So what's your point then?
I'm sure DC would've rather kept Bodin & Harrison, but I suppose that doesn't fit the narrative.

Managers team, tactics, and purchases! Just saying! We have been crap all season so we are where we deserve to be! Simples Let me counter that with my take on matters. DC has been left with players who he didn't want to sign apart from Ed Upson, our only signing early in the summer window. I can't imagine the rest were even in a list of 10 for each position that he wanted and could have got with the boards backing.
He was left signing a load of crap that not only doesn't fit what he looks for in a player but doesn't fit what we needed for the team. Every midfielder we have would be best suited behind the front two it's completely unbalanced. Add that to the players who have left in the summer who haven't been replaced. Gaffers is the only one that's scoring though. He wouldn't be if he was still here, Bodin and Harrison are injured too so in theory they wouldn't add anything either.
It's worth noting we are probably both wrong!

DC has spent all of his budget. Under EFL rules you can only spend 85% of your income and DC had done that by the September. That is why the £85 k Mensah ( who we will probably never see again) had to go out on loan DC has a mid table budget which he had completely spent by the end of August. We have spent 85% of our income, which is the maximum you can spend under EFL rules. |

I think you give DC too much credit- he's playing Sercombe and Sinclair on the wing so right now he doesn't know his ass from his elbows and I dare say that goes for the transfer market too. |

What choice does he have other than change things around and try new things |
