Why are we looking for a 10 with Traore, Tufan & Tetteh already on our books?
Tetteh is more of a striker, but yeah I was surprised when Baz then ST said as much.
Thing is though both Tufan and Traore can play different roles not just 10 so maybe that's something to do with it.
Must say I was a little concerned by his championship record. L1 stats were fantastic though
We have an FFP thread but no we didn't make a profit in 21/22. We had an operating loss and then a write down of the Allam's loan which does nothing for FFP purposes.
Yeah, but if Tetteh plays as 10, it’s 2 up top, Traore or Tufan as wingers seems highly unlikely, especially if that’s a priority, I think we have decent cover with Longman & Vaughn, if we can get players in there we should be ok.
Im still surprised we’re chasing a GK so hard, can’t have much faith in TLT or the kids if that’s the case. I could understand if a decent player, like Darlow becomes available, but to be chasing a 36 year old seems weird to me. If I was Ingram, I’d be pissed off, if I was one of the others, I’d be looking to get out & say that the people in charge were incompetent.
Agree. I said as much when we signed TLT that it was a weird signing, and really emphasises that we went pretty scattergun last summer without a clear plan or direction. Heaton I don't hate as a back up to Ingram, and TLT should be going on loan to L1 which is a step up from where he was last season.
The Tom Heaton that Tan confirmed we had no contact with?
We'll wait on Darlow with Ingram and Timotee in pre season. Will move on second options later in the window. One Darlow's future is decided.
The domino's haven't started falling yet.
Perhaps, but I think just like with Baxter and Darlow before him, I would think Ingram would be given the chance to prove himself as number one. Otherwise Heaton shouldn't be coming in.
If he does it'll be a loan. But I doubt hes a target. Think the link has come from the agent.
He’s just spent the season as Man U’s number 2, he isn’t going to drop down to a mid table championship club to sit on their bench instead. If he arrives before the first game of the season he’ll start on the opening day and it’s his shirt to lose.
He played 2 games in the EFL cup.
No minutes of any premier league, FA cup or European game.
He's a 500k signing with a couple of years as no 2 in the tank at best.
I dont think we’d be actively looking for a capable number 1 if Rosie felt he wanted Ingram to have chance to prove himself
Then if I was Ingram I'd be looking for a new club. This very public pursuit of a number one wouldn't be making him feel particularly good. Rosie has always said it's a team picked on merits and everyone has a chance to win a starting position, but if Ingram is being written off I'd be out the door.
I think all the signs point to Greaves leaving this summer. We seem to be looking at a left sided centre back and Tan is pretty clear that there's serious interest in him, and reading between the lines I get the sense we're pretty happy to sell him for a decent fee now, at a time when McLoughlin has proven he's a more than capable first choice in that position and in fact, it's becoming awkward to fit them both in.
