Guest LondonOwl313 Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 If the strong rumours are to be believed the squad will look like this: Keepers Westwood Dawson Wildsmith Defenders Bidwell Penney Odubajo Palmer Lees Borner Thorniley Iorfa + Hector/Findlay (maybe) Midfield Downing Forestieri Reach Lee Onomah Bannan Hutchinson Forwards Fletcher Nuhui Joao Outs Fox Van Aken Pelupessy Winnall Rhodes Think on top of what’s suggested we probably still need a pacy wide player, a holding midfielder and a decent striker. And that’s assuming we don’t sell Joao or Nuhui, who I could see leaving. Maybe we’ll fill those other gaps with loans and the 6 ins referred to permanent transfers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming we move out 5/6 experience pros well end up bringing in 10/11. Not counting the likes of Preston, Kirby, J Lee etc who are young pros Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deano Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 No problem with steady reliable players like Bidwell if you can still get quality and a means to supply them higher up the pitch. I'm sure Bruce will have a plan for this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackSWFC Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 Only roumurs of players on your “Outs” we’ve heard are Rhodes. The rest are all players you’d personally move on. Think the only one we might be able to shift is Winall, rest we’re probably stuck with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IstillhateSteveBould Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 Bidwell’s better than Fox from what I’ve seen of him, so that’s a upgrade at LB. I would say Odubajo is better than Iorfa and Palmer (who may not even be here next season). So again, an upgrade. No idea on Borner. He’s a complete unknown. I still believe Hector should be number 1 priority if we have any sort of budget. Ok without knowing about Borner, it’s still hard to imagine we’ll be anything other than weaker defensively if we don’t get Hector back. Or someone of equal quality. Onomah is an interesting one. We certainly need some fresh legs in midfield and although he’s shown little on loan, the potential is there and it could be a rare opportunity to sign a young player with good pedigree, from a big club, with big potential resale value. Still think we would need another more defensive minded midfielder as well. And we absolutely need pace and energy in attacking/wide areas. Hoping Downing is just agent talk. I’d rather have Wallace back if we’re wanting a wily old pro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not convinced Chelsea will sell him at all with them not being able to sign anybody. Cahil is offskis so Hector may get a chance in the cup for them! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
