TodwickOwl Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 Given we will be sticking to a 3-5-2, then we’re after: Keeper 3 CB 2 Wingbacks 2 CM 2 Strikers The following are gone from today: BPF Hutch Storey Dean Dunkley Gibson Shodipo Luongo Mendez Laing Pato Kamberi Berahino John Jules Sow We won’t be able to sign the vast amount we did this year, budget will be cut again - we won’t have the squad depth available to sign any of the quality we brought in. Who would you keep? Dean Gibson The rest can go - we desperately desperately need someone with some pace at the back, hopefully Gibson can overcome his issues and Dean can be the commander at the back. This needs to be another new dawn, last night was a shambles of the highest order - but it highlighted anyone with any pace can really get at us and cause us issues. We need a proper midfield dynamo who is a boss - and Luongo even looked leggy and out of sorts last night, pair them with Byers and Bannan and we’re OK. A tricky, pacey winger to get in behind to provide some crosses in - I wouldn’t re sign NML, he doesn’t have a head to play that wing back position. And we all know we need some fresh legs up top - we can’t rely on Windass being fit and a 34 year old leading the way all year. Finally, Moore won’t be sacked, which ultimately will cost us yet again as we’re engrained in giving failure another chance - we need someone to take on the foundations and basics and get us to that next level - he isn’t the man to do this and we’ll likely waste another third of the year watching us fumble around being scared to attack teams in the third tier of football. 3 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think theres every chance that these guys will be here for the coming season. Hutch Dean Dunkley Mendez Laing Pato Berahino Sow Dawson will come back. He'll be our number one. Other than that I think that we'll see more of Dele-Bashiru and Brennan will come back into the fold. We'll need a new striker and a couple of midfield monsters.

yeadonowl Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 Given that the keeper from the team of the year in the division below is coming back then I’d say he should be given a chance 4 centre half’s required seeing as Hutch, Dean, Storey, Dunkley and Gibson are all potentially leaving 2 central midfielders. 1 of these has to be a strong defensive midfielder 3 or 4 strikers. We need a mixture of pace and strength I’d only be offering contracts to Luongo and maybe Hutchinson, the rest need to go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get some new blood in who can become something here - them two above are both on their way out 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WalthamOwl Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 (edited) Not sure we will release that many players. Wouldn’t be to bothered if we did trouble. Another massive summer coming up. Edited May 10, 2022 by WalthamOwl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRUCE LEE Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 I’d try and keep Storey and Luongo and release the rest but there’s next to no chance Luongo will end up back in London or abroad, that was his last game for us PNE will likely want to look at Storey again after he changed our season We’ll probably end up with John Jules back if Moore is still in charge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twolaptops Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 All on that list can go.....too many going through the motions....most are "nearly" men that got above their station when in their own minds they believed they were superstars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That can't beat a press. We played 352 to fit around the players, we have a chance now to go back to the formation DM originally wanted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might see Gibson and Jules back however as probably cheap. Dean would be my priority but his wages are surely too much for L1? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeonLeon Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 Be very surprised if Dunkley, Luongo and Paterson are still here. Dunkley has pretty much all but confirmed he’s leaving on twitter in recent weeks, Paterson has looked fed up for months about his lack of game time and Luongo was pretty none committal when asked at Christmas.

Guest OrlandoUnTrustful Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 As D-Day approaches, Colonel Chansiri hands the roguish Major Reisman (Darren Moore) an important assignment: He must train a team of players to parachute across enemy lines and gain promotion from League 1. The players, recruited from murderers, rapists and criminals on death row, are promised riches and hero status. In spite of their history, the 12 men prove a spirited and courageous unit. Led by Major Reisman, they will exact revenge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueandwhitematt Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 (edited) This is the crux of it. All this talk about continuity and we just need a new signing or two, it’s not just how it’s going to pan out sadly. I think we’re in for another big summer, either with out of contracts or several players not being willing to stick around in L1 for another season. And then it’s on Chansiri into how much he is willing to spend (through desire or actually what he has available) to how it’s rebuilt. Such a missed opportunity.

UpGrahamHydesSleeve Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 I really want Gibson to stay. Think he’s due to be released, and left footed centre halves are like hens teeth. Could be a bargain. I think Berahino will stay, and he should. He’s shown glimpses of form this season, and in my opinion should have played tonight. Windass is a luxury player who doesn’t fit into the team and we should sell him if we can. if we did change formation then NML should be offered a contract too. In the cold light of day we have seen some of the best football this season that I can remember watching. The players enjoy working with Moore so some might be persuaded to stay and I think he can get a few decent loans in as well. We need to go for autos next season, though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
