Thing is they’re in a difficult market as they can’t spend fees and they’re starting their business weeks later than everyone else. So they’ve got a load of 30 + year old knowing they’re desperate for players and not much time to get them in, so could be some decent moves for the players. I think Derby will be a problem in this division in 23/24. I think it’s very tough to build a side capable of promotion on short notice, but fair play to them if they do. Hourihane is far far too good for our league. Tragic if he goes there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starting the season with only 3, with one being the sadly too injury-prone Iorfa, would be a huge risk. Palmer is a decent back-up but not a CB. We can’t start a 352 season with 3 CBs on the books. A bonus would be a 3rd CF to cover for Gregory or Smith. Relying on two non-strikers as cover, Paterson and Windass, could leave us wanting. Imo we need 4...maybe. 2 cb's to replace Brennen and Dunk.. A wilks type player for NML And a CM to replace Wing.. If we were being greedy I'd chuck another keeper in and a LWB.... Obviously that's IMPO...UTO... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah missed that Doubt that Clowes will be extravagant in his transfer activities, will probably do a Manderic and get it ready for some big investors, maybe he has some lined up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s a very good signing for L1, although I the point I was making was more in regards to having to offer a lot of 30 + year olds bigger deals because they’re in need of pretty much rebuilding an entire team. Although I’m not fussed on any of other either signings myself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just read that they are under restrictions from the EFL on what they can spend on transfers, wages, agents fees. Each signing has to through the EFL business plan first.

Signs for derby? we must of offered him peanuts Imagine if we both offered the same money. However, Derby play with full backs, offering Mendez Laing more freedom and minutes on the pitch. You would run to Derby to avoid the defensive duties. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need two CB to come in although I'd be happy with just Dean signing as we'd have Iorfa, Ihiekwe, Heneghan, Palmer and Dean which would be OK. Wilks would be ideal as we don't have many attacking wide players. Don't think we need cover anywhere else really especially CM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SallyCinnamon Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 I think it’s a shame we’ve lost both NML and Luongo. We’re yet to replace them with better. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wigan didn’t do it on short notice though They we’re taken over in March 2021 before the 20/21 season had even ended so they had plenty of time to prepare for the 21/22 season? Derby have been taken over 29 days before the season and have next to no players. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbf, Vaulks could prove to be an upgrade on Luongo. NML offered something, but he seemed to go a bit off the boil following an encouraging start. Not sure he was really suited to play the wingback role tbh. For me, we need at least one more to offer some competition to Johnson on that left side. Really do think a big part of what cost us against Sunderland was the first choice wingbacks being a bit knackered. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groundhopping Owl Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 4 hours ago, ZicoSterland2 said: They haven't got a squad at moment. If he signs for them he will be expected to be in the side as he won't be a cheap option at this level. To be honest he was to inconsistent for me and his end product was often poor , think there is better options out there. Pretty much agree - basically anyone who signs for them early will be a starter at first since they’ve got no one else, it’ll be a good chance for NML and Wildsmith to stake their claims. But I reckon as the transfer window goes on to Derby will bring in a fair few and these two will end up more as squad players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robswfc Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 He’s poo . His pace and power caused some problems but no end product and lost any enthusiasm I had for him when he failed to track back to support Storey 2 mins after coming on, which cost us the PO semi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
