We're on the back of an incredible run of form and the only player we've really lost is Hirst (TJJ was injured for that period). I think we got spoilt a little in January where we had 4 quality players come in. Just have a bit of patience and we'll see what happens. |  | | |  |

Not a demolition job this time around on 14:04 - Jul 11 by BigCommon | Do we really need another CB? I know it's something all the kids and podcasters are mentioning. But we had the best defence in the division last season, setting a club clean sheet record in the process. Woolfy, Burgess and Walton have a good understanding, with Morsy dropping in the hole in front, too, to help when playing out from the back.. We strengthened the defence with Leif and Clarke last season, to the tune of a few quid.. On top of that, in one of his interviews Ole Gunner was quoted as saying that KM was "the" best defensive coach he's ever worked with.. Personally don't think a CB is an absolute priority. Others may disagree... We are always going to be vulnerable to a quick counter, the way we push up on the flanks and often play on the front foot. And I know Burgess is deemed as being "vulnerable" to being ran at by a tricky forward. But in all honesty, cant think of a Championship CB who isnt.. |
I think so now Keogh has gone. We've got plenty who could fill in, but I think we're looking for someone to come in and directly compete with Burgess. |  |

Out of curiosity, what are you basing that on? I don't think it's essential. For all the reasons I outlined before .Plus, Fridge, Ball, JD, Leigh? as back ups... I liked Keoghs all round squad contribution. But did he really do enough on the pitch, to say, we really must replace him, player wise? It's fine saying " yes we do". Be nice to hear your reasons. |  | |  |

Couple of strikers, a new wing-back who would challenge Burns and new CB. |  | |  |
