I get the impression we won't be getting a midfielder this window, for me it will be a makeshift midfield until January and hopefully the Injury list has cleared. It's a very dodgy strategy, we don't want a repeat of last seasons. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kmcalpin Posted August 30, 2024 Report Share Posted August 30, 2024 I'm happy with Vale returning, as long long as he's played in the right position and not behind the striker(s). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me, the plan will be to only use two proper midfielders when Watt is fit to start with him and Maswanhise playing off a striker. On that basis you could play Miller and Zdravkovski and have Sparrow and Halliday on the bench. I think the addition of Watt's footballing brain is to make up for the lack of one in three of our four midfielders. And also to make up fir the fact we can't find another midfielder with that brain. I suspect Paton and Nicholson were supposed to fill that particular void... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wellfan Posted August 30, 2024 Report Share Posted August 30, 2024 I’m looking forward to January to see how Kettlewell manages to choose between fielding his MFC A, B, or C team each game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
witchfindergeneral Posted August 30, 2024 Report Share Posted August 30, 2024 I said before I was against bringing Vale back, still am. I can't see how or where he fits in to this team, especially once we start getting players back fit and other than bringing maximum effort to the table, I don't see what he's adding either.

Spit_It_Out Posted August 30, 2024 Report Share Posted August 30, 2024 Nothing against Vale worked good with Bair when played as a two but i will be utterly gobsmacked if we dont bring in another Midfielder. Its the only postion we need to get some back up for then we bring in a Forward dont get it at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wellsince75 Posted August 30, 2024 Report Share Posted August 30, 2024 Many of the summer signings make no sense . for a club who bleet on about cash being tight I see zero strategy here . its looks like take the cash for Bair and take a whack a mole approach to signings how many of these signings will get game time , what formation or style of football are we aiming at. All as clear as mud at the moment 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelboy Posted August 30, 2024 Report Share Posted August 30, 2024 It's definitely funny that people were doing a sensible act and seriously explaining it was impossible to sign any more players because we already had 26 first team players a few weeks ago and now we have 30. The quality isn't there but we will have some bench to throw on when we are losing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wellfan Posted August 30, 2024 Report Share Posted August 30, 2024 Kettlewell makes buck with the one hand and throws it away with the other. It’s not even a strategy at this stage; it appears to be more of a scattergun panic. He can never use the we’re skint and subject to one of the lowest budgets in the league excuse again.

Spit_It_Out Posted August 30, 2024 Report Share Posted August 30, 2024 Well think it's safe to say every bean Is probably gone now! I expect to see a hell of a lot sexy attractive attacking football Kevin Keegan style you scored 3 fuck it we shall score 4. I am still holding out for a Midfielder on a 6 month deal.

MelvinBragg Posted August 30, 2024 Report Share Posted August 30, 2024 Our 17th signing of the summer apparently. Trying to work out how many players we had left from last season to work out the size of squad.. By my maths, we had eleven(not including Nicholson as they announced him as a new signing or Wilson as he was way out of last season's picture) including the injured Slattery. Squad of 27-28 by my reckoning... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orinoco Posted August 30, 2024 Report Share Posted August 30, 2024 Who really cares how many we sign as long as we put a winning team on the pitch within budget. Competition for places can only be good surely. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texanwellfan Posted August 30, 2024 Report Share Posted August 30, 2024 Maybe SK found Alexander’s Tombola and figured it would be more fun with more names. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MelvinBragg Posted August 30, 2024 Report Share Posted August 30, 2024 If nothing else, signing Tavares and Vale increases the chances of seeing Lennon Miller in his natural position. Might even switch to a back four and play 433 when the situation dictates... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
