If Warne is using the system from the end of last season playing 2 10’s behind a 9 you could argue NML, Sibley and a new signing fight it out for those two spots, possibly with Barkhuizen an option too (would much rather see him shoehorned into that than wingback). If Warne plays more of a 3-5-2 where do you accommodate two new 10s along with Barkhuizen, NML and Sibley? I know we need options in the squad, just conscious of too many players blocking the way for others. I’d really like Sibley to stay and have a run as one of the main 10s Edited June 15, 2023 by Caerphilly Ram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ideally, we would have Wildsmith, Cashin & Bird plus 8 new players starting opening day but not sure how realistic that is..

I would guess Max £2m plus transfer income. That will include what we spend on transfer fees, loan fees agent fees and signing on fees but not wages. Cannot see us spending more than £750k on any one player JakeDCFC 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost of Clough Posted June 15, 2023 Share Posted June 15, 2023 Ross Sykes - CB - Played very well at Accrington in 20/21. Aerially dominant and a threat from set pieces. Only 24 but is on a long term contract at St Gilloise in the Belgian top division. Derry Murkin - LWB - 5 assists for FC Volendam in the Dutch league. Born in England but moved to the Netherlands aged 4. 23 years old, 1 year left on his contract. Scored 20 goals for their U21 side in 18/19 (playing as a winger). Converted to LWB in 20/21.

Probably will end up at a championship team though. Based on Brannigan’s performance in our first home game last season I’m not sure. Spent 70 mins imitating thug life with zero effect. Then they switched and tried to play football and he was transformed. So, and here’s the kicker. A traditional Derby footballing team #superioritycomplex and it’s a big yes. A Warne outrun and outfight them team? Not so sure. And can I caveat this with I want Warne to succeed. His approach is no different from Alex Ferguson - have better players, well motivated and harder working than the opposition. Even when that approach isn’t working, you can still win a a European Cup Final. But you need players who can run through brick walls (mentally and physically). Is that Brannigan? Not sure.

Upfront fees on a single purchase limited by the club to £500k. 100% of sales to be made available to boost this and higher value purchases like Bristol Rovers strikers will be considered on merit.

Srg Posted June 15, 2023 Share Posted June 15, 2023 Tarique Fosu. Winger, 27, been on loan at Rotherham and been at Oxford. So will be known by everyone who matters. Released by Brentford.

Caerphilly Ram Posted June 15, 2023 Share Posted June 15, 2023 (edited) Josh Ginnelly is a 26 year old “forward” (I think wide player) who scored 13 and assisted 7 goals for Hearts the season just gone. His contract is up and he allegedly has offers from clubs in the championship and league one, with a move back to England on the cards to be closer to family (originally from Nuneaton). Could be a decent attacking option on a free, but get we’d be competing with championship clubs and one of the big Israeli sides allegedly.

Jubbs Posted June 15, 2023 Share Posted June 15, 2023 Someone I'd happily take. Perhaps we can work something out with Bristol in the Knight transfer. Premier ram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JakeDCFC Posted June 15, 2023 Share Posted June 15, 2023 Decided to look around at upcoming free agents that have pretty solid value after the seasons they've put in last year and was curious what you guys would think about Derby possibly bringing in some of them? Archie Collins Joe Ward Sam Smith (not the singer) Josh Key Macauley Bonne Matthew Pennington Cameron Brannagan Michael Hector Luke Thomas Harvey Knibbs There is a ton of quality free agents available so feel free to bring up any others that you may have seen or liked.

Srg Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 Pretty much all of these bar Luke Thomas (because we've had him and he's a knobber) have been mentioned in the transfer suggestions thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
