Wanted by champ clubs though isnt he so if we got him it shows we have a certain pull still.DubaiCAFC said:

JR rules ok.
Let it be improvements on the escapees.

But we are a League One club, Golfie. In theory(!) we try to get a couple of the 'stars of the future' from Prem clubs whose sideline business is to make money out of a 'loan production line'.golfaddick said:
You know we DONT have to take up quota of 5 loans don't you. We could, heaven forbid, just sign players as per (on a free even) and have OUR players playing for us, rather than Chelsea's. That also means we wont be forever having to sign players on a yearly basis.Oggy Red said:
No doubt we'll look to sign our full compliment of loan players, around 5.golfaddick said:
And of course leaving transfer dealings to after the season has started really worked well for us last year.addick1956 said:
Season starts on 30th July. PANIC , EVERYONE PANICScoham said:Pretty much halfway through June without any signings. We can officially hit the panic button.
Imagine the reaction if our first signing is announced in July and it’s Elliot Lee.
Did you not learn anything from last year ?
Although the way the loan system works out, we're likely to have to wait for most of our loan signings until August/just before the window slams shut.
Same as every club at our level.
Why dont WE take the initiative rather than pandering to the "big" clubs and end up scrabbling around on deadline day.
Alright, in plain English, the Cullens, Bieliks and Gallaghers ...... kids with Prem Cat One pedigree, who are now ready (hopefully) to gain valuable experience playing mens football. Right now we could never afford to buy this quality of player, so loans are our affordable route. It's always a gamble of course, because some of these are not really ready. We would hope they must be better than our own youngsters though, right?
And maybe Championship players who are available once their squads have been sorted. You know how it goes.
It's not just us, of course ..... every League One club tries to do the same thing. Many Championship clubs also.0 -
There were rumours at the end of last season that Sandgaard didn’t want to pay big loan fees, hence why we ended up with Castillo and Niles John. Maybe they weren’t good enough or not ready? Maybe Sandgaard didn’t see the point with promotion unrealistic? Who knows.Oggy Red said:

IF, a big IF of course we managed to get Naby and Tucker, surely that would mean Clare will be used in the middle of the park, as the back three would be Naby, Tucker and Lavelle?0

Good. We don't want another Ben.The Red Robin said:Ben Thompson has joined Peterborough. Always rated him.4 -
We don't know though. Even if that's the plan now, the budget can change like season ...... but hopefully not that late!The Red Robin said:

Can't see us using a back three anywaySouthLondonisRed said:IF, a big IF of course we managed to get Naby and Tucker, surely that would mean Clare will be used in the middle of the park, as the back three would be Naby, Tucker and Lavelle?1 -
One of those players who makes a side difficult to play against.The Red Robin said:Ben Thompson has joined Peterborough. Always rated him.

Oh I don't know! That Ben Zema claimed to be an addicks fan back in the day. Not really a like for like replacement for our last Ben though, Mr Purrington, unless we can deploy him as flying left wing back. However, at 34 his legs might have gone a bit. Its a shame really, probably not going to happen this season.JamesSeed said:

and the season starts a week earlier for the league than last.blackpool72 said:
Good information this.swordfish said:Last seasons summer signings, including those who signed new contracts (with Done Deal dates). Apologies for missing off Ben Watson, his was an extension clause triggered I think. Almost a year to the day since Stockley!Stockley 15th June McGillivray 28th June Dobson 1st July Forster-Caskey 5th July Famewo 8th July Matthews 8th July Clare 20th July Kirk 12th Aug Blackett-Taylor 20th Aug Lee 26th Aug Leko 31st Aug Arter 31st Aug Lavelle 31st Aug Souare 6th Sept Henderson 7th Sept
It sums up why we should do our business earlier this year.
Five of our late signings last season were as you have posted
Lee
Leco
Arter
Souare
Henderson.
That's the sort of players you are left with come the end of the window.
Let's not leave it that late this season.0 -
I thought we'd got over the "lets make a big signing as a signal of intent" phase.0
