No McGoldrick to cover his arse for missed chances this year.  We need a goalscorer and pronto and someone with productive pace.

I think we will hard pushed to find someone with pace and is a natural goal scorer without demand a big fee. Alfie May was my pick of centre fowards but obviously that won't happen as he has gone to Cheltenham.

I feel we may only bring 3 more in. A couple of forwards and a CM with energy who can get about the pitch.

Realistically somewhere between 4th and 8th. 

We've lost knight beilek didz, roberts Dobbin. 

See who else we bring in. There are still 3-4 other good clubs who have strengthened even those who finished mid table. 

 

I feel we should try and bring Dobbin back in on loan if we can. Has legs stretcha the play and can across the front line.

Can we afford to be one dimensional for the whole match, every match? What if the opposition work out a way to combat that style of play? Surely we need a Martin type player, preferably a bit younger, who could completely change the way we play, when required?

Well said. We can't be one dimensional playing the same way game week in gameweek out for 90 minutes. A target man who brings others in play would certainly give defenders something else to think about. 

Maybe we can sing the Chrissy Martin song again? That will convinces Paul Warne to sign him up.

I want Halaand to sign NOW!!!

I don't agree either. I do feel however feel Fozzy deserves a good turn out.

This sounds like the opening line for a really bad 70's American cop show.  I can see it getting binned after the pilot episode.

This is league One. We need to be realistic who we can bring in. No-one would scoff at McGoldrick playing up top for us if he signed another contract.

He looked sharp on the pre season training video I've seen. I think he is underrated and gets an undeserved amount of stick by fans.

A big no for me! A strike force of Collins Sharp, and Washington would worry me going into the season, especially with the sheer amount of games in the season. 

Washington and Sharp may be a good partnership. Washington with legs doing the pressing and streching the play, Sharp making sure he is in the right place at the right time to put the ball away. 

Collo would be able to play with either.

I’m really hoping we get someone like Godden. 
Could we please talk about other players on a different thread?

Thanks awfully 

He would be a solid addition. I presume it relies on Coventry getting someone else in before they let him go.

How will we line up next season? 352/3412 or 343/ 3421 

That surley depends on the type of fowards we need to bring in.

Chris Martin was perfect under Mclaren in a 4-3-3 system with willing runners around him

Certainly not Warnes kind of player using the high press with bags of energy 

I think players with catchy songs should be considered as part of the selection process.

I rather have that lad or chris martin back personally he score a hateful at this level.

Come on Chrissy Martin

score some goals for Derby!!

He isn't going to do much running and pressing at 37 years old to be a typical Paul Warne player. He will score goals and put his chances away though. 

I feel our next signings will determine how we line up. If we get a couple more centre fowards then a 352 will look like our go to formation but if we get a couple of number 10s or inside fowards then it will be a 343/3421. I feel we are still an attacking option or two short but it all depends on how Paul wants us to line up on what our next targets should be.

@Big Travis the man in the know !!

Young, talented wing back to add competition to the wide areas. Only young and will only improve. Great business getting him in for no transfer fee.

Will Ward or Wilson start as the number 1 right wing back?

Interesting one. He could score goals for fun and be the difference maker in League One but seeing as him and many of our fans don't get on I can't see it happening.

With us having Collins and Washington who are both the other side of 30. I think somone like Bonis would be an exciting addition. Raw with lots of potential who already knows where the back of the net is.

Another full back and another foward has to be the priority. Our full backs will need keeping fresh and will need reinforcing as it will be the most physically demanding role in our side. Then we clearly lack goals and goal scorers.

Hard to call if we are going to play a 352, 3412 or a 343 (with inside fowards or number 10's). 

Either way our our back 3 looks solid now.

Sonny Bradley or Fozzy for me.

No longer "twitching". Our sqaud looks and feels a lot better after tonight.
