Stevowanderer Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 9 hours ago, Zico said: John played both of those two as well And we no doubt had good results with Iredale played LWB with Bradley But I'm on about at the same time Jones and Iredale at the same time It's not happened yet I don't think and I hope it doesn't It won't be like when we had Fossey and John or Bradley and John Ps Mbete started both those games too but I don't want him back Fair enough. I agree we need 1 of them to be an attacking outlet at least in most games. Wouldn’t mind both at the same time in a massive away game against a Derby or something at least to start with. I think we may end up bringing in 7/8 this summer so the squad could look very different in a month or 2. 2 gks, 2 wing backs, a cb, a holding mid, a no. 10 (or 2) and another striker would be my guess. I think we may end up losing someone like Johnston if we get a decent offer and I’d be surprised if Evatt hasn’t moved John on by the start of the season. Did Sadlier’s loan get made permanent in the end? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was said that Williams earned his extra 12 months contract because of how well he played in that position. So cant see us going for anyone else now.

Wanderlust Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 16 hours ago, Popeye doyle said: Can’t see it myself at £1 million. The missus has family in Germany who are massive football fans (Mainz 05) so I asked about this guy and they all said he is a fantastic young player - a strong battling midfielder with great touch and passing - a bit like a young Declan Rice - and that he'll definitely be a contender for the full German national team. If they're right - and they do know what they're talking about IME - he could be a brilliant signing for us. Problem is he'd probably cost over a million so it would be a "marquee signing". Whether or not he'd want to come to us is another story - but maybe Shazza and IE can work their magic and maybe Kacha could put in a good word about his time here (if only the fans had been kinder to him ) At 23, he could be very good business.

Not seen or heard much about Herr Flick , although I have heard his family got rich off the back of a painting of a fallen Madonna with a fine pair.

Williams extension was because he had an appearance clause in contract. We definitely need at least 1 more centre back especially if Jones ends up as one of our wing back options this season. Wouldn’t surprise me if MJ and Sadlier are moved on. Don’t think either will play regularly. Edited June 16, 2023 by Stevowanderer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He improved the midfield by signing Karl Henry I'm sure he'd have opted for two central midfielders and started two up front if we'd have been able to afford good enough midfielders to do it It was pretty clear we couldn't afford them, though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually think Parky made the right call We'd started Le Fondre up front on his own quite regularly in the matches before and results had been horrendous (the defeat to Burton Albion the week before being the worst of them) For that 4-2-3-1 to work, we needed a physical presence up top and starting Wilbraham kept us in it until that crazy last half hour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
