Currently six development players and Alfie Mawson( although concerns of his injury record, could be brilliant) only signings to date. Not exactly what I thought when I listened to the interview between GA and Phil weeks ago, when GA spoke about our signings really showing our intent in the league this season. Ever the optimist , we will get a couple of ‘good ones’ before the end of the window. Wasn’t there a rumour circulating that we would have a new keeper before tomorrow’s game. Clearly leaving it late!!
It's interesting that Matshazi's tweet thanks God for bringing him to Wycombe. This time last year, with Bayo, Stewart and Alex Samuel, we had big players who wore their religion on their sleeve. It's only seeing Arnold's tweet that it stuck me that that aspect of our squad has disappeared in one year (I'm sure there are other religious players in our squad but I can't think of any who are so vocal about it).
Not if we loan one out to get experience for a while. The Development squad is a not for now project that is being judged its currently great produce for now players.
Get Championship quality on loan and develop our youngsters. Win win.
Not really counting but it’s probably four or five weeks since the original interview and with today’s announcement of more development players, in my humble opinion, it’s still a legitimate question. Clearly going to have to keep an eye on your posts to ensure there’s no repetition!!
I hear you but Muskwe has zero goals and one assist in his championship career of 20 games. I assume Mellor got awarded an assist on Saturday so he’s already a match.
signings are great for development side but we need players for the hear and now , especially after what Rob said pre season, seems obvious now that he said that just to sell more season tickets

The prospect of defences having to try and deal with Taff, Mawson and Vokes from set pieces could be glorious.
Gareth and @Malone
What a team!
I don't want to take too much credit...
No actually I do.
Me saying it was happening was pretty much the key part of this. 😎
He won't be the same but if he can get anywhere near some other write offs like Tyson, Vokes, Scowen & Bayo he'll do just fine.
Can see why these types of deal take time.
If he could match his form from last time round we'd all take that!
We won't expect the premier league form.
Good back up signing…….
Wait, what the f<€# this is FANTASTIC👍❤️🤪. COYB’s. Up the WYC etc etc etc .
We’ve signed two new development squad players, Luca Woodhouse, a midfielder and Arnold Matshazi a striker most recently with Blackpool.
Matshazi described as a prolific goalscorer at youth levels.
He sounds like one for the future,with his scoring record i wonder why Blackpool let him go,let's hope they regret their decision.
Admiral Muskwe looks to be heading out on loan from Luton. Maybe one to bring in.

If he does come our way it would be a vote of no confidence in the junior strikers we have now.

McCarthy is reportedly the most overtly religious player at the club - at least according to Close Quarters.
How many times have you posted that same post in recent weeks? Asking for a friend.
Id take Muskwe feel we need another striker
Not something I’ve thought about, but one of the many differences in the dressing room this season.
I believe GA goes to church fairly regularly.

@Right_in_the_Middle apparently, there is a goalkeeping issue, which goes on and on and on on. Who knew?
Don't stop believing. Hold on to that feeling.
Your optimism is to be applauded @davecz in the past some people would be calling for GA's head after this sort of transfer window.
I hear you but Muskwe has zero goals and one assist in his championship career of 20 games. I assume Mellor got awarded an assist on Saturday so he’s already a match.
Muskwe scored 3 goals in the Championship for us.
Surely you've gathered by now that Mellor isn't regarded as a development player?

was the friend who told you to join @Wanderers82 by any chance?
who ? I'm lost what do you mean ?
Oh God he/she's back.
