Since there’s no rumours to go off yet, here’s an early wishlist for certain positions…
Left back: Callum Elder, Tayo Edun, Ethan Bristow
Right back: Shaun Rooney, Josh Key
Centre back: Lewis Gibson, Sam Hughes
Centre mid: Jensen Weir, Owen Moxon
Wingers: Ruben Rodrigues, Gavin Whyte
Strikers: Alfie May, Mo Eisa, Macauley Langstaff
Expect none of them to turn up at Sparrows Lane this summer. :-)
Ethan Bristow has been on my radar for a little while as has Josh Key. Both a good age and have a lot of potential
Both would probably also fit into the hypothetical model of developing promising younger players and selling at profit that both rumoured buyers seem to be favouring.
Can’t see us getting a right back when we already have Egbo & two other right footed full backs (Clare & Sess) are rumoured to have been offered deals.
100% need all other positions though. The quality of the striker we bring in will make or break our season imo. We need Leaburn, Chuks & a 20 goal a season man.
In all honesty thou... I would love us to get Ben Purrington back. I know he got a lot of hate but a whole season with no real left back showed but he was a consistent full back and showed under Jacko just how good he could be. A left back capable to play in the league, can attack, usually quite fit (about from a bad injury this season) and probably available after counties relegation this season...
I think a RB is on the wish list. What that means for Clare/Egbo I don’t yet know? I would much prefer those two stayed we got in two competent left back options myself, if my understanding is correct…
The player we’d be more likely to sign who Holden might sign from stoke (was on loan there) is Liam delap. Not set the world alight and don’t personally rate him as a champIonship player. However, a drop down in leagues may help him

Judging by the picture I have just seen, I reckon he’ll definitely be on our scouting radar 😂
haha, never rated him and got pelters from a few on here for saying it. Was an expensive mistake from Charlton, him and Gilbey signed at the same time I think. Was told we had spent a large amount of our salary budget on those two at the time, due to the salary cap. People in the game were lifting an eyebrow at that bit of biz
Liam Delap is the type of player Man City will sell for £10m+ to someone like Bournemouth. Like they did last summer with Romeo Lavia and Sam Edozie to Southampton.

Not wrong.. Bang average!! Pretty sure the same people rated him, also rated Bonne!!
If you've ever used WhoScored, you will know that their player ratings are absolutely woeful and rarely ever get a line up correct. Washington is far from the worst performer in his position in the league, he has been for Rotherham what he was for us a hardworking and honest. They managed to stay up with an underequipped squad having lost some key players to Sheff Weds at the start of the season, I'd take a few more like him every day of the week.

According to wiki he scored 5 goals in 35 appearances

Yeah not a big return, but still joint second top scorer in a struggling team in the division above ours. I am not massive CW fan, but those who write him off as useless and the idea he isn't a very useful player at this level who occupies defenses with pace and intelligent runs as well as chipping in with a few goals just isn't true.
He's absolutely a league one player, his goal scoring record at this level is about 1 in 3 which combined with his other strengths is pretty good. Higher than L1 though and he drops off to the point where just running and effort don't cut it alone.

I would agree that he was a handful in league one with his running in behind and Stockley probably had one of his best seasons playing along side him….. but he missed too many good chances for us which cost us points and I thought at the time that his finishing would let him down in the championship… which it has

Edit: oops RIP in fact
Adam Matthews obviously. JFC while he was injured. I think Johnny Williams originally "left" after we got promoted.
Other than that it has all been "options" activated hasn't it?
Randall Williams is at Bolton & Joe Randall is at Peterborough. Neither really set the world alight this season
