    McNamara is an interesting one, 2 years ago Millwall were fighting to keep hold of him but seems like he’s fell well out of favour. Seems like the biggest link ATM is Bromley which makes sense as he’s local but I wonder if he might be looked at as competition at right back. Also pretty sure he’s not actually “proper ‘wall” as he comes from a Fulham family. 
    Not sure where you got that from. His family are most definitely Millwall. From the Sidcup area. Danny had a season ticket at Millwall as a youngster before signing as a youth player. 

    I actually browsed this thread to see if he got a mention. Would be a great signing for you. Miles too good for Bromley. Can still do a job at championship level in my humble opinion. A bit limited going forward but defensively he’s sound. I was sorry to see him go. 
    He probably would suit us 'MillwallFan' but after the nonsense posted on here after we signed Alex Mitchell, such as we robbed Millwall of their best player or Millwall were gutted to let him go, then I think we should all be a little bit wary of over blown reputations. But apart from that, is he an old fashioned full back or can he play wing back ?
    Definitely old fashioned full back. Primarily a right back but can do a job at left back as well. Excellent defender. Not a lot gets past him. Reads the game well, positioning is excellent. Gets stuck in. Never seen him shirk a tackle. Just going forward he’s limited. 


    Given that we play with wing backs, it's a strong no from me. I agree he could definitely do a job at full back but we need players who can defend and get forward.

    Him being a die hard Millwall fan doesn't help either.

    Third or fourth hand gossip says we've already bought a player for an undisclosed fee and sold a player for an undisclosed fee.

    No names given but given the timing my GUESS is that both are loans being turned into perm deals eg Mitchell to Plymouth and Fevrier or Clarke to Charlton.
    Would make sense although I would have been surprised if we jumped the gun so quickly on Mitchell considering he would have likely had interest from multiple L1 clubs could have potentially forced out a bidding war unless Plymouth just went all in already. 

    Considering we hadn’t used Fevrier much until the Hull game not sure we would have known we wanted him permanently. Considering Clarke has been a starter for 6 months that would probably have been in the works for a while 
    In the minority, but I don't think Fevrier is the answer. I hope it's not him. 
    I don't think he's gong to be an automatic starter but I think he's at least good enough as a squad option. If Edwards is able to overcome the injury that gives us options for a more defensive, safety first wing back and then Fevrier as the more attacking option and can cycle between them as needed.

    It may be that we agreed an optional purchase price in the loan deal to sign Fev and we may have decided to take that up to sign him permanently.

    As others have said most likely to be Mitchell to Plymouth on the outgoing one.

    Thats if either of those two rumours are correct of course.

    Not a rumour, a guess as to who the two player might be

    I suppose Fev has a bigger ceiling. Quite versatile in where he can play and has a touch of a wild card about him. 

    If we had a marquee signing then I hope he isn't it but personally have no issues with him joining the squad.

    Macnamara - definite no on every level + we are no longer shopping in millwall reject territory - i know they think they are light years ahead of us now but football doesn't work like that. They've built a team, it wasn't good enough, their best players will now be picked off and they will have to re build. If we hadn't gone up under curbs, we'd have lost kinsella, mendonca and a few others and been back in mid table. Same with any promotion push. We are in the build phase still, not the re-build.

    I hope it is Fev even taking into account recency bias I think he improved and offered more latter in the season is young and offers something different.

    A bird in the hand and all that, if the offer's decent.

    My question is why are Millwall letting him go ? 
    Given Aneke a run for his money with his injury issues last 3 years 
    expect us to announce him soon then on a 5 year deal

    I don’t think we’d be signing him as the answer. He’s only 23 and showed he can do a decent job at this level for us already, he seems to have fitted into our squad environment very well and is happy to be more of an impact player than a starter. 

    I’d be very happy with him providing it’s not too expensive and that we also plan to sign at least 2 more wing backs this summer (which I’m sure we will be doing)

    Surely a club that finished just outside the relegation zone would be willing to take on a player who just wasn’t quite good enough for a team that finished third in the league?

    If you’ve got any reject attackers or midfielders then maybe. But our defence is not “just outside the relegation zone” quality so he’s not better than the players we have already

    Even then, the margins are so slim in this division that the attacking rejects don't make much difference at the bottom of the table. Just need to look at Emakhu at Oxford for that

    Generally agree but we can’t / won’t do that wholesale. Think Edwards has a good shout for being  good enough to make that spot his own, even as we progress the next 3 / 4 years.

    And who is the current starter at RWB? We need to buy a starter and a squad option there

    We’ll lose Azeez. Maybe Crama. That will be it. There won’t be a big rebuild needed as you say. We always lose a big name each summer. It was Tanganga last year and Fleming the year before that. People panic and say how will we cope without them but we always get decent money for them and it gets reinvested and within a few weeks it’s Tanganga who?… Fleming who? Plus it helps keeps the books afloat. We more or less broke even last season. 

    Anyway, won’t take the thread off subject. Was just pointing out that Danny is still a decent enough player at championship level, but can see why he wouldn’t be the right fit for Charlton.

    Sure, but in this specific case the first team option would be Edwards, who we missed all last season. So that's your improvement and Fevrier is perfectly serviceable as the back up.

    I agree largely but think a lot of people are banking on Edwards coming back the same player after the best part of a whole year out of action with quite a serious injury. I really hope he does come back exactly the same player that left, but am feeling slightly pessimistic that we might see a 'worse' version of young Josh

    Unless there's a real turnaround from Apter we need to sign 3 wingbacks this summer and they need to have varied profiles. Fevrier can cover both sides and gives us the ability to play with proper wingers if we're chasing a game. If we don't sign him then we need to sign another player like him, at which point the conversation turns to whether we can afford to get a better player within the budget for around what he would cost. If we can then great, but if he's available at a low price and we can funnel that saved money into a first choice RWB and a LWB to compete with Edwards then it's a good signing. All depends on the context of the rest of our transfer business

    Just how we operate. No updates on Knibbs until he randomly appeared on the bench
