falconram Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 I know the standard is lower but I've been keeping an eye on Annan Atheltic midfield player Frenchmam Benjamin Luissint, 24 strong, powerful and quick. Would be a gamble, wouldn't cost much possibly nothing , just signed for another season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be a massive jump, from being a squad player in the Scottish 3rd division where he started only 15 games and came off the bench in 20 last season.

Hard worker who would fit Warne’s style and decent with the ball at his feet. @Big Trav Edited August 1, 2023 by WystonRam Premier ram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VulcanRam Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 17 hours ago, Ambitious said: I really like the look of Radcliffe, just seems to have something (to my eye), but definitely would like to see us get a centre midfielder on loan. It’s a position where a lot of teams are deep and you can get yourself a very good player on loan. Harvey White was a good footballer, but just seemed to s*** the bed at critical times - in terms of ability though he definitely had no problem playing at this level. Spurs have Alfie Devine who is 19 tomorrow and will no doubt be going out on loan. A very highly rated young player, a decent all round midfielder who is a physical player. Championship clubs will probably be interested but he’s a player, without even looking too much into it, who we could offer a platform for as a first step into football. And that's the problem, I'm not sure the middle of midfield in League 1 is anywhere a young player who's grown up at a PL club and never been tackled in his life should be learning his trade. White couldn't manage it, and it had nothing to do with his football ability. It took Dobbin over half a season to come good and get used to being kicked about. It's a big position, and I think I'd just prefer someone who has played more league football than a kid out of the reserves or youth setup who's never faced life in the middle of chaos and carnage.

Will Hughes Hair Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 1 hour ago, Yoxoram said: Thanks for the info. I hadn't really looked into the story, I just assumed it was BS. Yes please at 2.5 million, although I doubt it would be anywhere near that unless Hull have stupid money to burn. If they had stupid money, then I'm sure they would be going for someone better than Bird. Who do you think we’re going to replace him with for 2.5m? Current recruitment targets would indicate that free transfers in their thirties would be the preference. If we can find ones that aren’t liars, that is.

Mucker1884 Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 Was looking forward to the big kick off later, full of optimism, hope, and excitement. Come on here for the first time, and now I can't get this vision out of my head of Cashin running around midfield like a nutter!

Our midfielders are all good players but a touch lightweight at times. We need the daryll powell 2023 model some scoff but hes exactly what we need. him and vdl dominated that midfield area and gave the likes of simmo, willems and co the license to go play higher up where they did their best work Edited August 5, 2023 by NottsRam77 northantsram and Premier ram 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jram Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 I haven’t read this whole thread so apologies if im repeating anyone but are going to play 3 in midfield anyway? My understanding is he will play 5-2-3 Likely be Hourihane and Bird with two 10s and Collins no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ram1988 Posted August 6, 2023 Share Posted August 6, 2023 A centre midfielder with legs and creativity is badly lacking. Has to be a priority surely? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Sheriff Posted August 6, 2023 Share Posted August 6, 2023 (edited) After today i think its fair to say we need at least another cm. I dont get the bird playing higher up thing either to be honest. If hes got to where he is now being a half decent holding midfielder why would we try change that? Its clearly not his skillset Edited August 6, 2023 by The_Sheriff derbydaz22 and chadlad 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
