Seems to be all fit senior players minus Remy and Jenas (is he still with us?), plus Lumley from the kids. So thats 19 in total including SWP and Henry (possible makeweight for Fer?). Assuming (big assumption) Remy stays and Jenas is not in the 25, thats a likely 5 more players to come in, up to 8 if all of Remy, SWP (I know, let me dream) and Henry go. Skates on lads. Alternative...play the kids. Nah, not going to happen.
Jenas is out of contract and just recovering with us I think. By the sounds of things we can expect 3 or 4 new players. In my opinion we need 5 or 6 at least.
As it's only 2 weeks to the Hull game I reckon Saturday may give us the first clue as to the starting lineup that Harold is contemplating............
Squad announced.... Remy not in squad - cue lots of excited Tooners on Twitter. 5 mins later... Remy not due to report back until the weekend according to IJTaylor. #bubbleburst
Hull is going to be a real tough one, they're well ahead of us on fitness, signings and quality. They're playing in the Europa League tonight...
Creativity, Creativity, Creativity, 8 loans gone and 2 Signed in July, if we go and lose the first game ITJ@ will need to create a bloody good excuse.
I know some English media outlets have reported that we have offered Henry plus cash for Fer. They might have it mixed up with a bid for Alexander Tettey. Norwegian media reporting that an (unnamed) Premier League club have had a player plus cash deal rejected for Tettey by Norwich. Not saying it's us for sure, but it might be that we're after both and have offered Henry plus cash for Tettey and money alone for Fer. Just me putting two and two together and getting five most likely, who knows?
jenas injured until after xmas. remember he did his cruciate just before the playoffs? he's been given medical assistance by the club.
NO Petrasso or any other kids apart from keeper?!!! 20 players with only three attacking players and only one who can score more than 3 goals a season............................... FFS Harry..................
Agree.....the squad is ridiculously under-strength and lacking depth....... 4-5 absolutely necessary ( all in midfield and attack ) ( Hi Judo by the way, long time no chat since the days on the old board )
