    Aye I’d like to see him deeper, suits him more. Crying out for a goal threat through the middle. Bit greedy to ask for two wingers also

    Wouldn't say greedy, we'll be losing poveda and watson (already) 2 wingers is a minimum expectation for me

    Forgot poveda was even here. Sorry, a quality right winger ready to go, gutted we missed out on Edwards and a left sided to push mundle

    Nectar, Rigg, new signing and a loan/Browne for 4 players to play the deeper midfield positions.

    New first choice 10, Rigg can cover here as can aleksic and browne.

    Pointless, isn’t he? Hideous signing

    More and more I hear about him the worse it gets, I felt the club had prioritised bringing in players with ability but also the right characters - Ekwah and Isidor great for morale, Mepham brought experience etc.

    Poveda however, a total rotten egg.

    Just a quick look at what I would look to do with the current squad this summer if we are still in the Championship.

    Loanees;
    Danns
    ELF
    Samed
    Mepham
    Would only look to sign Mepham. Would love ELF but the fee/wages would be too much.

    Gone already;
    Watson

    Sell/Release;
    Roberts
    Poveda
    Anderson

    Consider loaning;
    Abdullahi
    Aleksic
    Jones
    Hjelde
    Seelt

    Consider selling/releasing
    Browne
    Huggins
    Alese
    Ballard
    Patterson

    I'd then be open to accepting big offers for some of our bigger assets to allow us to reinvest;
    Jobe £25m+
    Rigg £20m+
    Neil £12m+
    Hume £10m+

    Going to be very hard to avoid a large turnover this summer. But the money we could bring in could be transformative and allow us to bridge the gap to the parachute payment clubs.

    Think depending on what happens,

    we will need about 10 players in,

    And imo we need to move Luke on, if we want to progress we need to move those on who have been here a while,

    thankful for what he’s done but think it’s time to say goodbye

    Not sure about that tbh, low wages and can cover 4 positions if we need + gives a ****

    If someone bids for Ballard too I’d be tempted. Bring in two beasts of centre half’s and have LON as backups

    Yeh O’Nien won’t generate a large transfer fee and is brilliant to have in the squad. Little point moving him on. Wouldn’t be against us signing a speedy ball playing center back to replace him in the starting 11 but I’m not 100% sure they exist in the championship :D

    Should probably make the most of the loan market this summer too, Salis and Danns haven't exactly been the best uses.

    Mepham, Isidor and potentially Le Fee were though. But agree with your point

    Yes yes and yes. Let Rigg play in his actual position and rebalance the midfield

    I understand that but imo we need to move him on, can’t keep players for sentimental reasons.

    when we need a leader he goes missing or does something stupid or a silly stunt.

    think he has gone as far as he can with us

    Should always look to sign 2/3 loan players who are unattainable on permanents.

    I don’t agree we’ve got two good centre forwards for this level. Would take Danns back on loan

    Oh yeah we made some better moves - Isidor was always with the vision to be a permanent and the aim was for Mepham to be (we just need to wait and see what they say in the summer).

    One could argue ... Le Fee hasn't been a massively successful loan, but at least that one made sense.
