IlsonDerby Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 Leave the ‘think we’ll get Ebou’ or ‘reckon Barkhuizen will extend’ suggestions for the transfers and retained list thread. This is just if the season started today, what would your team be? Obviously it’ll change as we announce new contracts and signings but interesting to see just how far ‘off it’ we are currently and whether the transfers address what we think are our weak links. I’ll start - sticking with Paul Hoddle Warnes 3 at the back. Vickers Nyambe Nelson Cash Ward Fornah Fapetu Elder NML Washington CBT Think it’s clear that we need to be bulk buying central midfielders and forwards 😂 jimtastic56 and IslandExile 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would also put DBrown in the 11 instead of Washington. Bradley and Wilson are the only other 1st team players contracted. Good arguments could be made to include them in the 11.

Rample Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 What is the contract situation of our better youths - Bardell, Cox, Moloney, Radcliffe, Richards etc. We're exactly as you'd think - very lopsided.Great at right wing back, but pretty sparse throughout the spine. Some sort of line up using contracted players. :- Vickers Nyambe Nelson Cashin Rooney Ward, Fornah, Radcliffe, Wilson Mendez-Laing Collins Bench Evans, Bradley, Elder, Robinson, Fapetu, Weston, Blackett-Taylor, Brown, Washington. Bardell just nudged off the bench for balance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lads put a few good performances together against some cloggers in non league. Washington has spent half his career up in the champs. He might not be inspiring but I’d bet money he’d be more effective right now than Brown. Brown obviously has a higher ceiling though.

DCFC1388 Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 Vickers - Nyambe Nelson Cashin - Wilson Fornah Rooney Elder - NML Washington CBT Leaving Ward & Bradley as first team backups We need to focus on actual firat team quality, I feel like we have decent squad players now but er need to improve the starting 11 significantly, especially centre mid & striker trappatoni 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IlsonDerby Posted August 31 Author Share Posted August 31 (edited) Bringing this topic back to the top of the pile now we know what we’ve got to play with until January.

With the likes of Wilson, Nyambe, Bradley, Adams, Chirewa, Thompson, NML, Collins/Brown, CBT/Barkhuizen rotating in where necessary. Looks a decent squad now (except missing the elusive "big number 9") I do think Yates will score goals if we create the opportunities. The squad is more than good enough to survive, over to you Warne & Co 👍 Edited August 31 by Carnero Castor 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anag Ram Posted August 31 Share Posted August 31 Interesting that Chirewa, a highly-rated Wolves player, doesn’t make it into many starting elevens based on one performance. He may well be the spark we need! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having the extra body and presence in the middle of the park. Don't think Kenzo would be as effective in a two man midfield pivot either. He's best given freedom to find and pick the holes. It's good to have options though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With 9 players on the bench in the Championship, we should also be able to switch from one formation to another within the same match if required. I really like the idea of being able to change it up and not being locked into one particular system be it 4 4 2 / 3 5 2 whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
