thewelllfan Posted yesterday at 06:12 PM Report Share Posted yesterday at 06:12 PM 5 hours ago, MelvinBragg said: By my maths, it's 20 without those three but I'm including Dylan Wells and Luca Ross in that. To have a squad of 20 and still feel short in so many positions (full back, midfield, up front) is a concern. Too many defenders that probably won't be first picks (Balmer, Koutroumbis, one of O'Donnell or McGinn), and too many players in other areas that we almost don't count as options because they have contributed so little for various reasons (Nicholson, Stuperavic are the obvious ones). Basically my thoughts are that while 20 isn't a huge squad, it feels unbalanced and it still to me feels that there are too many players who may not contribute a lot over the season... Yeah hadn't included Ross or Wells in that number but if you do it's 20 + the 3 I think will get offered deals that's 23. Not leaving much room to bring in players initially. Can actually see Luca Ross getting used as a Wing Back in this formation and Wells might get minutes in the 2 positions behind the striker in the current formation. As I've said earlier on this I'd be trying to shift Koutrombis, SOD, Nicholson, Stuperavic and obviously we'll sell Miller for a decent fee. We need to add pace and power to our squad in all areas to play at the intensity the manager wants. This summer we probably need to look at adding 7/8 Players for me: 2 CBs, a LWB, 2 CMs , 2 Forwards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fizoxy Posted yesterday at 08:27 PM Report Share Posted yesterday at 08:27 PM I don't think the pre contracts are strong enough to need any clauses, they've been broken before. Ketsbaias agent is really putting in the work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kmcalpin Posted 13 hours ago Report Share Posted 13 hours ago A suggestion, no more, on P & B that Davor is leaving us. If true, that would be no surprise.

Posted on his Instagram which the club re-shared saying something along the lines of "Excited for what the future holds" Obviously could stay but from that sounds like he's offski Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mio Posted 6 hours ago Report Share Posted 6 hours ago I’ve never been a “bring him back” type of supporter but with Allan Campbell being released from Utd I can’t help but think we might get the best out of him again? I just look at the types of players we have in that position already, Davor etc and think it’d be an upgrade. I have to be honest tho and say he’s been pretty poor in that last year with Millwall and Utd. Maybe not for the best but who knows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to be honest tho and say he’s been pretty poor in that last year with Millwall and Utd. Maybe not for the best but who knows. Career has gone down a major dip but I kind of agree. He had a kind of off season with us before he left and you'd still kind of feel he was still better than a lot of the guys we've had there.....or at least not worse but with more potential. Might not be possible due to wages and he might not want to come back here at this stage in his career but I'd be inclined to take the risk if it was possible. Of course you'd need to sit down and work out what kind of shape you want and where he fits in and that's where the manager would come in.

wellsince75 Posted 2 hours ago Report Share Posted 2 hours ago Bring him home , can’t see Halliday lasting the full season . Having Campbell back would give us a bit more steel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spit_It_Out Posted 44 minutes ago Report Share Posted 44 minutes ago Wee Al comes back then we mean business!Be a different player if he came back to us if he or his agent had any sense they would be banging our door take a wage cut and be where he is appreciated and loved. Still young enough to have a good few years with us and get a decent move it he wants to move. Halliday,Slattery and Campbell offt that's a midfield to get ma baws rattling!
