JfR Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 Can see the logic of Jagielka. Adds another CB to the squad and also fills the position of third choice goalkeeper. Two birds, one stone. Animal is a Ram, Jourdan, Jimbo Ram and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anag Ram Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 Actually, if you imagine a back three of Davies, Jagielka and Mengi, you would lose very little in the air, you would have two great organisers of the younger players and Mengi's pace to cover behind them. That's of course if they can stay fit. You could afford to let Byrne and Buchanan press on and you would need Knight and Shinnie to protect them against deep runners, but if we can find the right front three, it might be a solid team. We rarely looked like getting hammered last year. We had quite a lot of possession. We just had nothing up front. That's our priority area. The guys we have are good subs but not sufficient goal threats. Bosshogg, Mr. P, Carnero and 4 others 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCFC1388 Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 Get them in to train and see how they do, absolutely no harm in doing this at all. Will give us numbers for preseason amd buy a little time to see where we are at with a takeover. Last summer id imagine the main targets relied on a takeover but because it didnt happen we got CKR on a free but had him in training with the team whilst we waited.

DCFC1388 Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 I do think fans need to realise what sort of players we're going to be in the market for this summer especially whilst no takeover is done and an embargo is in place. We will have to make do and whoever comes in give them our full support, whats the point in moaning about them, it helps nobody.

I would hope we will all get behind the team and cheer them on whoever plays but trying to get excited about signing a 38 year old defender who has seen better days isn’t easy.

Kamikaze Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 Hoping if either are signed that they are on a pay as you play / incentive laden contract because neither are worth the max 11.5k we are supposedly allowed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramslad1992 Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 Remember Warnock never used to have a keeper on the bench at Sheff u as Jagielka was good enough to be the back up apparently. cost efficient and means we only need one goalkeeper on the books. ? Oh and he’s old as duck... it’s the Derby way! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
