birch-chorley Posted May 3, 2015 Posted May 3, 2015 Needs some muscle that's for sure, a couple of enforcers through the backbone - been too lightweight for too long For that reason I thought Craig Davies would get a new deal, before his injury he was immense and really gave defenders a tough time of it. since his return from injury though he's just not made the same impression Fwiw I would keep Eidur on as a squad player if he'd sign a peanuts contract and of course ALF if we could secure him That would be ALF, Eidur, Craid Davies Clayton & Clough(enough there to reach the play offs? - maybe) Midfield wise I'd like to see Pratley stay, he has the physicality required along with a nack of scoring, vela should also play a part in midfield for me but then that's about it, we need more, a lot more I don't know where to start with our defence, we get players like Dervitte in who have looked great at this level elsewhere and they seem to get found out playing for us, see Baptiste as well for this. Wheatear should also be more than capable of being on of the best at this level. Should imagine they will all play a part next season, hopefully it will just take 1 good defensive signing to pull them all together as a solid unit. Maybe it's the middle of the park where we need to get the defence right. Quote
ex_midlandwhite Posted May 3, 2015 Posted May 3, 2015 The defence can be sorted just by better organisation if we get that stronger midfielder in and midfielder track runs properly which I don't think Danns or Bannon have done. Agree on Eidur. If we can get Alf then I think that is the main one sorted. Quote
HomerJay Posted May 3, 2015 Posted May 3, 2015 A Gary speed type midfielder would improve is no end. No idea who that player is though Quote

Was better when attacking, but we have better in Clayton. Davies, even Kellet Quote

glossopWANDERER Posted May 3, 2015 Posted May 3, 2015 Two to three new solid defenders needed and a physical presence in midfielder, would keep c Davies but he is to injury prone so for that reason may be best to look else were. Keeping clough fit will be key. Keeping Alf would be nice but wouldn't want to use to much of whatever budget we have on him Quote
Matt Lofthouse Posted May 3, 2015 Posted May 3, 2015 Andrews? Mills? Beckford?Deleted from the archive. Quote
Ratwhite Posted May 3, 2015 Author Posted May 3, 2015 Andrews? Mills? Beckford? Andréws out of contract Mills will go Beckford not sure about contract but, can't see him back here Quote
only1swanny Posted May 3, 2015 Posted May 3, 2015 wasn't sure on the contract front with them.. cant see mills being on massive money tbh, and started the season well.. with Mills, Wheater, Devite and Baptiste, we should have a solid combination between them, shame it hasn't really worked Quote

Guest Posted May 3, 2015 Posted May 3, 2015 I'd like Vela, Clough, Clayton and Walker to stay. And Bogdan, but not on too much money. And Pratley. The rest, I don't mind if I never see them in a white shirt again Quote
only1swanny Posted May 3, 2015 Posted May 3, 2015 you need some new specs just done some superb googling, wow.... shocked... get rid quick !! Quote
Ratwhite Posted May 3, 2015 Author Posted May 3, 2015 just done some superb googling, wow.... shocked... get rid quick !! Exactly. Could three or four gems for that.. Quote

Mounts Kipper Posted May 3, 2015 Posted May 3, 2015 (edited) In an ideal world id keep the following. Bogdan, Vela, Clough, Mills, Wheater, Clayton, M. Davies, Craig Davies, Baptiste, Danns, Pratley, Le Fondre, Ream. Fear we're going to have to keep a load who are not on this list and lose out on a few on this list.

Fear we're going to have to keep a load who are not on this list and lose out on a few on this list. Can't argue with that list. Let's hope the players leaving / out of contract will make up the needed reduction in wage bill. Leaves Lennon needing to gamble on half a dozen free transfers and loans to make a competitive team for next season. Quote
onlyoneawalker Posted May 3, 2015 Posted May 3, 2015 Craig davies is out of contract isn't he? Trotter and Moxey are likely to be going no where fast which is an issue in key positions Quote

frank_spencer Posted May 3, 2015 Posted May 3, 2015 With players still on contract at the club next season my 1st XI line up is Fitzsimons Baptiste, Wheater, Dervite, Ream Danns, Vela Feeney, Davies, Walker Clayton With Spearing, Trotter, Twardzik, Threlkeld, Kellet, Clough, Moxey,Chris Eaves,Hayden White, Quade Taylor left from those who've played 1st team footy Looking at that Keeper and Striker are #1 job for Lenny this summer.

ex_midlandwhite Posted May 3, 2015 Posted May 3, 2015 3 of our defenders were top 3 in our player of the season vote so most of our fans don't think there is too much wrong with our defenders. I don't agree but there it is. Not fussed about keeping Any of Mills, Wheater, Ream or Devote but whoever the back four is they just need to be properly organised and have midfielders that track runners. I'll be gutted if we retain Heskey but not Eidur. Hood to hear the optimism from many that Alf is done deal, that is a big one. Quote
