Last seasons team will always have a special place in our hearts but we need to massively improve the team and squad for next season. I'm not writing any player off for next season but our current squad was also 7th in form over the last 25 games or so, so it's clear we need to strengthen across the team

A lot of last seasons team will play loads, and I expect 6 or 7 to start to 1st game.

The club will have a good idea who can and can't step up, they won't get them all right but they've been pretty much spot on so far with their assessments so far when they think a player can't help us step (Embleton Wright Gooch DB pritchard are the obvious ones).

This summer is exciting as we are signing players that fit our model but are, at least on paper, massive upgrades on previous players signed

I want a birtish core to our team as I think that's really important for us as a club

There is only ever 1 certain way to know if they can step up. Only one.

I dont think all of the Wembley lads should step up. Not in a million years. But if we are down to 2 or 3 we risk losing what was so very different about our promotion.

They aren’t going to all leave though they will be bench options or even competing and performing well in pre season and might stake a claim to start

I hope you're just joking and not throwing a strop about other people's footballing opinions.

I'll assume you are just kidding.

who’s said none of them are good enough for the premier league?

you have a habit of taking what one person has said, exaggerating it, and then making out that everyone shares that view.

Hume, Cirkin, Ballard, Neil, Rigg, ELF, Mundle, Mayenda and Isidor are all definitely good enough for the premier league. And I wouldn’t mind O’Nien and Alese getting minutes either. Roberts at a push.

Jesus wept.

a lot of that team are good championship players. Mind we finished 4th we didn’t run away with the league we were competitive.

They are not good enough for the premier league as a starting 11. Individual players are

that shouldn’t be hard to grasp

Thanks lads for accepting my alternative view

Much appreciated

We spoke about this before the window opened but it's really shown how the midfield structure has been addressed to (in principle) become more balanced and suit Le bris. He inherited 3 very good players in Neil, Jobe and Rigg but I'm not sure the combination of 3 suited his style perfectly.

Last season means **** all if we go down shambolicaly..

We are in the big league, next step is survive year one then we can think about proper growth.

Sentiment is a lovely thing until it stunts you.

Hume
Big Dan
Dan
Wilson
Mayenda
Roberts
Cirks
Rigg
Patto

That’s a good list of players who can step up, and there’s likely more.

If there wasnt 1000 pages I’d find my comment

but I said selling Bellingham will be a blessing in disguise for us as we had 3 good individuals. Now we have a perfect balance (even better if we sign one more midfielder)

Indeed, I was there for that I think and now it's time to find out if it was true.

We had this conversation the other day

a couple of said that our midfield has a bunch of great midfielders, jobe, rigg, neil etc

but they’re not necessarily the most balanced midfield

if we sell one or two of those I’d like the money to be spent on a balance midfield, a strong 6 with a good passing range, a box to box, a proper creator etc

we would have serious funds to do that at this level
