I cannot see this and the management will be aware of the enormity of the task ahead of Still. I think Spors will be pragmatic. If we are in a play off position in January, I agree that SR will go for it and make the necessary recruitments. Otherwise, I can see Spors just adding a forward and a winger. I also expect him to demand more from the academy. However , I feel that there is a reticence with recruitment this summer and I believe the liked of Spor are realistic about what can be achieved. I am not seeing anything to suggest we are going to make a concerted effort for promotion. I am convinced that they feel stability is the priority until the next transfer window. Just feel SR are very much keeping their powder dry and that Spors is being sensible and realistic. The signings to date , excluding the full back from Brentford, do not appear to be upgrades for a promotion push. I feel the squad will be assembled as more of a team but expecting marquee signings will have to wait until January.
I partly agree with this statement. A few additions and a decent forward will give us stability. I think Still needs to learn his craft but talk of Top Six is a distraction from what the real job is which is developing a winning mentality and not dropping points at home. I feel that this is a sufficient challenge for a rookie manager. This is a longer term project. Having watched Stoke outplay us and the amount of effort required to put Wrexham to the sword, I think we need to make a stock take of our opposition and see how far behind we are. Stoke, Borough, Coventry, Birmingham and Leicester will finish well above us.
Been saying for few weeks now. Keep Matty, 2 wingers & a creative AM. If they’re proven at this level then it’s an even bigger bonus. Rudoni, Fellows & Azaz would be very good for the level we’re currently at I feel, but should they get us up I’d still be wanting more physicality on the wings and at AM in the Prem
