HaydnNUFC Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 We won't be able to shift everyone we want, nor will we be able to get all the players in the positions that we want in the summer. I think we'll be looking at and need to look at getting a striker, number 6, winger, CB and Targett. Then next summer another CB, another striker, another winger and a goalkeeper.

STM Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 3 signings of the standard of Bruno would transform us. Anyone can say they want 8 new players to walk through the door but when they are no better than what we have, people will soon whinge. Look at the way people go on about Wood. Let's get the right players, who are MUCH better than what we have. If we get 5, we have done amazing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menace Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 A goalkeeper is key. The mistakes dubravka makes a season is the difference between 10th and 8th. They've got a hell of a task ahead of them in the summer like. Exciting stuff. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPERTOON Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 Striker and RW has to be the absolute priorities. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, there was a stat that the other day is that without Dubravka we'd be something like 14 points worse off (can't remember the exact points total), he needs replacing as does most of the sqaud, but there are plenty of other positions that are more key then him.

Tsunami Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 We’ll have our targets already identified and no doubt made some approaches. Centre Forward is an absolute must, a CB and a top quality CM would make a huge difference. ASM needs to improve his end product otherwise he may not survive beyond next season. We won’t need to rely on a moment of magic to steal enough points to survive. We will need someone with consistent quality to provide the ammunition for a proper forward line. Big year coming up for him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 Our current best team is: Dubravka Trippier Schar Burn Targett Shelvey Bruno Joelinton Fraser ASM Wilson Priorities: 1. Striker, because of Wilson's injury record. 2. Winger right or left, we lack so much creativity, ASM and Fraser need someone to displace them. 3. Central defender, I'm still not convinced either Burn or Schar are top 8 players but at least both have shown themselves as reliable. 4. Midfielder, in this position we have the luxury of going for either an AM or a DM because of Brunos versatility. 5. Goalkeeper, only if the right one comes along who can play put from the back.

Oregon_Geordie Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 Absolutely desperate for an athletic physical DM who can still use the ball. Bruno is amazing but he should be the link. Top that with two wide forwards with an ability to score goals. Dubs fucked up but he's not the priority. Honestly think we ran out steam a little today too, we've had a killer season with a small group, both mentally and physically shot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The more free transfers, or players on final year deals, we can get through the door, the more outlay we will have on other areas and more wriggle room we will have to sell players. eg. Lingard in for free. Miggy out for 10m Improves our squad and raises key funds. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
54 Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 Boubacar Kamara on a free with Longstaff getting jogged on would be good business. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 Kamara and Lingard on a free would be class. Just randomly throw them into the team today — Kamara in midfield and Lingard wide right and we’re quickly improved and massively. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kamara would be the perfect number 6 to allow Bruno more of the ball, especially against the big sides. He was starved of possession today and v Liverpool because of it.

Kanj Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 (edited) Fuck it, I’ll say it. Lodi as LB, Kamara as DM, Bruno as the 8, Paqueta as the opposite left sided attacking mid. Joelinton wide left. Wilson or new ST up the middle. Wide right with Lingard or Raphina. Balanced as fuck that team. Trip overlapping on the right. New CB next to Schar.
