6th best (7th if it's goals per game)
The target is top 2 though, isn't it? I don't think the question is "are the defence the worst part of the team", it's "would any of these be playing centre back for the best team in the league" or "is this the best we could get for our budget?" |
Fair comment, but again
Chambers, Nsiala, Wilson, Ward/Kenlock
or
McGuinnesss and Woolfenden
None of those combinations have been great and yet we've been above average.
I hope that KVY and a different LB changes that back four.
If one or two of Wilson, Chambers, Woolfenden or Nsiala leaves, that's fine, but I think the remaining three can do a job for top two.
Just think back to those early season calamaties playing out from the back!
The LB position needs to be filled and I would not be surprised to see a new central defender arrive, but not at the expense of three leaving, just the one. |  | | |

If KVY is fit, Chambers plays at centre half. He won't play every game but we would be silly to let him(or Wilson for that matter) leave, especially if we are in League one. |
If we had any forward planning we would give Chambers another season at CB to school Woolfenden and Ndaba with a view to phase him out ( something we should have done this season). Wilson is a steady if limited player so we should consider keeping him. Never been too convinced about Nsiala's worth but he is playing a bit steadier at he moment so hard to say which way to go with him. Ndaba asset is that he is left footed. Our strategy should be to have two youngsters and two experienced CB's in the squad ( not coaching other teams players ). |  | | |

Ndaba is doing really well at Ayr by all accounts, was in the league team of the week a weekend or two ago. |  | | |

Like I say it's keeping all 3 that's unambitious for me. Even one going means you're at least aiming to improve that area, rather than just saying "ok, fine, we're happy with Top 6 or thereabouts". |  |

Indeed, some of these would now count as senior players as they will be over 21. However, I think that rule may have been abolished along with the ill thought out salary cap, although you never really know with the Football League. |
Think it was part of the salary cap, however, not impossible a squad size could be included in whatever new FFP thing they come up with. Squad will be reduced drastically whatever though, PC has made it clear he doesn't want the ridiculous numbers we've currently got.
I suppose it is possible that players could be kept and not included in the squad if a future is seen for them. Someone like Morris could be sent out on loan if Town think he could still have a future here. |  | | |

Phil, Do you think Town ever transfer listed anyone when we got relegated? It seems to me we continue to just sit on our assets and eventually give them away.
Who would be responsible for that do you think? It seems like a Bowman or LON type thing to handle based on the manager's feedback. Not that we would see that money turn into a transfer budget, but surely the reduction of wages would allow us more flexibility for higher quality loans, or even the odd transfer if Evans feels it's worth a punt. |  |

Not sure I'd want to lose any of those - our best CB, useful playmaker who has finally found his feet, decent utility CB and reasonably fast striker who scored 11 goals last season. Who would you replace tham with? |
Wilson is ok, limited but ok, should be looking for a longer term upgrade.
Judge is definitely not a ‘playmaker’.
Jackson simply doesn’t fit into a lone striker role, don’t need players here for the sake of it.
Bishop doesn’t do enough. |  |

I hope we keen Ben Morris, I really like the look of him. Appreciate he's had injury problems but I think we could regret not giving him another crack. |
Can't believe how unlucky he has been. Sickening. |  |

Would like Ben Morris to stay. Seen him play many times and has alot of potential. He should be afforded the time to heal up and get fit. |  |

Will be 22, can’t see him being the type to lead a line on his own in men’s football. Bad injury record.
Can’t see the purpose of holding him, of course duty of care to allow him to regain fitness, but wouldn’t offer him a deal. | |

Well, we sold Harrison and Bart so that brought in some cash. Other than that the plan was to try and keep hold of most of the squad and add. | | | |

Keeping Jackson when he didn't fit into Lambert's system was daft. We had offers in excess of £1m. Now, he only has 1 year left if we trigger an extension, he's had an abysmal season & will be worth very little. He doesn't fit into Cook's system either.
Same with Donacien. Lambert clearly didn't rate him & we could have got a small fee by selling him in January. Again, he will be out of contract in the summer unless we trigger his extension if Cook likes him more than Lambert. |  |
