I liked him when he played, but I don't think he got any minutes last season. It was more a number thing most top flight clubs tend to have a pool of 6/7 Central Midfield players. We currently have 3 senior central midfielders (Watt, Fadinger, Preistman) with a few youth players on the fringes (Whyte, MaCallister) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With those two now gone we have little back up to cover for injuries and suspensions. I have no idea what impact Whyte and MacAllister will have. Thats before any unwanted departures.

Stuwell2 Posted Saturday at 10:24 PM Report Share Posted Saturday at 10:24 PM Last season MacAllister never looked out of place any time he came on so I think he will play a bigger role this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope a few of the youth players break through. We've not really had any since Miller left (I know it was a year ago) and Wilson who had a spell in the team under Kettlewell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joewarkfanclub Posted Saturday at 11:53 PM Report Share Posted Saturday at 11:53 PM Im hoping Olly Whyte is gonna be taking up one of the midfield slots. If its Hallidays, Im fine with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems to be a plays across the front 3 type of attacker. Moorman replaces Welsh. He's Left footed and seems to be decent with the ball. I think we're probably still looking at another 7-10 signings before we're ready for the season: We need another CB at least maybe 2 McGinns out for months and McGhee is injury prone Need a LB. Would take James Furlong back if possible. Need a CM potentially. Need a Halliday replacement and potentially a Watt replacement if he's sold Need probably 2 attacking midfielders. Slattery is gone and Just will likely follow. Need a LW/RW what ever side we plan to use Vogt we need comp on the other side. Unless we think Luca Ross can make an impact. We need a ST. Bjorgolffson looks promising, Maswanhise is away realistically and Stamatelopolous will likely follow him out the door. Hendry looks like he'll be out for months so we need 1 potentially 2 Strikers in the door. I'd expect 5/6 to also leave - Just, Maswanhise, Watt, Stama, Oxborough, Wilson. 2/3 should be loans - CB can be cover until McGinn is back, ST to cover until Hendry is back, we have a decent track record of Loan LB signings. Gent, Furlong etc. Furlong available on a free transfer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
