Slightly disappointed to not have shifted any diddies yet and looking really light on quality in forward areas at the moment, but still excited to see what these new guys offer and where they fit in the squad.

So much shite to try and shift on. Could move the 5 attacking midfielders on and wouldn’t miss a single one of their contributions.

The Specky Forum Organiser 67,093 Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 Expecting Nsiala and Cortes to be starters. Igamame and Jefte to be punts we hope we can turn into something. Barron somewhere in between. Content enough with that and the fact we're looking to add physicality and youth but expecting the level of player we bring in to start increasing by a fair bit. Also need to start shifting on as many of Tav, Goldson, Davies, Yilmaz, Dowell, Lawrence, Raskin, Matondo, Cantwell, Wright, Dessers and Lammers as possible.

With the squad change over required, I don’t see it being managed over this window, especially getting players out. There are some big wages in the AM section that haven’t contributed enough so complete overhaul. A starting CB should be next priority to replace Goldson or Davies.

Colin Traive 23,347 Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 Not one of the AMs is worth keeping. I expect Lammers and Hagi to get moves but the ex-Norwich pair might be more difficult to shift. Need to find at least two for that position but it might mean waiting until we can move dross out. OrangeRab 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KBOO72 4,547 Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 Still alot of time left in the window but you could argue we haven't improved our first 11 at all so far with the signings we've made. It was always going to be a huge task to rebuild the squad in one window but we really need at least one or 2 who add real quality to our starting 11, even just to get the fans excited for the start of the season.
