For those looking to dissect…
Many people have praised Kioki for his performances.
Neverbrite loves his power surges which are most welcome, but he doesn’t do them often enough away from home. Although he did make a few surges away from home at FGR but ended up losing the ball.
Neverbrite would not play him as LB in a 4 4 2. He would possibly play in in a 3 5 2, but possibly wouldn’t because of his passing ability.
He is has been very good defensively at home games, but at FGR he looked bemused when their RM looked to run down the line.
He shouldn’t be played as a LB so put him into midfield once he learns to pass.
As a matter of interest did you go to FGR game - that’s a polite question?

Many plaudits flooding in on Kioki. The question is have they seen him play away. I agree his power surges are welcome; I love it! These power surges are not so evident at away games. Even at FGR in the few surges he did invariably was lost in an over optimistic pass. Personally would not play him as a left back in a 442, possibly in a 3-5-2 but whether he has the quality of passing ability is debatable. Whilst his defensive duties in home games were energetically carried out but at FGR when their right midfield began to make in roads I thought Kioki looked a bit bemused by this aggressive play. Once with Lewis, he or both failed to dispossess an FGR player. The full backs should be of an unforgiving nature so shove Kioki into midfield to add some impetus there but he must learn to pass first.
Well this aged really well. Well done

So, to cut a long story short, what's the point you're trying to make?
Koiki has looked good in most games so far, but he struggled a bit against FGR

For every Ivan Toney there are a hundred Glenville Donegal's, although he was a good addition to the school team. We played around him I think I played against GD a few times.... Delapre? A bigger beast was Wayne Baptiste, physique 3 years above his year group. I can still see my mate writhing on the floor after he snapped his leg. Not deliberately..... but ouch.

Rumour circulating yesterday that the Villa lad, Dominic Raven, has been sent back because his fitness isn't up to the required standard. Also, we're trying to sign a free agent striker.
I wouldn't be surprised at the first rumour, but the second one I'm not so convinced about. We shall see.

Shame that Alex Jones didn’t stay. I thought he looked decent.

I think someone should just take this city of Peterborough and just... just flush it down the f***in' toilet

On the striker bit - is it likely that Alex Jones has now decided to accept an offer from Jo Brady?

Got to be worth a short term contract or pay as you play?

If Alex Jones wanted to sign for us he would have accepted the invite to join pre season training...
He'll also take weeks to get match fit, so I'd rather we try and work with what we've got til January, unless there is a ready made match fit striker out there...which there ain't.
We should have got in that Tishimanga lad when we had the chance, been on fire since joining Chesterfield.

100% Ragdoll. Whatever Chesterfield invested in him it’ll be doubled by Christmas and quadrupled by the end of the season. I can only sleep at night by convincing myself that the rumours were wrong and we were never in with a sniff as Chesterfield broke the bank to get him.

We were interested in him but his wages for an unproven player were enormous and we backed out . Ended up with Kabamba who i watched warm up on saturday and he looked woeful in shooting practice - i mean , if he hadn’t got the club kit on , i would have thought he was the bloke that puts the cones out .
