Ashtonwurzel Posted August 3, 2017 Report Share Posted August 3, 2017 With Wilbs going and reading between the lines Engvall either leaving on loan or for good along with Đurić being out for an unspecified length of time with his injury we could well be looking at two new forwards. Thoughts ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IdliketoRogerMoore Posted August 3, 2017 Report Share Posted August 3, 2017 Not sure Engvall is going anywhere yet, hopefully he'll be given a proper chance here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 3, 2017 Report Share Posted August 3, 2017 We will be starting Sat with nothing but hope gained from thrashing non league teams, thankfully though against one of the poorest starters. Lee is certainly taking a gamble imo, one that may prove costly to him and us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We def need a proven one and quick, you know just like the one who had his head turned by Bolton, maybe a little bit younger. What have we got? one who joined late last season and is yet to hardly find the barn door let alone hit it often; another who spent most of his time loaned out, another who seems a bit sick note`ish so not many championship goals between them yet; then we move on to our new signing who we all hope is another Kod and will run the championship defences ragged.... as yet untested in this league....will be interesting to see how many that lot will get this season.

MarkRed! Posted August 3, 2017 Report Share Posted August 3, 2017 I would be really disappointed if Engvall went. Not really given any chance has he? When on loan scored goals and scored at Cheltenham. What more can he do? The one things that still bugs me with LJ is that I don't think he is honest. Tomlin - "I am gonna build team around him", week later he is sold with suggestions of him having problems behind the scenes. Engvall - "I am bringing him back from loan, that was always the plan".... if he then goes out again, plainly LJ does not fancy him. If that is the case what a waste of time.... I don't think the players we have been linked with, Bogle and Mason are upgrades.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is widely agreed that pre-season games mean nothing, do you think our squad is now stronger or weaker than it was this time last year? weaker up front and weaker in defence if Flint goes; of course many hope that we will shoot up the table and steer clear of a relegation fight but its based on hope rather than anything else. We are ready to go though according to LJ so lets go then and see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loco Rojo Posted August 3, 2017 Report Share Posted August 3, 2017 He'll start with 1 up top and Reid just behind and have Engvall and maybe young Hinds on the bench. Enough cover for Saturday. Not convinced LJ fancies starting with 2 up front even at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobBobSuperBob Posted August 3, 2017 Report Share Posted August 3, 2017 Bear in mind that LJ said ( Sound Of Ity Monday.) when he talks about adding a couple , that could also include promoting a young player into the 24 - so not necessarily purchases or loans in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are ready to go though according to LJ so lets go then and see. Definitely stronger in defence than it was this time last year! Last year : Bryan, Mags, Flint, Little This year : Bryan +1 year, Baker, Wright, Pisano You could also argue Tammy was a bit of an unknown quantity and we could never have expected what a season he would have, as is the same really with Diedhiou. With all that considered I'd say our squad looks stronger now than it did this time last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
