July 28, 20206 yr Happy with our business so far. Salford are clearly going to be one of our chief rivals this season. COYWM
July 28, 20206 yr .Barrow fans were raving about the other loanee they had from B/burn, a centre half. (Platt ??). Maybe it's him next.

COYWM As long as we are in top 3 at the end of the season I don't care who's above us. We just dont want there to be another couple of big spenders like them.
July 29, 20206 yr Looks to me like Salford are in last chance saloon at trying to get up so are throwing some money about on players who are in the autumn of their career. If the salary limit comes in, let’s face it - who goes to Salford if they get the same money at 80% of the other clubs who come in for them.

By all accounts, Evatt favours a 3-5-2 with one of a central 3 midfielders in a more advanced role so depth wise I'm seeing us currently looking like: GK: New Signing(NS), NS - Gilks?, Alexander RCB: Brockbank, NS CB: NS, Delaney LCB: Taft, Senior RWB: NS, NS CM: Comley, NS CM: Sarcevic, White LWB: Bunney?, NS CAM: Crawford, Darcy ST: Doyle, NS ST: Politic, Faal

For me our "behind the striker" types are Crawford and Politic, because they can beat a man, thread through subtle little passes and shoot. There will be times when we don't see them for 20 minutes and if this is in the 2nd half we'll be saying they need to be subbed, if we aren't on front foot. Darcy more of a dynamic up and down, never stops running type - but unlikely to score or even assist except from his decent dead ball deliveries. I'd have him in the team 90 minutes every game (tiredness permitting) because winning or losing I see him with a constant involvement - building play, breaking up play, getting in the faces of opponents, not letting them settle and underrated quality passes at speed. I'm guessing this is what the new signing White is like too so probably only room for one of them. I honestly dont think Evatt will realise what Darcy is like yet.
July 29, 20206 yr Darcy breaking up the play? He either plays as a No.10 or a wide forward for me. We certainly don't want him playing behind the half way line.
July 29, 20206 yr Darcy is a link man. Playing between the lines. Wouldn’t want him anywhere near our back line he’s one you give the ball to once you’ve got it not expect him to go and get it Edited July 29, 20206 yr by barrycowdrill
