who they would replace.

Ok fans of the 70 Minute Club, welcome to the newest member but sadly he's not read the memo:-

Delaney - A full 90 mins, but only a yellow card to show for it.
Andone - (Showing how it's done) came on after 64 mins, no goals or assists.
Babacar - 60th min sub, scored a last kick of the game penalty to rescue a point.
Haraguchi - Injured?
Janssen - A full 90 mins + an assist.
Raphael - Off after 72 mins + a yellow card. Pretty much textbook.

Manager - Fred Hantz - Metz lost 0-2.

As usual, anyone else?

First time i have asked. Carry on...

I'm sure someone did a week or two ago.
As you're the only person talking any notice of this shite, I took a punt, and clearly missed.

Zohore is on his way back from injury. Reported that he might have made the bench today.

Is Delaney actually better than either Dale or Davy - and even if he is, would he bond better with the team (and whichever of the CMs he was paired with) to justify replacing one of them? Or would he come here if he thought he was going to be back up?

Basically does what Dale does but falls short of his distribution which he makes up for by being much more of a threat from set pieces. He is VERY good in the air for only 6ft and if he's not heading it he always seems to get something on it.

We have a very different player in Propper and as much as I love the fact he is technically brilliant compared to the rest, I think CH would have preferred a Delaney/Neto + Stephens midfield pairing protecting D&D.

I wouldn't rule out still signing him, Werder have been struggling. Gross and Propper fighting for a spot and our squad would start to look pretty special.

Stefano Denswil?

I'm not sure I want to add another player who doesn't fit the 70 minute club, narrative.
I guess you'll have to wait until next weeks exciting installment to see if he makes the cut.

Well the 70 Minute Club hasn't exactly covered itself in glory this weekend:-

Delaney - Still bucking the trend and playing 90 minutes.
Raphael D - Subbed on after 66 mins, textbook.
Andone - Unused sub.
Babacar - Ditto.
Janssen - Subbed off after 40 minutes.
Haraguchi - Injured?
Denswil - Another 90 minutes, I'm not liking these new arrivals.
Andrea Ranocchia - unused sub.
AC centre back and new Leo's teams are yet to play.

Manager Fred Hantz' Metz got a creditable draw.

Apart from Delaney it’s worrying if true that our Scouting department pursued this dogshit
