SGE has said he needs about 4 more players which would put the No. of players at 36, he has also said he needs to get rid of quite a few. Out of the current squad of 32 (10.07.11) who would you get rid of if you were SGE & what would your 1st team be v Coventry on the 6th Aug ? ... ________________________________________________________________________ OUT; GK Smith (we have 4) CB Parkes (unless he´s the next best thing) CB Bolger (as above) RB Neilson (to be replaced with better) LB Kennedy (as above) DM moreno (as above) CM Moussa CM Moore ST Schlupp ST Crncic ST Kermorgant (replaced by Maynard I hope) ...which would reduce the squad to 21 with the 4 new additions 25, a good squad & No. __________________________________________________________________________ MY TEAM; 4-4-2 GK Schmiechel RB Peltier LB Berner CB Mills CB Bamba LM Dyer RW Gallagher CM King CM Wellens ST Nugent ST Vassel SUBS GK Weale CB Tunchev CB St Ledger DM Abi RW N´Gussen CM Danns FOR Howard FOR Waghorn Does that make much sence ???
If that´s the case with Logan then scrap SMITH out. TBH I don´t know much about the younger players on the list & we will need abit of strength in depth but with the wage bill set to rise further some (fringe) players maybe sold or loaned out. It´s all in SGE hands, he´s already got rid of about 10 players, most on June 30th but there will be more that´s for sure. I think we have about 5 left that, in my opinion, will hardly ever play for LCFC again & we could do with out with our prem lge ambitions. ALL JUST MY OPINION GOOD LUCK IN SCHWEEEEDEN CITY
I'd also be interested to see Moreno and Kermo play under Sven to see what they can offer because I think they have both shown glimpses of quality at times. Moreno was only really used as a centre back last season wasn't he? AKCJ's list will defo stay and I don't know how Danns can't be included in our first 11, he's quality!!
Who would you drop (from my team) Wellens or King. Danns is quality & that´s the thing about LCFC we are building a v.v.g squad with competition for places. Give me your teams
-------------Schmeichel------------- Peltier----Mills----Bamba-----Maseila --------------Wellens(c)-------------- Gallagher---Danns----Dyer Nugent Weale King Vassell St Ledger Waghorn Tunchev Abi Schlupp
I'm sure Sven has said he wants a squad of around 20 outfield players and 3 keepers. The 3 keepers are now sorted but we have 29 outfield players. I think Waghorn will go if another striker come in but not before that, I think Dyer rather than Moussa will go as Franck recently signed a contract 'til 2015. Berner will leave if Ball gets a contract. Sven's said Schlupp is in his plans for next season. I can't see Tunch staying due to all the CB we're signing and with Sven saying Bamba won't go I don't think he'll accept being 4th choice. I think the players to go will be: Neilson Tunchev Kennedy Moreno N'Guessan Moore Crncic Kermorgant Dyer (only if he wants to leave) Berner (if Ball signs) Waghorn (if another striker signs) So we could have a squad looking like: Schmeichel Weale Smith Peltier Mills St Ledger Bamba Parkes Masilela/NEW LB Ball/Berner Danns Wellens King Oakley Abe Moussa Gallagher Dyer Waghorn/NEW CF Nugent Vassell Schlupp Howard My Team: Schmeichel Peltier St Ledger Mills Masilela King Danns Wellens Nugent NEW CF Gallagher Subs: Weale Bamba Ball Abe Dyer/Oakley/Moussa Vassell Howard/Schlupp
THEFOXES1884 Concerning your outs, I would get rid of Howard and N'Guessan instead of Moussa and Schlupp. Smith should probably stay as 3rd keeper (or go out on loan whilost we don't need him). My team for Chavs would be: Schmeichel Peltier Bamba/Vitor (deal apparently close) Mills Masilela (deal apparently close) Danns Wellens King Nugent (new striker) Gallagher Subs: Weale Vitor/Bamba St Ledger Abe Oakley Waghorn Vassell Lord_Dyer will kill me but I wouldn't have Lloyd anywhere near our first 11. If we want a burst of pace we should go out and buy a winger. Dyer isn't good enough.
I really hope Waghorn steps his game up a notch this season. He could turn out to be our super sub and we'll need him.
Schlupp really needs to be playing & I´m not sure he´ll get to much time on the pitch With the new signings & all that. Maybe SGE could loan him out to a div 1 club til Jan & keep an eye on his progress ?
Yeh I think Sven will loan him out til Jan. I think I heard it will be to a championship club though - hopefully one which will be at the wrong end of the table!
THEFOXES1884 I'd drop King for Danns because although King scores goals he does very little else and is often anonymous whereas Danns can score goals and doesn't disappear. Greatness_Since_1884 I don't see why Tunchev will be 4th choice because if he's fit and back to how he was before he got injured then he's our best defender and would be the first name on the team sheet for me, none of our centre backs are guaranteed a place in my opinion.
Tunch should get a chance because he´s worked really hard to get fit & as far as I know he wants to stay & pay the club back for their patience.
