Marriott .. hes a striker not a AM , if he plays a role like that hes going to have to be getting in the box a lot because hes a natural finisher. GK ... think its obvious we prob are looking for a new keeper id expect they will be starting RB ... is Bateman ready yet to be the number 2 , not sure. CM .... think we need at least 1 CM , dont think Knight and Sibley can be relied on to be direct back up. RW .... deffo need a classy wide player in ,zoon looks good so far but didnt set the world on fire last season. In summary i believe we are probably 4 quality players away from having a really competitive squad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its come too soon for Cocu, and we spent most of the summer waiting for Frank to sort himself out. I would broadly agree with your assessment, but a left wing / attacking midfielder would be my preference. The transfer market has been mad, but a couple of players who have moved would have been perfect for us. I suspect its too late now to do anything other than loans.

Yeh i think one of the main problems being that Cocu will want plenty of time to assess what we have first before he decides to bring anybody in. I have a sneaky feeling though we may have one marquee signing for money but that may come very close to the start of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edtheram Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 I presume Cocu played 4-3-3 at the weekend? GK - Roos / New GK RB - Bogle CB - Keogh CB - Evans / New CB LB - Malone / New LB CDM - Huddlestone CM - Shinnie CM - Dowell LW - Lawrence / New LW RW - Bennett / New RW ST - Waghorn Bench - Mitchell / Roos, Davies, Forsyth, Bird, Lawrence, Marriott, Martin.

Ghost of Clough Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Half of the team pretty much picks itself. Roos Bogle Keogh CB Malone CM CM CM RW CF Lawrence CB - Evans appears to be first choice partner to Keogh. But is that due to easing Davies back into things after his injury? CM - Who knows? Lots of options which will help with keeping things fresh. Holmes, Dowell, Huddlestone, Shinnie. Then there's Thorne, Evans, Bird, Knight and Sibley. Even tougher to choose just 2 if we lineup as we did against Burton. RW - Bennett or Jozefzoon (or Anya). Bennett probably edges it. CF - Waghorn, Marriott or Martin? The best all round forward is Waghorn so probably him at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lawrence Waghorn I think this is the correct answer with the players we have at the moment. Is possible that we put two at the base of the midfield with Huddlestone in there, and Cocu also seems to have a Bennett fetish like Frank did, although, likes him central.

Probably is what we'd go with currently, especially given Marriott's injury. I would have Bennett over Zoon on the wing though. We are crying out for a new GK, CB and RW though. And probably another midfielder, there isn't much depth there if any of those 3 (or Huddlestone) get injured, I think 4 additions to what we have now would see us competitive enough to be around the playoff mix. And hopefully 1 or 2 of the young lads can break through and make an impact during the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaltRam Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 Roos (I thought he was poo after Wembley but did well today so he's nailed down the shirt for 46 games) Bogle ('s replacement after he's sold) Keogh ('s replacement - always got a mistake in him) Loanee New LB Loanee Dowell One of the kids on rotation Loanee Marriott (until he doesn't score for an hour, then Waghorn, then Martin, then panic) New RW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JW37 Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 Roos Bogle Keogh Davies Malone Huddlestone Holmes Shinnie Dowell Waghorn Marriott Waghorn and Marriott have to be on the pitch at that same time Current wingers aren’t offering anything... Bennett is a striker, Lawrence is a no.10 and Zoon hasn’t been good enough and then there’s Anya Allow the 2 attacking fullbacks to do what they do best and Huddlestone drops in to make a temporary back 3 Nice balance in midfield with work rate let Dowell do what he’s good at and feed the front 2 Holmes and Shinnie the engine room that allows Huddlestone to play and the fullbacks to bomb on Still need at least 4 incomings to be a top 6 squad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
