Man City won the treble by playing centre backs at full back in Ake/Akanji, or Walker who is more known for his defensive work at right back. Whilst it’s nice to have it’s not vital

Yeah I’d have thought it would’ve been compensation, seen Key linked with Swansea. Collins I’m shocked hasn’t had a lot of interest yet, only heard really good things about him

Same with Exeter as their right wing back Key has turned down a new contract and available on a free

You guys reckon this might’ve been announced on a Monday instead?

Intrigued with Coventry as I suspect they will look very different next season and Sunderland are linked with some intriguing players. Guess Cardiff with that new manager could be interesting and Ipswich with how they will attack the league

I did find it interesting as I assumed he was brought in as a midfielder. Do think/hope we stick with 4 at the back, McCrorie sounds like he can play in right full back (if that is the main position Nige has opted for him), Dickie can play in a partnership and Roberts would surely be an alternative to Bryan as a left full back?

Looks like he’s rattled us all

Sam Bell was in the video of Rob Dickie’s medical doing some fitness stuff, surprised as everywhere I look the city lads are still not in the country!

I would’ve been very happy with Bryan but it’s not the end of the world if he has decided he’d get a better deal elsewhere. Roberts does look a really good deal for us though

Tbf Martinez from Man United is only an inch taller and was up there with one of the best in the league last season

They’re under an embargo aren’t they? I know they can sign free agents so Bryan isn’t off the cards but cannot see why he’d go there over us

Definitely not especially with Caicedo highly rumoured to go. Milner ultimate utility player who can come on to see out a lead and can play several positions

Possibly, did see they’re signing Dahoud on a free from Dortmund so no idea if that’s the replacement

Saw this on the weekend For context, the womens team lost 12-0!

Dickie and Sykes both started the league 1 playoff final. Sykes was midfield I believe

If we get him back playing to the level he was at under Warburton/Beale then we have an absolute steal on our hands there

Yeah joined up late, think his sister opened up a store or something? No idea who the guy is next to Bentley must be a non work mate

Oh I know that’s why Bryan’s is delayed I’m just saying it is possible to announce players before they announce the retained list.

Chair supposedly going with Leicester linked, seen that Willock will be off. I quite like Ainsworth but can see this ending in tears

Have to announce him like this but with “Dickie extension”

Norwich signed Stacey from Bournemouth before announcing the retained list I believe

Thankfully not as hands on as he used to be. Believe Nicky Butt has taken the reigns now, and appointed the new manager who’s taken them to the playoffs.

Plymouth got 2 more points than our promotion season and are same odds as us when Wednesday are shorter? I don’t see Wednesday as too different to when they went down tbh, like you said with sensible recruitment they should be ok but that isn’t a guarentee under the Chansiri’s
