Kelly out and Sammy in really. We still need another keeper and still crying out for a big man up top and a right back. Brentford keeper coming for £4m maybe. Can't underestimate the impact of continuity though. That was one of our problems for a while last season IMO, with all the outgoings. Another year together should only make us stronger. Of course still 2-3 more we need I think, but continuity alone can be worth quite a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get that and I think we will make the playoffs. Now that Dasilva is perm and Kalas imminent and if Webster stays then that is the first choice back four sorted Still think we need another defensive midfield type (Joe Williams) and like you say a striker who can get you 15-20 goals. I understand we are trying hard for Nketiah season long loan from Arsenal and he is LJs first choice but it’s down to who Arsenal bring in so could be a last minute deal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of games we drew and lost last season we were on top and just didn’t take our chances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddie Notgetinya Posted June 28, 2019 Report Share Posted June 28, 2019 Looks like we are doing very good business so far. I’ll be very happy if/when Kalas and Bentley are confirmed. after that RB and ST have to be the priorities, and keeping Webster. We’ll definitely need a winger when COD goes. I think then we’ll see a lot of the younger players loaned out (not Semenyo though) and hopefully move Watkins on. I can see Baker going aswell if we were to bring in someone like Jordan’s willis. Exciting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There really isn't pleasing many people is there. Not meant as a dig, but the team last season finished just outside the playoffs. If it is the same team this year, with a year of experience and playing together, I would be delighted tbf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First it was people saying we haven't signed anyone when hardly any champ teams had, and players were on their holidays. It seems very likely we will get Gillmartin, Bentley, Rowe, Kalas, Szmodics and possibly Palmer too. We already have Dasilva. That's 7 if they all happen. LJ said he regretted not getting in another midfielder in January. Bound to be one - Williams I reckon. And up top I would be very surprised if we leave it as it is. So I expect 9 at least overall. We have 40 odd days to complete those as well. Pearson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were not done deals that fell apart at the last minute. That really doesn't happen very often to any Gayle and Gray were both interested in signing but the deals were scuppered by one of our leaders trying to get them to come on a cheaper wage Hence why cotts threw his toys out the pram with Lansdown.
