So Bowyer said in the interview with Ben Ransom that he wants 7/8 signings. I'd guess something like two right backs, two centre backs, a left back, a winger, a striker and a winger or striker as the 8th.0

Included Watson so I reckon 6/7 more. 3/4 defenders and 2/3 wingers/strikers.Scoham said:So Bowyer said in the interview with Ben Ransom that he wants 7/8 signings. I'd guess something like two right backs, two centre backs, a left back, a winger, a striker and a winger or striker as the 8th.0 -

Bowyer has already spoken about wanting to send Josh Davidson out on loan. Around the current 1st team, no doubt there are a couple of other youngsters to go out also.
He'll be hoping to pull in squad replacements for those, perhaps?

Bows will want the best players he can sign and sort the formation out later. Expect midfielders because they are the best players in the team as they see the play 3D, see passes, have ball skills, can beat a player, score goals, can tackle, and have a football brain.Scoham said:So Bowyer said in the interview with Ben Ransom that he wants 7/8 signings.

Funnily enough, I was a midfielder.3 -
Must be tempting to go crazy but hope Bowyer doesn't, don't think we need to add many more, don't want a bloated squad of league one standard players when we go up.
Matthews
Lynch (sarr replacement)
Lockyer replacement
Danish forward
One of those Wide forwards bowyer seems to like, Leko/green
Loan in another Prem youngster to cover JFC/Williams breaking down
Deji/ Baker should be good enough to cover rb, Dougherty Lb cover, unless Gallen has a few decent deals lined up that would really make the difference and step up next season, then I'd see the above added making a decent promotion worthy squad.0 -
I’m assuming Watson is the eyebrow signing ?0

It doesn't really but Karlan has seemingly downed tools and wants out so it may be a case of getting whatever they can from him and moving on.Todds_right_hook said:

Seems not many agree but I still think we need at least another centre mid2

A Gallagher tenacious attacking type would do me.roseandcrown said:Seems not many agree but I still think we need at least another centre mid
Or Gallagher.2 -
Agreed... Our midfield options compared with last year with this is ridiculous - Still feels like many dont think an injury crisis could hit us againroseandcrown said:Seems not many agree but I still think we need at least another centre mid
I mean what did we have in that area last season:
(15): Williams | Forster-Caskey | Gallagher | McGeady | Pratley | Morgan | Kayal | Smith | Davis | Field | Oztumer | Lapslie | Dempsey | Doughty | Vennings
This season we've got
(12): Williams | Forster-Caskey | Pratley | Morgan | Oztumer | Lapslie | Watson | Gilbey | Levitt | Doughty | Dempsey | Vennings
Take the last two out as they need to go on loan and whilst we seem okay going forward, we still dont have a Cullen or a Bielik type player in there
Nor are we getting many goals from Midfield from that lot - Whereas in 2018/19 we had Aribo | Reeves | Bielik who chipped in with 17-goals with the over reliance on Taylor and Grant... Whilst I see Bonne potentially replicating and surpassing what Grant achieved for us that season (14), I dont see us having two Strikers get beyond that level unless Schwartz can settle quickly - Washington of course has had a good start and we can also rely on Doughty this season but can both be consistent enough in front of goal?
Thankfully we've only used the one loan slot at the moment
Tolaji Bola (Arsenal U23 Left-Back) was rumoured to be at the Doncaster game, how anyone knew who he was is beyond me though
Means we've still got three slots left available (as Bowyer never signs a sixth loan, apart from when he knew Field wasnt going to be fit), two of those I'd try and find CM's so that Dempsey and Venning in turn can go out on loan. I think then we should focus on getting our defence on permanent signings to get a settled back four

Whatever happened to Diego Poyet? Was so good in his first spell.2

Another one wouldn’t surprise me, Bowyer does like having plenty of options there.roseandcrown said:Seems not many agree but I still think we need at least another centre mid0 -
Why does our new signing look like my grandad?3

I get that. But the ability must still be there somewhere.MattF said:

Not my priority...roseandcrown said:Seems not many agree but I still think we need at least another centre mid
Yes it's great having lots of options in every position, but post lockdown we ended up fine in centre midfield, but short up front and at both left and right back. WE sent back Davis and Smith as we didn't need them

We overplayed Cullen and lacked a box to box midfielder after Gallagher left.killerandflash said:

Watson looks like my dad but the poor bloke is 2 years older than me.
Just goes to show exercise is fucking bad for you.21 - Sponsored links:

I reckon after the perm signing we will see a few loans from the prem, if we are now in a position to be picky, I think we need 2 RBs, 2CBs, 1 LB and 1 RF. If we’re going to use Doughty properly, we need another one similar on the other wing.0

Just wonder with the new found optimism if Phillips is having second thoughts,Charlton is going to be a good place to be.0

Could sign a year extension with a release clause in that would be triggered if we don’t get promoted, would work for both parties I think?!thickandthin63 said:Just wonder with the new found optimism if Phillips is having second thoughts,Charlton is going to be a good place to be.2 -
Think Amos signed on the basis that he'd be no.1 though, I think we should let Phillips leave.thickandthin63 said:Just wonder with the new found optimism if Phillips is having second thoughts,Charlton is going to be a good place to be.0 -
It will be refreshing knowing now that if Phillips is sold we will invest back into the team.ButtleJR said:

I think we should let him go and reinvest the money,but maybe he made his decision when the club was at its lowest level and may now be regretting it,especially if he thinks he could have got a decent contract.0

I think that’s the most frustrating thing about last 3/4 seasons. Excluding Lookman we’ve lost all our best players for basically nothing and haven’t been able to bring replacements in.CHG said:

To think we received less than for 10 million for Grant, Konsa, Pope, Aribo, Bauer & Fosu and only seen 200K spent on Bonne.4 -
A new contract will be limited by the salary cap, we might not be able to even offer him what he’s on now.thickandthin63 said:I think we should let him go and reinvest the money,but maybe he made his decision when the club was at its lowest level and may now be regretting it,especially if he thinks he could have got a decent contract.
I guess we’ll be offering substantial promotion bonuses since those don’t appear to count as part of the salary cap.0 -
It's not that, but in that case should we be having three for every position just in case. You don't have 10 CM's because you might have 5/6 injuires in that positon. Does that mean we need 6+ CB's and Strikers? We'd end up with a squad of about 35 (impossible because of salary cap anyway unless they are all kids).ForeverAddickted said:

I actually agree I would have another CM in terms of quality but we need to focus on getting 3/4 defenders and a striker before we start worrying about the midfield.1
