Bouncing Owl Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 Elmohamadey will not be coming as we already have 2 right backs. Bruce won’t go for Diame as I’m sure he is after young legs. The plan will be to tie Westwood up for 2 years and recruit Hector. He will then bring in a new left back, defensive midfielder to provide competition for Hutch and a box to box midfielder. He will look to bring in a couple of young wide players with pace. That’s our recruitment done, however if we can release 3 strikers, I think he will like to bring in his own man in up front.

Guest wilyfox Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 All those still creaming over Diamé 3yrs on from Wembley, I'd rather loan a younger version like Ejaria from Liverpool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morepork Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 Bruce and his team identified our shortcomings immediately. I trust they’ll be equally efficient and forthright in identifying players to fill those gaps and improve us. Must be English......I wouldn’t want any of those young Dutch fellas they are shybo......To me it doesn’t matter where they are from, I just want them to be hungry for success not fat on complacency. We need a new Mo Diame, not the old one. Some suggestions in the various threads would easily see us replicating the failings of our more recent transfer policy.

TomtheOwl95 Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 Not bothered, as long as they come and give 100%, that's all you can ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i used to be sc_owl Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 My preferred strategy would be: CB in the 25-28 year old age bracket who knows the division (Hector, ideally). FB x 2 in the 20-25 YOAB who know the division or possibly loans from the PL. CM aged 28-30. Someone who is a beast of a player and a leader. Someone who can drag the game along by the scruff of the neck. I also believe this has to be a player who knows the division. Winger in the 20-25 YOAB. Not necessarily British but someone with pace - lots of pace. So yeah, a preference for British players. I’m not anti-foreign but generally speaking it’s a gamble when you go abroad for this level of football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthefish2002 Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 Think Bruce will cast his net worldwide but more likely to stick to people who know this league as less of a gamble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whos creaming over him? It was a simple suggestion based on the public fact that Bruce as always rated him and he’s a free agent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im sure there will be a lot of younger players brought in but I would also anticipate a couple of experienced players arriving as Bruce fully understands the needs of the league. im not saying Mo Diame is a cert to arrive but we all know that Bruce rates him.

I really hope the club has learnt from the signings of Boyd, Abdi and Jones that this is not the route to go down. Agreed, our central midfield players would be Diame Bannan Lee Hutchinson and Pelupessy. That is not the young hard running group of players Bruce claims he wants. Diame will be 32 when the season starts and I don’t think we can rely on Lee and Hutchinson to play a major part next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He might come in and be a revelation but our past experience with these types of signings suggests we should avoid big premier league earners approaching the end of their career. In our position not the type of player we should be looking at. We definitely would not be able to afford his wages with FFP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why cast the net further when the Northern General is 2 mile up the road. We must be able to fine loads of crocks in there that will sit around doing f**kall for far less than the likes of Hooper, Abdi, Lee ect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
