Loughborough Ram Posted July 2 Share Posted July 2 Oldie McBurnie been released by Sheff Utd, at Championship level he would be a great signing. Imagine a dressing room with McBurnie and Ebou Adams, there'd be some fun and games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost of Clough Posted July 2 Share Posted July 2 GK: Daniel Iverson (Leicester loan). Seeems to be lined up and knows Warne from Rotherham. A good age for a keeper CB: Scott McKenna (released by Forest). Would be an big improvement on Bradley but several other clubs will be after him. CM: Ollie Norwood (released by Sheff Utd). Got a couple more Championship season in him. Has everything you want from a DM... very good defensively, but also one of the best passers in the league. Maybe Osborn could convince him to join? CM: Freddie Potts (West Ham loan). Wycombe's player of the season who breaks play up very well. Just as good as Adams defensively, better in the air, and slightly more end product. CM: Greg Docherty (released by Hull). Decent and experienced cover. Still a good age. CM: Kenzo Goudmijn (AZ small fee). Probably a risky signing given his low defensive contribution. Would offer us someone slightly different as he drives forward on the ball. Would take over from Norwood as a regular starter once settled. AM: Karamoko Dembele (released by Brest) one of the best AMs in League 1 last season. A lot of competition for him, but you have to throw your name in the hat given his output for Blackpool. CF: Ali Al-Hamadi (Ipswich loan). Not good enough for the PL so Ipswich will be looking to loan him out. A good alround CF who will link play and score. Jackson could help persuade him to choose us. Another we could look to sign permanently next summer. Gabby'sThighs and Premier ram 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ambitious Posted July 2 Share Posted July 2 (edited) Now we know what we're left with with Sibley gone, along with Collins resigned (as well as Jackson, Yates & Osborn). I make it: 2x goalkeepers 1x left back 1x right-sided CB 1x defensive midfield 1x central midfield (potentially Kenzo Goudmijn) 1x central midfield/attacking midfielder 1x left sided winger, attacker. 1/2x striker I think we're probably done with players on the right, with: Nyambe, Wilson, Ward, Rooney, Jackson, Barkhuizen & Mendez-Laing.

GK - could be 1, could be 2. Vickers is a solid 2nd choice, so it depends on if Warne wants to go with Evans/Thompson as 3rd choice or sign another experienced 'player/coach'. LWB - we already have Elder, Forsyth (also LCB cover) and now Osborn (also used at CM). I don't see us signing anyone RCB - Nelson is the clear starter, with Nyambe and Rooney as cover. I don't see us signing one. I do expect a central CB to replace Bradley (rather than Nelson moving into the middle) LW - I think this'll be covered by Mendez-Laing and Blackett-Taylor. I think the signing will need to be primarily right sided (ideally left footed for variety and can play in the middle), with Jackson (1st backup) and Barkhuizen (reserve).

All depends on if we are wanting to play with wing backs primarily or not. If we are, he could see Osborn as that player. If not, we will need a left back I think. Agreed on needing an upgrade on Bradley. We do need 1 or 2 more creative players, some maybe from central midfield, some capable of playing centrally in an advance position - would love Dembele for this.

I think the signing will need to be primarily right sided (ideally left footed for variety and can play in the middle), with Jackson (1st backup) and Barkhuizen (reserve). I should’ve clarified: we need two goalkeepers, absolutely no doubt. Vickers is clearly number two when fit, but he does have injury problems (I believe one of his hands is heavily subsidised by titanium) so we need a first choice and a Loach replacement. Thompson is very highly thought of, of course, but I think he’s 17(!). It doesn’t make sense to me that we would chance upon not having a third choice goalkeeper - one with plenty of experience and just wants another year or two in the game. LB/LWB - Osborn will likely start there, but he’s very likely to miss games. Forsyth can’t play LWB in the Championship anymore, he’s more for cover at left sided centre half or in the middle of a back three. Elder, who knows, he’s spent the season pretty much injured and out of form. I just don’t think he can be relied upon. It’s a very fragile group. I also don’t think if you flip to a back four that Osborn can play left back, or at least would be wasted there. It leaves Elder and Forsyth, again, as back four left back options, both of which are unlikely to play an injury hit season and both are questionable (Forsyth more in that position) on championship quality. RCB - this was more with the central of a back three player in mind, but I just wanted to put emphasis on that a right sided player would be able to cover Nelson, if he was to get injured, in a back four. LW - you’re potentially right, NML can play on the right though (as well as a lot of others) so just seems that a left sided winger would be preferable to me, although no doubt whoever we sign will play on both sides - like NML, Barkhuizen, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be surprised if Warne goes ffor anything other than a back 3 as his primary formation since we hav ethe players for it. Even in a back 4, we still have Elder and Forsyth to play LB, so we would probably go with that to start with and sign someone towards the end of the window or in January if we need an improvement.

There really appears to be a feeling across the forum of writing players off before we start the season. Didn't Bradley come to us off a season of captaining Luton to the premier league, but we are writing him off before we kick off our championship season? I really wish we had a sense of unity in trusting in Warne and getting behind the players that are picked to play for Derby ☹️ FlyBritishMidland and Premier ram 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn't some brand new signing, we've all watched him play. If you think he can do it, then fair play, I don't. TomTom92 and RoyMac5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really wish we had a sense of unity in trusting in Warne and getting behind the players that are picked to play for Derby ☹️ It's not necessarily a case of writing players off, but we have to be realistic. Players don't drop out the Championship to go play in League One unless they have a need to do so we have to be mindful of that. There is a considerable difference in quality, intensity and frankly professionalism required at Championship level. Some players could well surprise us, others who we anticipate to do well could fall short. What we have to do as a club is ensure that we have enough in the building to retain our league position by the end of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
