Surely that`s irrelevant if we`re restricted to 23. Curtains and ram59 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Scarlet Pimpernel Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 I thought Morrison was different class. He'd. Be my first signing. angieram, tombomb and Curtains 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kernow Posted July 20, 2021 Author Share Posted July 20, 2021 19 minutes ago, Leeds Ram said: Aluko, Baldock, Wisdom, Menghi and Jagielka. At least we're guaranteed games (barring bad injuries) from 4 of them and it addresses the big critical needs in the squad. I don't love our midfield tbh but if Morrison is our only option to bulk that up then I'd pass on him and rather get some depth in defence and attack that at least gives us a chance to survive. Would be my 5 too. Covers a wide area of the pitch and gives us decent reliability. Morrison is obviously talented and may have impressed Rooney, however his track record would make me wary of making him one of the 5 if that’s all we’re allowed. I don’t think we’re in a position to sign players and hope they come good right now. Jagielka would have the edge on Davies for me as his longevity and injury record at the end of his career has been better. Byrne Jag Mengi Buchanan with Wisdom and Forsyth to cover RB, LB and CB is still incredibly thin but we don’t have much choice right now. If we are later allowed to sign more during this window, then defence would again need to be prioritised. Leeds Ram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stearman would be only one missing out (but only until we sell Knight). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still think we have a very weak midfield but like you say Morrison is a massive risk that can't be mitigated after 1 performance.

Dean (hick) Saunders Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 I’m hoping the pot is slightly bigger than that. If we are not confident of Umbongo being lifted before end of the window I would keep a slot open for a prem loaner at centre forward (prob youngster like delap) which probably will only be sorted late on.

Mate the EFL have won again . Its diabolical restricting us to 5 . The whole thing stinks. No sentiment in Football . Wayne has to decide and I’m sure he will be conflicted by this as am I.

And wages can't be a particular problem as we can't pay more than £600k/season for any player. Menghi has to be one of them. He’s improving rapidly, athletic, the least likely to get injured and has more talent than anyone else on the list ram59 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also factors are what option gives best chance of player development. (EG. West Brom bench vs Rams pitch).
