Seems like the signings are soon to be announced 11:14 - Jun 28 with 1888 viewswkj

So where does this leave us looking?

CB? Backup goalie? CB who can play LB?

Looks to me like we're almost ready to rock.

I don't think we're anywhere near finished personally.

After Hladky and Penney, I'd still suggest we need:

1x LB
2x CB
1x Left-sided AM
1x Number 10
1x Striker
1x GK (if Holy leaves)

Need another keeper. A big brute of a centre half. A playmaker in midfield and a striker who can hold the ball up. We cant just go with Norwood and Bonne. I dont trust Norwood to stay fit or focused all season and as Ive said before Bonne cant play the one up top role. He isnt that type of striker.

Penney is being touted as LB or left-sided midfielder.
Back-up goalie could be this guy from Salford.
We do need an experienced CB who can be the rock of the defence though.

Don't believe a word I say. I'm only kidding. Or am I?

Hladky
KVY Woolfenden CB LB
Harper Evans
Burns CAM LW
Bonne

I think that Penney will be a squad option, gives us cover all down the left hand side.

Really hope it's Crooks for the no.10 role, big brute of a CB, and then probably a young loan left back & winger.

Then maybe just some more squad options with others leaving. GK, RB, CM, winger & striker depending on Norwood.

Do you not think that would leave us bloated?

If we play 1 up top we've got Norwood, Bonne, Dobra (pretty convinced Jackson is going)

Number 10 would surely be Nolan / Bonne

Left-winger might be a good call, and one position I think we'd be okay with had Edwards stayed.


I think he will keep Wolfenden and Toto engaged, but I would rather see someone come into that spot with some stability with a commanding presence, thus keeping Toto and Wolfenden fighting for a spot.

I think it will be critical for the CB to also fill the LB role - though Kenlock didn't actually do so bad last year I thought - definitely good backup.

Im going out on a limb here and predicting that Cook will bring something amazing out of Nolan for the CAM role.

He has a clean slate, and hopefully can be the busy attacking player we saw glimpses of on a more consistent basis. It's a fresh start innit.

Ffs Evans, Hurst and Lambert!

Aiye, he really isn't a bad player at all - and was much better before he came to us. Clearly, he values respect from managers and is no shrinking violet in confrontation. I reckon with some fitness conditioning and a new sense of worth our man will be a damn fine player this season.

Looking at what SW supporters are saying Penny is very lightweight at left back but maybe left sided midfield as you say.
Agreed we need a big CB, bit of experience, strong,brute type really as I dont trust Toto and Wolfy together.
Still think we need another striker. Bonne isnt the type who can play 1 up on his own and Norwood you just cant trust.

Fwiw, my prediction (first named as starter, second named as back up)

GK - Hladky, ANO

LB - Penney, ANO
CB - Wolfenden, Nsiala
CB - ANO, ANO
RB - KVY, Donacien (Nbada out on loan)

CM - Evans, Harper
CM - ANO, Nolan

WAM - Burns, Dobra
WAM - ANO, ANO (El Miz out on loan)

9 - Bonne, Norwood
10 - ANO, ANO

Bishop, Downes, Kenlock, Holy, Drinan and Jackson leave the club.

22 man squad, up to 8 more to come. This could be around six if some of the squad players cover more than one position.

I think it is 'in the deep end' for El Miz this season. Didn't do an amazing job in L2 this season, but I don't think that level of footie will do much to hone his craft. With someone needed out wide I would rather see him stay and given his chance to show us his potential when needed, but remain trained at the club and playing more regularly with the U23s.

I am not sure PC will have both Dobra and Miz as cover for our wide attacking midfielders. I would expect our attacking players to be more likely to be subbed on/off during games to give us fresh energy as games progress.

I can make a case for Dobra to be someone who comes off the bench. I would though want a more proven attacking midfielder than El Miz at this stage.

When posting drool-lists, people need to bear in mind that we're limited to 22 outfield players aged 20 or above. That really limits the number we can have for "options", "backup" or "cover".

A good centre back is a priority. Toto and/or Wolf need someone to boss them around.

PC has also said he favours a small squad. A maximum of two players for each position gives us a squad of 22 including the keepers. Suspect we will end up with 20-22 players.
