the old guard 2,321 Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 For me it's a two year team/squad building task, I don't expect to have the finished article anytime soon, saying that I'd like to see a solid right back and a proper number 9 added before the season starts with possibly a left back and a playmaker added in the future.

WCPRANGERS1 2,997 Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 The squad is seriously lacking in quality, not just in the 11 but those on the bench or who can be brought in. At least... 2 FBs 2CBS 2 Wingers Probably another 2 strikers. Think we also lack a really creative game changer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inigo 32,526 Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 If Alves and Morelos stay then I'd be reasonably content if we brought in a right back, a centre mid and a couple of forwards. Whilst getting rid of the likes of OH, Holt, Hodson, Fod, Halliday, Herrera and Cardoso. And sending Jack and Docherty on loan to the likes of Hearts/Killie. geneva_ger 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Specky Forum Organiser 64,423 Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 Right back, playmaker and 2 strikers are the priorities for me We need more than that but if we got all of them at a high standard I'd be happy Teddybear123, Billy1984 and Prso's headband 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skyson1872 2,923 Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 I'd spend a good whack on a goal scoring number 9, then get a versatile forward. After that, a left back, maybe a box to box and if the money is still there a right back and centre-back. whatnobeer 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

K.A.I 36,183 Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 Depends really. If Gerrard plans on going a 3 at the back, then I think we need another center half as it's a long season and need that wee bit of extra cover. If Gerrard plans on a back 4, I'd honestly splash out on 2 proper, capable fuck-balls. Cash in on Tav to fund it. Regardless if it's 4 or 3 at the back, we without a doubt need a couple of talented creative players for the middle of the park and a couple of strikers too. We need these to be relative marquee's in all honesty ... some of the guys linked simply won't do. If there's even more room in the budget then another defensive-minded central midfielder. I like McCrorie and think that position can be his, but we need options there too we can't go with only 1 guy that can do the job. Outbound I've said it loads but I'd cash in on Fod, maybe Morelos is the cash is right (then we need 3 strikers not 2 as mentioned above), Tav (if like said above we are doing a back 4) and maybe Windass if the offer is right good too. Even if we have to release them ; Hodson, Wallace, Halliday and Forrester to get them off the wagebill. Try to find buyers for O'Halloran, Herrera, Pena and Cardoso. I'd love in an ideal world to get cash for Rossiter, Docherty, Jack, Holt and John but I don't think we can so might aswell have them as squad options. Yeah I know Holt is interesting Plymouth, but unsure how concrete the interest is so I'll pinch of salt it (for now) Happy to keep Alnwick as back-up to McGregor. Stay of executions for Dorrans, Candaies and Alves too. Might be against my better judgement, but that's just the way my gut is swinging at the moment.

ronniescu 2,965 Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 We need.... 2 proper, genuine, tall fullbacks that can defend, attack & take no prisoners. At least one quality goalscorer, who can defend from the front & take no prisoners. At least one devastatingly creative midfield maestro who ideally, will take no prisoners In addition, we need to get all last year's driftwood & shitebags so far to fuck.

Windass I would go 4 - 2 - 3 - 1 with the 2 being CDM's. The 3 in front would be windass wide left and Ejaria wide right. We need a number 10 and a clinical no.9 Murphy is too one dimensional, dorrans is pish and i personally would punt candais, morelos, herrera and cardoso and whatever fees are received get them ploughed into a real clinical striker Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clemdog 39,389 Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 My main priority now would be a strong, athletic, comfortable on the ball - box to box midfielder. Probably a big outlay but when McCrorie is out injured we have absolutely no height/presence there. I really want us to have a big strong athletic XI. After that a striker, a wide man, back up to both fullback positions and a CB. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
