RB/ RWB. I think one of those two go, meaning two more in. R10/ 10/L10 - I can see 3 of those going. #9 - I think Akpom goes, so 2 more in. Agree with the rest. |  | |  |

I'm not so sure another LB will come in. I think Johnson will be utilised as a back up for that position (in addition to RB / wing back roles). |  |

Emersonn is a 9 (although still think we need another). We also need another 10. Definitely fine on the wings!! |  |

I think we will be holding on to Ogbene until we see what happens with Philogene. Akpom has to be gone and assume Maeda will play further forward. |  | |  |

Might be right on Emersonn. Re. 10 I think Maeda will play there, he's been off the left for Celtic but I think he'll be more of a 10 for us. Still potentially need another, I'm not sure Mehmeti is Premier League, and Egeli hasn't shown anywhere near enough about him yet. |  | |  |

| Medical completed on 11:47 - Jul 27 with 2124 views | andyblue231 | Is Emersonn not a striker? We can’t possibly start the season with Hirst and Akpom as two of our strikers. That would be ludicrous. [Post edited 27 Jul 11:48]

Emersonn definitely a 9...I wouldn't rule out Maeda getting games at No.9 too, as playing there for Celtic was a key factor in their run-in last season. |  |

Most of that I'm on the same page with. The differences for me are as follows. One left winger/wide left incoming whether JP stays or goes. Neither of our current ones performed with credit in the PL last time, so would need to have improved. Frankly just the thought of Hirst & Akpom as our no 9 choices, absolutely terrifies me, bit like planning to rob a bank armed with a water pistol! I've got Emersonn in that position, so expecting a No 1 striker in ASAP or sooner with Emersonn as back up to start with at least. Oh regarding the 2 full/wing backs, I'm having them as immediate contenders for the shirts, not merely back up. |  | |  |

That comes to a 30 man squad when we can only have 26. Maybe 28 max if we promote an u21 keeper and sign another youngster somewhere. Which four go out? Probably Akpom, Philogene, Mehmet... and maybe Furlong? |  | |  |
