McG and Egbo I would keep .Themightyath2 said:Ideally, we’ll bring in another LWB, a RWB and someone that can cover both sides (Sess would be ideal if fit), a CF, CB and an attacking midfielder.
If we can bring in those 6 (some of which can be loans), we should look to lose the following:
Egbo, DJ, Kirk, McG, Payne
and send some of the youngsters out on loan (eg Mitchell).
I agree with DJ , Kirk and Payne all preferably permanent moves away.
Mitchell, Henry and a couple more of the younger players could do with loan moves.
Henry is 19 and isn't still in the academy and should definitely go out on loan.
Mitchell was 18 in January so he will be better learning on and off the field at Sparrows lane and what ever he is studying at College.3 -

The same sales doc that mentions closing the very same academy that CM and Co.

Do you think that we were lining him up as a possible replacement for Leaburn, until he was injured and any plans of cashing in had to be suspended? I was encouraged by us offering that amount of cash, but was that on the condition there was a Leaburn windfall? The Texas sales docs did state that Leaburn would be sold.6 -

I think we can all safely assume that the sales document was bullshit. My own theory is that it was put together on someone’s laptop and put out there to try and cause trouble for some reasonsam3110 said:

Got fooled on Twatter when an old tweet came up saying we'd signed Nial John on a seasons loan from Spuds.1

It is this or 5 midfielders for me, it's the position where we have the most quality so should exploit that in the mean time. 451, 433. It will be hard for May as he will be leading the line alone but I don't see how we are gonna get a result against the O's playing a formation we don't have the players for. I like the formation as it is fluid and it does work, just don't think we have the quality of player to make it work.East Kent Addick said:If we don't sign another forward in time for Orient then I think we should revert to 433 and play CBT and Campbell up alongside May - we don't have anyone available to play alongside May in a front 2. Don't want to see yet another season of square pegs in round holes - CBT is no wing back and Kirk/DJ/Campbell are not right as front 2 partners for May.
It's disappointing that we go into the first game without a complete first eleven yet again, said it before but if we have to persist with a transfer window it would make sense it closing before the start of the season rather than 1 month in.
CBT, May, Dobbo, Fraser, Camara and Anderson all need to be on the pitch somehow, can only be achieved by playing 4 at the back.0 -
Playing those 5 simply can’t be achieved unless you play a diamond and CBT up top.Braziliance said:

We might have wingers but they’re not very good so I don’t understand the clamour for a 433.0 -
A diamond does look the best option to me, although not sure who would play full back.cafcfan1990 said:

Certain players aren’t fully fit after recovering from injuries, some new signings won’t have bedded in yet, and we’re short in a couple of key positions, but I’m guessing that the same sort of thing would apply to many of our rivals?
It’ll be important to scrap for points even if we’re still a work in progress, and picking up three point on Saturday is, dare I say, crucial.11 -

So are you saying it might be better signing players in June rather than July.JamesSeed said:Certain players aren’t fully fit after recovering from injuries, some new signings won’t have bedded in yet,
Just wanted to be certain....🤔🤭0 -
August coming up fast, and we have one senior striker fit at the moment, that’s not good preparation considering the season starts next weekend.
Got to bring in a striker and a wing back / full back/ whatever you want to call them this week, please SMT, or we will struggle to get a draw against Orient.

Striker unlikely to come in until later in Aug. We need Palace to sign a winger and Ipswich to bring in Rak-Sakyi + 1 more before the likes of Ladapo become available (who I expect is our top target).
Would be good if we can bring in a left footed centre back & another wing back before then though (two other positions we really need to strengthen asap).

We’re facing the reality of a late / recent takeover. Recruitment has been good and it’s worth remembering that for one of the positions we’re desperately trying to address, striker, we were very close to signing Sam Smith and it was only the players preference to join Reading that stopped us already being much better equipped for the season. I certainly don’t blame the club for not paying £1 million plus for Nombe or even more for JCH. Players of equal standing like Ladapo are not (yet ?) available and PL loans won’t be easy until their squads are announced. We’ve been unlucky with Miles getting injured. I don’t think us fans are any more frustrated than Holden and Scott are. Money isn’t so readily available that we don’t need to balance the books and squad by getting some players moved on. I think we can all appreciate that it might be harder than we’d want. We might just need to muddle through for a few games until everything falls into place. Personally I’d be surprised if it doesn’t.28

All players are for sale if the right or irrefuseable offer comes in. That doesn’t mean we were openly looking to sell Miles and I don’t think we were.7

Also that absolute shitrag calling him unemployed, he is a free agent after his contract expired just like hundreds of other footballers.

Maitland-Niles will get a club easily. Someone in the Prem will take a punt on him as a utility player or a top end championship club.0

Phil Jones who has 27 caps for England is in the same boat but I don't see the Sun calling him "unemployed".22 -
