But as you just said, we do need to plug those gaps as soon as we can.

Yeah, and I think we probably will find ourselves getting maybe like some stock gap options instead.

So as you were saying, like a Minter, for example, where he's not going to be the top of anyone's list really, but he might just be able to plug a gap.

But you do want to get people like that in as early as possible, because as you said,

With a new coach coming in as well, everyone can be nice and impressionable.

We can all start to get involved with his philosophy as early as possible.

You don't want a player to be coming in on the back of maybe waiting till the end of the World Cup to see what the options are to then bring in those players in.

And we saw it with Isaf last year.

If you bring players in on the back end of the pre-season, it takes so much longer for them to embed, to get in.

And as we saw, not even much fit for most of the season anyway.

Yeah, I agree.

I think when it comes to the players that we've mentioned that would normally be fringe players for Liverpool, buying them into bolster, some of them probably end up getting more minutes than we would have wanted in the first place because of our main targets not being there.

I know you touched on the

Certain clubs have a little burst of windows, but we had Munoz in one week and then we were going for Diamandi the next, so that might have been our little push that we then got knocked back and we've then got to re-evaluate and kind of see where the chips are lying now.

So, like you said, we might get another little window where it's another two players here, two players there or whatever.

But I wouldn't want to do it just for the sake of doing it quickly, because we need to get them in quickly, as Josh was saying.

It's about getting the right players in and not just getting someone for the sake of it.

Yeah, and to be fair, probably around January, we thought we'd be down.

Then we thought, oh, that feels done and dusted, probably on the back of poor performances from Canate himself.

And then, obviously, as I just mentioned, he then departs.
