Smalley Ram Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 I hate to be the bearer of bad news but I'm absolutely certain I heard Glick on Radio Derby yesterday comment that Shackle can cover left back - I hate to say it but my money is on them not doing too much about Left Back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RamNut Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 Is it me, or were some fans have selected eye sight in the second half of last season? Roberts was absolutely fine in the final 10 or so games, not a problem at all. We were weaker down the centre, if anything. ...its you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for that - I can't do the replay of media on my works computer so couldn't go back to it. That's a relief then - although he defo said that Shackle could cover.

Ambitious Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 Bertrand would be my pick, seems like Forest are in for him also and since he had a pretty successful time there so wouldn't expect him to pick us over them, but then again have Forest beat us to a player in the past 10 years? could be possible!

blackNwhites Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 On the ball, Gareth Roberts is okay. It's just when you need him to be defensively minded at those do or die situations when he's off the ball, he's useless when in that situation. He can't tackle, can't stand up to a shove, falls over too easily, dives in too early. Sometimes when under pressure near our box, he'll panic and lose the ball. If he's got space, and can run down the wing he's quite useful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackNwhites Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 We'll probably loan someone for left back if we're serious about challenging at the top end of the table. Glick said we're in for 4 more players after the Shackell signing, 2 strikers, 1 holding midfielder and a left back. Which sounds about right in the general opinion on these forums. I expect 2/4 to be loans there. Maybe 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I expect 2/4 to be loans there. Maybe 3. I reckon the left back might be a loan, I think the club has got their targets, one will be Maguire which just seems certain, and the club have mentioned before that they are still looking at Eustace and Waghorn, and I think if Leicester aren't looking to sell Waghorn then we might go in for him on loan if we haven't got a backup lined up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beanie Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 Arsenal's main back-up and cup player at left back, played 20 times last season and capped twice for England. If we sign him, I'll suck your cock. I actually pissed my self laughing at that one and great point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beanie Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 Would love to see Ryan Bertrand come here but his stocks just risen as he was one of the few to come out the U21's euros with any credibility sure he will probably end up on loan at another premiership club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackNwhites Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 Whats happening with Fabio Borini? Long shot, probably staying at Swansea but he's a class act. It's loans like these that we can aim for. Not a bad early fixture list but by no means an easy one, if we can get 65% win rate in those first 10 games we can look toward the class acts on the loan list. The more points, the more attractive we look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
