How many more players do we need to sign
With Happe signing centre of defence is sorted but how many more. A gkeeper if LV doesn't sign. A right back plus maybe a youger right back. 3 forwards. Is midfield sorted? Maybe a creative midfielder?

Re: How many more players do we need to sign
A lot...
GK
RB x2 (one perhaps a utility man covering CB and RB)
LW
RW
ST x3
Very little creativity in the side at present, wonder what KJ makes of Kemp and whether he'll be used as a wide player or somewhere within midfield

Re: How many more players do we need to sign
GK if lv goes
RB + cover
CM cover
2x wingers + cover
2x CF + cover
The covers could be loans

Re: How many more players do we need to sign
I'd ideally also want a CM playmaker, someone able to drive play from the middle of the park.

Re: How many more players do we need to sign
Sure but we already have 3 senior pros for those 2 positions, plus Hector, plus young Young. It ain’t going to happen.Smendrick Feaselberg wrote: ↑Mon Jun 21, 2021 10:47 pm I'd ideally also want a CM playmaker, someone able to drive play from the middle of the park.
The best we can hope for is Hector keeps progressing and makes the position his own.

Re: How many more players do we need to sign
Oli Hawkins gone to Mansfield - we missed out. Him and DJ up front was Jackett’s first-choice pairing before the summer started. Getting a bit worried about the standard of forward we’re going to end up with. Looking at Joe Piggott now, but can’t see him signing. Hopefully Vigouroux will stay and we’ll 1-0 our way to the top 7.

Re: How many more players do we need to sign
You’re probably right but there’s a real lack of creativity in there. Hectors a good ball carrier but haven’t seen him make a defence splitting pass, for example.Ronnie Hotdogs wrote: ↑Mon Jun 21, 2021 11:20 pmSure but we already have 3 senior pros for those 2 positions, plus Hector, plus young Young.

Re: How many more players do we need to sign
Midfield looks woefully weak to me. If Clay and Cisse are regulars next season then I can't see any chance of us going up.

Lloyd James was the last decent passer of the ball we had, someone like him please .Apple Wumble wrote: ↑Tue Jun 22, 2021 7:42 amYou’re probably right but there’s a real lack of creativity in there.

Re: How many more players do we need to sign
Hopefully Rhys Byrne, Shadrach Ogie, Jayden Sweeney, Antony Papadopoulos and Matt Young will get a few games this season, but I cannot see them be first team regulars next year. We need at least ten or twelve new players before the end of August.

Re: How many more players do we need to sign
How do you know he wanted that front two pairing. DJ was offered a contract before KJ arrived and we don’t know anything about whether he wanted Hawkins. I’d say the chances are Kenny has been going for different targets.Kitch’s Magic Toes wrote: ↑Mon Jun 21, 2021 11:39 pm Oli Hawkins gone to Mansfield - we missed out.
