We will about have that when we fill the extra squad places. Hoping a striker comes through who can get near the 20 goal mark. Last few times we went up we had Madine on about 18 goals and McClean on 20+. Think this is right. A goalscorer is so important. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely, but that is what every club at every level hopes for. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With a squad hopefully looking abit like this Peacock-Farrell Dawson Wildsmith J. Hunt Palmer Dawodu Iorfa Hutchinson Dunkley Brennan (New) Brown Galvin Luongo Adeniran Dele Bashiru Bannan A. Hunt Waldock Uwakwe Wing Green Windass Shodipo Hagan Jasper Paterson Adedoyin (New) (New) To be honest I thought Jasper was a striker and Uwakwe was a winger. Out of all the players we’ve had on trial during preseason, the only one we’ve signed is Adeniran (I think?) so wouldn’t be surprised if neither of the two current trialists join. I think we do need another senior winger and Sims would be perfect. Hopefully big Darren’s doing his best to persuade him to come here after working with him at Donny. Strikers need to be the priority now (as they have been all summer) although if we’re bringing one or two in on loan, I can see it taking a while yet. Another centre half (left footed ideally) would be nice, but maybe Brennan or Agbontohoma can step up? They’re 20/21 so the right age to start kicking on as pros now. Same with Hagan, Adedoyin, Hunt, FDB, Galvin, Dawodu… all around 20/21, hope we get them a decent loan somewhere if they’re nowhere near the first team here. I did think Galvin looked decent when he played last season though. IMO we’re 3 or 4 quality additions from having a squad that should be capable of challenging in this division, and I didn’t expect that a few weeks ago when the players weren’t getting paid. I’m beginning to almost look forward to this season now… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 Teams looking solid just need a cb for cover and a couple strikers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Random Task Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 A left sided centre half, a centre forward and more versatile attacker that can play wide and centrally will make the window a relative success considering we started it wondering whether the entire squad would be able to walk away for free. If I was being greedy I’d want more cover for creativity in the middle of the park if we’re playing 5 in midfield and a bit more at centre half if we ever want to play 3 at the back.

Strings Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 I love it when a plan comes together. Just the strikers and the left sided cb to sort then I believe we will have a good squad. Well done DM and hopefully the change in DC is a sign of things to come. I'm very pleased but will not get carried away, what I hope for is a season of more highs than lows. If we get promoted, so be it. If we don't, we don't. WAWAW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking maybe Moore wanted a different type of player to Bannan in the middle. It’s looked at times, in my opinion anyway, that Moore would like Bannan to play further forwards. When that has happened, Bannan seems to drift further and further back as the game goes on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adenarin strong cover from the bench and Windass option up front when fit. Palmer and Galvin decent wing back cover. Palmer can also fit in at centre half. Need three more for me. Another wide option and a centre back to cover Borner leaving plus another out and out centre forward. And if I’m being greedy another option up front. 2 keepers? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
