Roy Hobbs 2,179 Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 2 minutes ago, bluenose244 said: I think, from the outside looking in it seems we've brought in all the targets we set out to, and if that is indeed the case the fact a defender wasn't part of that plan up to this point is slightly worrying. Hugely optimistic about the buisness we have done though, but our back line just gives me the fear and they haven't done much in pre season to change my mind. (Same mistakes). How do you know a defender hasn't been planned for? It's been well documented that we want shot of Davies. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just the tone of those comments and the way i read them, I don't think anymore will be in unless a good few are moved on. There is a month left of the window, lots of players being released, loaned etc. I would be very surprised if there wasn’t an unexpected signing/loan and a few going out on loan from us.

BlueThunder 8,454 Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 If Cifu, Danilo and Lammers all play to the level I believe they can we should have some fun matches. If Sima and Dessers turn in performances for us too we will be laughing. Having said that, I expect the filth to sign more so we won’t really know where we stand until September or thereabouts. Promising though…. The No.9 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Bear 15,102 Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 Would be nice to get a few off the books now. Midfield is definitely overloaded. Still can't see us buying a defender until we make room. Either King and Yfeko going on loan or preferably Davies being sold. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that's staying the obvious. It was always likely to be dependent on Davies leaving. The other players mostly filled gaps in the squad.
