Leigh Curtis thinks Sibley could leave and try something new and also thinks Wildsmith could well be gone.

I think if you move Nelson in the centre he wouldn’t be as effective as his pace and strength in recovery down that right channel is what makes him so good. I think it’s always good to have selection problems rather than look for them.

Conor Coady linked with Stoke, would be absolutely perfect to replace Bradley in the centre of a back three. Bags of experience, great range of passing and certainly can still play at the level at only 31. Also lives locally which we have seen can get deals done ie Hourihane, Mcgoldrick etc. if the wages can be sorted I don’t see why we wouldn’t do it. I get people want to sign younger players and I do agree but I think you need a been there done it type player dictating and barking orders from the centre of a defence. Would imagine it’d be a loan as he’s contracted till 2026.

That was for league games only

Yep all public 23/24 - 27,278 22/23 - 27,259 21/22 - 23,010

I use an app called Fotmob and used the player comparison option, they use opta stats which is also used by many big outlets and betting sites.

Definitely a player I’d like us to take, Barnsley fans reckon he’s known he’s leaving for a while now so performances have dropped which is normal. Only 25 and a free. We need 4 midfielders so this would be a good start.

I do agree it’s hard to properly compare him with Ebou, just thought the stat comparison would show people the true meaning of Francois numbers rather than looking at some random numbers p90.

Tyrese Francois, a 23 year old Australian out of contract at Fulham this summer on loan at Vejle Boldklub in Denmark where we know we’re looking. Fulham have kept him around for the last few years giving him the odd game here and there. His defensive stats are incredible and is the 98th percentile for defensive actions. His defensive stats in comparison to Ebou Adams per 90 to show how good his stats actually are. He’s left footed so the two of them could actually play together pretty should we get them. Lots of positives about him as he knows the English game, works hard, is on a free and is at a good age with up side.

Ronan Curtis isn’t championship level, the rest of the players you mentioned would all be good options.

If we’re looking at leagues such as Denmark and Netherlands it wouldn’t surprise me if we’re looking at Austria. I also think the Austrian league is a higher standard than Denmark. There is two good strikers out of contract that I would look at Sinan Karweina (25) and Lukas Fridrikas (26). Sinan Karweina is a hard working fast striker who has 12 goals and 6 assists in 29 games this season for SK Klagenfurt. He’s only 5 foot 7 so couldn’t play as a single striker in warnes system but definitely could play in a two or as a winger. Secondly then, Lukas Fridrikas has 10 goals in 20 games this season after getting 15 goals and 6 assists in 33 games last season. The Austrian has a good goal record and could be a nice addition on a free from Lustenau.

Probably just a lazy link

Warne said in his interview last week that it would be this week. But who knows they could be waiting to sort one or two things out before releasing. I did see Owen Bradley was doing a good bye interview with max bird today. So maybe he’s at work to do a few more interviews after it’s released potentially.

For all the dreamers and people hoping. Will Hughes has signed a year extension.

I think if we can get Thierry Small on a free he’d be a great option. Not to start but to have around the squad as he looks promising at only 19. Our academy lads could have recommended him as he was at Southampton previously.

I’d imagine the list will be out tomorrow

good news

Josh Knights contract is up now, would definitely take him from Peterborough. Would be perfect in the middle or the right of a back three. Only 26 so not in his prime years just yet. Warne will definitely be looking at him as he’s 6 foot 3 and has 6 goals and 3 assists. He can also play in defensive midfield and right back.

Does he mean maybe under 4 for both individually, I fecking hope so anyways.

I don’t think so he’s only played 53 games in his last 4 seasons for comparison Wildsmith played 54 last season alone. He worked under Warne at Rotherham for 2 seasons aswell on loan happily rejoining them the second season.

Think we’re better at relating names and letters to positions rather than just first names. Centre back = Curtis - Nelson, Davies Left wing = Tom - Lawrence, Barkhuizen No.10 = first name beginning with M - Matej Vydra, Mason Mount, Max Bird Striker = having a C - Collins, Colin Kazim, Chris Martin Can probably tell I’m derby deprived

His contract expires in 2026 so cant see any chance of a free

I’d love him to play with the 21s until January next season and then try get him a 6 month loan if the academy lads reckon he’s ready.

Niall McAndrew looks like he’s gonna be an unbelievable player mental how well he’s settled in with the u21s at just 16.

I’d also add LWB Nicky Caden to this as he was another key player for that FGR side alongside Wilson and Ebou and he has 15 goals and 20 assists in his last 3 seasons. He’s on a free so I’d definitely have a look at him.
