A couple of other youngsters, trialists and signings like Oztumer and I'm sure there's 22 that can play
Of course we will have 22 players who CAN play. I am sure we will have plenty of 17 year olds at the club. But the concern is not being able to get 11 blokes to go out and play, it's the quality of those 11.
You're concerned about the quality of the 11 players who will play in a behind closed doors friendly in the grounds of a hotel against a Romanian side no one has heard of?

I'm sure Seb Lewis and a couple of hotel porters will make up the numbers anyway
I suppose the benefit for Williams is the fact there isnt really a rush for him to find a club provided he keeps his levels of fitness up
Transfer Window can close and if another club comes along in dire need of a Midfielder (due to a ACL in the opening game etc.) then Williams will be in a key negotiating position
If of course that doesnt happen and we put in a serious offer for him then we've got our man, its a win-win position for him at the moment

No I’m concerned we are offering peanuts to any player that Gallen and Bowyer want. That results in those players going elsewhere.
Plenty of time left but the free agent list gets shorter every day.
Williams, Oztumer would certainly fill the gaps in the creative midfielder area left by Reeves going, Forster-Caskey I'm looking at as the replacement for Cullen leaving. Still think we'd need a couple in to replace Aribo's and Bielik's roles

Sarr has dyed his hair blonde
Edit: oh dear!!
From Williams' Instagram stories, is the quote on the back wall a coincidence?

Surely someone else would have shown interest in him by now for him to have gone elsewhere?
Prediction. They will drip feed similar tweets then reveal a signing around 4pm

I'm hoping we get Bielik to replace.....er......Bielik
I still reckon we'll sign Cullen as well on loan
