Or about 54 weeks until the start of our Premiership Campaigne I think were done in the Transfer Market now and probably wont get Puncheon in nor anyone else, maybe we will see Townsend back for a loan, but other than that i think we have come up a little short with players. how strong do you guys think the current sqaud is? and will we survive a bout of injuries should it happen? ta
I reckon we'll be OK, but just shy of the play-offs again - but as long as we end up above Weeds and Shammers.....
I think we are a little light, especially up top. We only have 3 available strikers at the moment, and one of them is injury prone, whilst the other two are young and unproven at this level. But the only way to be proven at this level is to be given the chance to get games under your belt. This is a massive chance for Marquis and McQuoid and they need to take it with both hands, as if things dont kick off well for us, the crowd will be on their backs. everywhere else, bar the left wing, I think we are sorted. at this moment in time, I think we will finish between middle and relegation on the simple fact that we are short of goals.
KJ always thinks defence first - he talks about 'building from the back'. We are in a similar position to last season but I'd like to see another striker and Townsend would be good - a proven team player who doesn't need time to fit in. Is KJ waiting for the Prem shake-out? Good news KJ never complains about getting people to the Den - most other previous managers did.
Heard Townsend played a blinder against Barnet on Saturday on front of a dozen scouts - doubt we'll see him in a Wall shirt again. Puncheon has stated that he wants to play in the Premiership - failing that he'd like to come back to us. Can see someone like Blackpool with their parachute payments being able to pay him a lot more than we can!!
i think were ok up top! i think we need work at the back! ok ok, i know defencively we were in the top 3 last year but towards the end we were ragged and teams worked us out! we lack pace more than anything in the back 4 and struggle against pacey forwards!, as ive said if we can add puncheon and townsend we will have such a strong midfield that strikers can concerntrate on goals! Moro spent alot of time out wide last season holding the ball up! i dont want that with M&M and Bouazza, Puncheon, Henry can all play unfront or wing so we have cover!
I think the pace thing at the back is not too much of a problem. It can be dealt with by our defenders, as they have bags of experience. Cant wait for the start of the season mind, Saturday's have been so difficult for the past 2 and a half months. I have actually had to talk to the missus and done some house work!
ha ha its shocking! the fact there was no football forced me to end my relationship! just in case i was cornered into proposing or something! men do silly things when football is not on!
