Quite unbalanced, don't you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do see what you mean but a back three playing behind energetic wing backs and box to box midfielders seems reasonable, just a suggestion really Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rampage Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 We definitely need a new striker, a centre half and a full back asap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We shouldn't be looking at backups for any position. Any new signings should be potential first-name on the team sheet quality and I would suggest we look at a winger and a pacey striker. I've previously suggested Nathan Dyer and Nahki Wells and have seen no reason to change my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've previously suggested Nathan Dyer and Nahki Wells and have seen no reason to change my mind. I completely agree with Nakhi Wells, that would be a great signing and I think he would fit in. However, I'm not convinced by Dyer although we could do with some wide players he just doesn't score enough goals. I've said (although unrealistic) it's worth having a look at someone like Bakary Sako at Crystal Palace, proven goal scorer at this level and out of favour at Palace.

rammieib Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 I'm actually liking the way the Irish are set up at this tournament. 4-1-2-1-2. It would allow on paper Thorne, Bryson, Hendrick, Hughes to all slot in, but would the full backs be able to provide the width? Ince/Hughes could both play behind two strikers. Hendrick and Bryson would have the reigns to push forward at will but there would be a huge onus on the full backs to be offensive and defensive.

sheepshagger123 Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 might be ambitious but Iwobi from Arsenal could be a good loan signing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walsall_Ram Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 Huddersfield have signed a striker on loan. Similar to Nahki Wells.. Which obviously could free him up. I can seriously see a £3/4/5 million plus Butterfield for Wells this summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ram@Lincoln Posted June 25, 2016 Share Posted June 25, 2016 I think well be seeing Butterfield staying, Chris Powell loves him and found it hard to sell him at Huddersfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReyDCFC Posted June 25, 2016 Share Posted June 25, 2016 What about Anthony Knockaert? Was class for Brighton since joining them on loan. He could add that quality we lack in the final third and not to mention is insane at set pieces. He also has gained promotion to the premier league under Pearson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
