Optimistic Nut Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 Is Watts highly rated? I can’t remember anyone mentioning him until we were on our knees for numbers defensively and he made an appearance almost by default. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toontownman Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 Fuck I love this shit. Overhauling this squad is not just short term reality but a countdown. Happy days. Walk of atonement: Bruce and bobbins staff Gayle Shelvey Wishing you well in your future endeavors...as soon as we can replace ye: Dummett Clark Mark Gillespie Krafth Ritchie Hendrick Darlow Manquillo See if they can adapt and excel with better coaching and players around them: Joelinton Lewis Fraser Longstaff Shortstaff Murphy Hayden Woodman Not to blast into space... until such time as we grow weary of them: Lascelles - could be in the above category or the below. Schar - bit like Jamaal think he will be a different player but could also be phased out. Fernandez - he will be phased out quicker than the rest, but deserves to stay as long as he is useful. Cornerstones to keep: (can't wait to see these guys with better players around them) Dubravka Almiron Willock Wilson Saint-Maximin January needs: (furthr summer additions) 2 (1) Central or Defensive mid 1 (1) striker 1 (1) CB Upgrade fullback on either side. Can't see more the 4 coming in at January but who knows. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't see more the 4 coming in at January but who knows. Think you are being pretty generous there. Beyond Dubravka, Wilson, ASM and Willock maybe, there isn't anyone who I'd be that bothered about. Schar and Fernandez should be good for a while yet, but even Almiron will need to show some shooting boots if he wants to survive past the next year or so.

Toon No9 Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 (edited) Hoping some of the young players could have a role to play in the future too. With good players around them and a manager who can actually manage them to become better players. Thinking of Kell Watts, Elliott Anderson, Joe White for example.

Beth Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 (edited) Almiron is nowhere near good enough for where we want to be in a couple of years time. Edited October 9, 2021 by Beth Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It won't be a couple of years imho. So this lad is more than good enough to be involved in the first steps we will be taking to rebuild and regenerate. This is going to be a long haul and a long period of reconstruction. This club has been underfunded and under developed for the best part of almost a decade and a half. That takes some time to repair, across all the aspects we need to be rebuilt on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deuce Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 In light of the Emery news, I wonder who in the squad is best positioned to benefit. Seems Emery likes a 4-2-3-1 with two defensive-minded CMs, fullbacks who can push up the pitch, and a keeper who can play it out of the back. Hayden-Willock would be our immediate best CM pairing, imo, with Almiron central behind Wilson. ASM and Joe out wide. Does Lewis get another chance at LB? Hopefully the likes of Shelvey and Ritchie are put out to pasture. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd think Lewis will soon come back in to the side too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaqen Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 Reckon Willock would play behind Wilson rather than as a defensive midfielder. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest reefatoon Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 I can't wait to see what he is going to do. My interest has come flooding back now we are not just picking 11 random players and saying "let's play". Fucking hell it's been a tough old watch.
