Recruiting as if we're promoted 20:02 - Apr 26 with 9025 viewsPaoloMarinero

I've seen it mentioned on here that we could be recruiting as if we were in the championship. If true, who could that mean in terms of targets? What promising Prem youngsters or settled Championship players would be in the radar? Is it a done deal that we'll get some Man Utd youngsters?

Who has said this? Not entirely sure how any club can manage that but time will tell.

I do hope we don't waste a lot of time going after unrealistic targets that we fail to get.

Definitely read it a couple of times on here, and obviously it's all conjecture, but it's quite exciting to think of the quality we could be aiming for. I love all the transfer rumours, I can't lie.

Ashton himself hinted at that, saying it wouldn’t matter what league we’ll be in, and that we’ll be recruiting (relatively) top players no matter what.

KM and Ashton have both said they didn't really have 2 lists it was just one.


That maybe the case but how many of those targets would fancy league 1 rather than champ.. that's the important bit of course.

Despite the disagreement about it. I still fully expect to see a couple of utd loanees coming in.

Bennetts back on loan?

Can still remember herbz thinking it should have been illegal that we had Edwards in league 1.

Just means we are looking for players with set profiles to suit KMs plans/tactic... Those team tactics remain the same, regardless if we were promoted or not. Ergo, the type of player attributes KM is looking for will remain the same...

When all is said and done we are essentially recruiting employees (specialist though they may be) and the bottom line for most employees is wages and progression... I suggest we will be offering very tempting levels of both

Just puff. Any young player who can improve or expensive mercenaries who have played one minute of football at a higher level fit that PR guff. It’s just drivel to make the gullible feel better about lashing out on a season ticket.

Personally I’d feel a bit more positive if anyone at the franchise has come to terms with the fact Town are a mid-table team in the third division - and something more than hot air and delusion is needed to arrest the decline. That might actually mean a core of good third division players is required

From memory they both mentioned that the club would try to recruit young players who have the potential to grow with the club and play at a higher level with the PL being the main ambition. Not sure we’ll be targeting PL or even higher Championship ready youngsters but ones with the potential to do that.

They also stressed the need for experience in a team - so possibly players in their late twenties who may well have been overlooked or never quite made it.

I know that I’m just giving you the attention that you crave - personally I’m not sure why you crave attention online. Maybe you’re a pathetic middle-age man whose ambitions have long gone and you’ve woken up next to a wife you don’t like or maybe you’re all alone. Or maybe you’re someone with no friends or goals on life.

KM has also thrown into the mix that we lack abit of experience in the side. Whilst I quite like the club not having leaks, it also made the summer frustrating with lack of TWTD Understands etc lol

Well according to some last summer we brought in several players who are too good for league 1 and that didn’t exactly go to plan.
Whoever comes in this summer as long as they can produce good performances on a consistent basis I couldn’t care less where they come from.

Morsy, Walton, Burns, Edmundson, Chaplin and Celina are all too good for league 1. Things didn't go to plan but the recruitment wasn't far off.

Just puff. Any team who can kick a ball theoretically fit that survival in the Premier League guff. It’s just drivel to make the perpetually relegated feel better about lashing out on a season ticket and sitting there under a blanket making no noise.

Personally I’d feel a bit more concerned if anyone at the library would come to terms with the fact Narwich are a nothing team and always have been - and something more than cordon bleu pies and a drunk cook is needed to a proper club make. That might actually mean a trophy arrives one day.

The aim was to sign Championship standard players. That came off in a number of cases, Walton, Chaplin, Celina, Aluko, Edmundson among them, but I'm not sure they found it as easy as they hoped to get players from the Championship to drop down.

Yet only one of those players were named in the Sky Bet League One Team Of The Season.
If we are recruiting players who are supposedly above league 1 standard then we need them to start proving this on the pitch.

Doesn't really work like that. You need the whole team functioning, individual players cannot carry a team. They aren't going to put 4 Ipswich players in team of season when were 11th.
