At the time Wheeler would have been a great acquisition but he was never an (500k) option. He also would not fit in with the current style: Carey and Lameiras playing fairly narrow and buzzing around Taylor who is holding up and laying off to them. Lameiras has meant that putting two on Carey isn't an option. Once one of these two get in the box they are virtually untouchable with their quick feet and skill. Wheeler is/was more of a Jervis type player who we got rid of as he didn't fit the new formation.
I don't think we will make play-off but after our horrific start this has been a great season.
I am serious in wondering whether your hierarchy want promotion. It's a comfortable life for them in upper mid table league 2. The last time you got to league 1 after one good season it all spiralled downhill.
I worry about us in the same way should we somehow get back into the Championship. Our current team cost less (in transfer fees) than yours (Stockley) and the vast majority (if not all) of the Championship teams have phenomenally expensive squads. This is what did for us last time.
But your lot should have the resources to seriously push for and aim to stay in league 1 (Wheeler, Ampadu (eventually)). I get the impression even the trust have settled for league 2 anonymity.
C'mon Greeks, mobilise.
