Where are we then? 11:05 - Aug 22 with 792 viewsitfcjoe

GK - Palmer, Walton, Button
FB - Young, Clarke, Johnson, Davis
CB - O'Shea, Greaves, Woolf, Kipre
CM - Matusiwa, Cajuste, Taylor, Humphreys
RW - Ogbene, McAteer, [Burns]
R10 - Szodics, Chaplin
L10 - Philogene, Clarke
ST - Hirst, Akpom

I'd say - with no 1 in 1 out transfers [i.e. Woolfie replaced by Caceres] it's like this

GK - Sorted
FB - Can we get a further LB in? Or just go with what we have [Young, Johnson, Humphreys]
CB - Sorted
CM - Need someone to back up Matusiwa, plus I'd prefer to upgrade the guy rotating with Jens
AM - Need at least 1 more in there, a left footed dribbler
ST - Need at least 1 more in there to put real pressure on Hirst and free Akpom up

So if we said

Back Up 6
New 8 [Hackney, James, Billing]
New Left Footed Dribbler [Egeli, Ragg-Zaggy]
New striker [Ivanovic, AN Other]

We'd be happy

8 and 9 absolutely the priorities, need to go big on those 2.

Carceres is a bit of a weird signing but I guess Woolf is off which means Humph stays and backs up Azor and Leif.
Strong persistent links to Lewis Cook as well which again seems weird. Hopefully we can persuade Hackney this time around, then like you say it’s 2 more attackers. Which would be an immensely strong squad for the championship and should get us up top two.

In the spirit of reconciliation and happiness at the end of the Banter Era (RIP) and as a result of promotion I have cleared out my ignore list. Look forwards to reading your posts!

Egeli would be a great signing as he can play CF as well as wide, and he doesn’t impact squad limits (albeit he could be considered a risk) he’d then fill the two forward roles you’ve highlighted. If we then get another CM, which I agree we need then I think Taylor might be on his way.

That would take us to a 25 man squad I think

Keepers - would prefer someone more comfortable with the ball over Palmer and Walton

Full back - I think depending on Clarke’s fitness we are sorted. I think with Leif inverting this season Johnson looks pretty credible cover.

Centre Back - without losing Woolfie we are sorted so his departure needs to be contingent on getting a replacement in…be it Caceres who whoever.

Centre Mid - agree need Azor cover and ideally an 8. Maybe McDonnell from Liverpool on load as Azor cover and hopefully Hackney or Billing for the 8. That would leave us with 6 so would probably mean shifting Taylor as without Woolfie we need Humphreys as a club produced player.

Right Wing - sorted. Question about Burns registration if we end up with 26 trying to fit into 25.

10’s sorted

Left wing - sorted

9’s - is Akpom the Hirst competition/rotation? Either way I’m not sure he’s a proper target man. We need another of those.

Lastly Egeli - under 21, big reputation as a prospect. Hopefully it isn’t McAtee or Egeli and we can have both

Unless Walton has been given a genuine nod to suggest he could replace Palmer depending on form, I still think he might go the same way as the other L1 lads and look for regular minutes.

Already out of one cup and currently very much second choice. He could end up having effectively wasted three years of his career (for various reasons).
