Ghost of Clough Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 53 minutes ago, Eoghan1884 said: For the midfield would take any of -Greg Doherty (27) out of contract - Jordan Thompson (27) out of contact - don’t shoot me but Ben Osborn (29) out of contract could wanna move home for his latter years 😅 Think all 3 players are steady hard working players who’d 100% keep us up if we went up. Another lad I’d have a look at is Joe Williams (27) at Bristol city who’s out of contract in the summer, would be a very good addition and I also think Max Bird is his replacement so could be kind of an indirect swap between clubs. I think we'll need to sign players with more end product. We're losing Bird and Hourihane who have a combined 9 goals and 13 assists so far this season Docherty - 1 goal and 4 assists in 88 Championship games (1 contribution per 1011 mins) Thompson - 3 goals and 3 assists in 122 Championship games (1 per 1125 mins) Williams - 4 goals and 14 assists in 185 Championship games (1 per 749 mins). Also sufers with a lot of muscle injuries Whilst I would expect Osborn to add the goals/assists we should be looking for, I think it's unlikely he would come to us. I would also expect one of our summer signings to be a left footed set piece taker. We've seen this season how Warne likes us to swing corners in, with Hourihane and Mendez-Laing/Ward sharing responsibility. Perhaps Arthur Read who shares the responisbility at Colcehster too, is their leading assister and 2nd top scorer despite playing as a DM in Colchester's favoured 352. rammieib 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was more so saying just one or two of them to play 6/8. You’d need end product around these players 100%. Ghost of Clough 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comrade 86 Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 On 15/02/2024 at 13:41, Premier ram said: Be sad to see Fozzy go It would and of course it's inevitable that at some point, he calls time. Next season though, I'd be pretty certain that if Warne's still here, Fozzy will be too. Warne was laughing in an interview recently at how a succession of Derby managers, including himself, have brought in players to replace Fozz and one by one, 'he's seen them all off. All of them'. It's funny because it's true and I'd be happy to see him getting another year. I think with Fozzy, you kind of know that it'll be him that tells us when it's too much work, not the other way around.

angieram Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Just a reminder that Jake Rooney will be back next season, is still under contract, and will be a year stronger. IlsonDerby, Caerphilly Ram and DerbyAleMan 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IlsonDerby Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 GK: Out: Wildsmith - feels like he knows he isn’t Warne’s #1. Don’t think he’ll stay. In: Would like someone a bit more commanding than Vickers. First choice: New & Vickers reserve: Loach & Evans (u21s) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IlsonDerby Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 Full back: Out: Will Ward stay picking up minutes in the u21s? In: not sure we need to strengthen here as a priority. First team: Nyambe, Elder, Wilson & Forsyth Reserves: ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IlsonDerby Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 Centre back: Out: can we keep cash? Probably only if we go up. In: a solid replacement for Cash if he goes. Rooney back from injury. First team: Cash (or replacement), Nelson, Bradley, Rooney. Reserves: Fozzy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IlsonDerby Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 Deeper midfield: Out: Adams loan ends. In: Adams again? First team: Adams & Fornah Reserves: Robinson? I think if Fornah isn’t seen as being good enough to be first team then he needs moving on and replacing. Personally think he’s shown glimpses of quality but not had much of a chance.

IlsonDerby Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 More advanced midfield: Out: Bird, Hourihane, Smith In: 2 high quality midfielders to replace Bird and Hourihane. Midfielders that can drive forwards with the ball. That aren’t scared to look forwards first. Would give Sibley another contract. First team: Bird replacement, Hourihane replacement, Sibley, new attacking mid (10). Reserves: Robinson, Fornah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IlsonDerby Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 Wider attackers: Out: In: a fourth option to rotate with what we have got. First team: NML, CBT, Tommy B, New reserves: Wilson, Weston Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IlsonDerby Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 Centre forwards: Out: Waghorn, Gayle, Collins. In: Collins, powerful hold up man, powerful fast forward. First team: New, New, Collins, Washington Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IlsonDerby Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 Think we need a minimum of 8 incoming if we lose nobody else. More if we have to replace Cash. Think with us needing 8 in that you could probably say it’s the same 8 positions regardless of division - the quality pool of players will just change slightly dependent on division. Even if we are still league 1 you’d want the majority of the players to be able to step up to the championship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
