Leazes_End_Mag Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 Seen very little of him so cant Judge (forgive me) too much but I hope we're still targeting another winger, as well as a striker or 2 and a LB. Concerned that we will only get Judge as the midfield signing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 Wiki says he can play on the wing is as well. I wonder where Rafa will be thinking of fitting him in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 Pushes Colback further out, get him. Is that his position then, centre midfield? I'm surprised, that wasn't the area I thought we were focusing on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lush Vlad Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 Desperately need a winger, that can come in and contribute right away. So we look to sign someone who probably won't play again this calendar year? Seems a bit odd. I remember him looking good and scoring a few for Brentford, going off of SSN highlights and I think one Friday night game last season. I hope we'd still be looking to sign another winger, that has both his legs intact. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lush Vlad Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 Alan Judge is a winger, surely? What's all this centre mid talk? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parsley Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 So is he fit then? That's my only concern. On paper, he looks a good signing for the division but we really need someone who can slot straight into the team such is the need for a proper left winger.

Seymour Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 Time to get more technical and intelligent players in from now on imo. Instead of trying to adapt too much to the "Championship style" even more. We have a decent core of players but we need more technical quality in. Talented players will stand out and show how poor this division actually is. A good mix needed. There's a reason these teams are in the Championship. Judge is very much a technical player like. He's a dwarf. Never seen him. I just meant in general. I really hope that the next few players we sign are very good on the ball. Hopefully we can get at least 3 more in. Winger, LB and a striker. Ideally i'd like us to get a good creative CM as well, one that can run the show and dictate the play and tempo as well as being able to make a good final ball. But i'dbe happy with 3 players, but i just can't see us getting all of these unless we get one of them in very soon. Deals can happen quite quick from nowhere to be fair. And we're probably working on a few at the same time. Fingers crossed that we get what we need. I keep seeing this about needing a creative midfielder, are Shelvey and Diame not exactly that?

I don't think we'll be seeing him on the pitch any time soon. I think he plays on both sides, but he's right footed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanj Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 Happy to sign these type of players provided they help us get out of this league. If they then become padded squad players or they get moved on again cool too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I've been wondering that myself. So you're content with Colback playing every now and then? And dont tell me that Colback is a defensive midfielder, as being shit going forward doesnt make you a DM and he is shit defensively anyway. I said that it would be a bonus if we could get another CM, and I don't mean an extremely attacking one, but one that is good both ways and has a good range of passing and can be a bit creative. Controlling the tempo and dictating play. Winger and LB and striker should be higher priority of course. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think he's any sort of footballer, never mind a type of midfielder. The type you describe is ideal and I agree with you entirely. I popped in because I was wondering why folks (on enough previous posts for it to become a theme) are asking for more creative midfielders when we have 2 already. Only so many spaces in squad, never mind a team. Always up for improvements on what we have though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 I think our biggest problem area is still going to be left back. in the championship you want one that can bring the ball out and overlap with the forwards, I just don't see one here who can do that presently. Haidara is hit and miss and usually injured for half the season. Dummett and Mbabu are defenders only. I thought we'd give ourselves more options than this.
