Know it's been slow, but we need to have faith in them. Know we are short, but players brought in or looking to, look to all be improvements on what we had. Dobson - Evans Scowen - Pritchard (know he's an attacking midfielder, but just shows we were lacking in that area) Sanderson - Doyle (time will tell, big ask) McFadzean - Gallacher Mclaughlin - Key (time will tell, but the price tag indicates his potential worth/ability) Cutting it fine for 1st league game, but it's a long old season, and still plenty of time left in window.
A well thought out argument, with merit in it. Seldom found on a football forum. But what we need is all you have said plus a prolific goalscorer, who profits/links up with Mcgeady... then we will be contenders!
Nixon certainly seems to think Gabriel is our first choice But the might be because he has contacts at Forest / Blackpool rather than Exeter
I've not seen any links to O'Donnell anywhere so its random that that Sunderland fan asked him that. Anybody heard anything about O'Donnell to us?
Oh - here it is. Could be a good signing himself. Just played in the Euros as a wing back - so will get forwards in the way I think LJ wants us to play. https://footballleagueworld.co.uk/e...in-sub-1m-move/amp/?__twitter_impression=true
That's an odd link. Could just be adding our name for sake of it. Reason I say that is he's not even similar to the other 2. Gabriel and key have youth pace and athletisism. If we end up with o'donnell I'd be concerned as itd signal a change in the much publisized recruitment model.
The young and high re-sale player is the ideal signing, but not the only one. It's about value. If he fits the bill at a low cost to benefit ratio then no harm done. I don't know hardly ANYTHING about him so I'm by no means saying he'd be good or brilliant. I'm just saying on paper he seems decent and I'm certainly not ruling out any signings based on an international tournament whilst we are in this division.
I get what you are saying but his touch and positioning were shockingly bad. He was the scapegoat for the Jocks on the general chat board. I'll not be overly excited if this guy is who we bring in.
He's definitely not an "exciting" signing in the way I think Key or Gabriel to a lesser extent would be. But like I say I know nothing about him and didnt really notice him at the euros.
