Uwe 3,545 Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 18 minutes ago, Downsouth said: Our problem certainly last season and for many seasons really is that we do not score enough goals reading the names on the thread will that change and if so where will the extra goals come from? Then you have to address the problem of why we didn’t score enough goals? Was it the strikers? Not in my opinion, Britt is a very capable goal scorer and even Fletcher came good towards the back end of the season. Did the midfield contribute to enough goals? Not even close think Paddy & Wing got 5/7 goals in the league Did the midfield create enough chances for our forwards? I think the general consensus is no. But then was this the midfield fault or the fault of the system and tactics they were told to employ Personally we need to sort out the back four as we are obviously light there but it seems that’s in hand. Then we definitely need to add creativity and width to our midfield. It needs thinning out and rebuilding the that would be the priority for me. But it’s obviously easier said than done 1 Link to post Share on other sites
ManBearPig 1,853 Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 Creativity through the middle has always been our Achilles heel since dropping into the championship. Tomlin and Ramirez are our most successful players but I also can’t think of many others we have had who fit that mould? Until we address it then I think we are always going to struggle, but I live in hope that this will be the window that changes it! 1 Link to post Share on other sites
edinboro 815 Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 There must be some signing news today surely. If not I suspect Warnock is finding it as hard as all our managers to get people in when we don't pay stupid wages. Which is the trade off. I hope we get decent enough players in before Sept 12. We need a good start this season. Link to post Share on other sites
nunthorpered 1,922 Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 (edited) Doubt we will see any prem loans in til september/oct. As far as a lot of clubs are concerned, its still early in recruitment terms Link to post Share on other sites

I'd rather nip in and steal Freddie Woodman from Swansea - they're about to renew his loan from Newcastle. Link to post Share on other sites
TeaCider24 12,646 Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 A shame to see a young local keeper leave if true, but I don't think Pears has been overly impressive in his half season. Could see it ending up like Connor Ripley, leaving here to warm the bench elsewhere. Link to post Share on other sites

Explains why we’re after a keeper Also explains why we've heard nothing about us renewing his contract or taking the year option on his current deal. Bit of a shame as he certainly has potential to be a good keeper for us. But as it stands we aren't exactly losing a keeper of Randolph quality, in losing Pears. Link to post Share on other sites

It seems the club are backing Sol Brynn as the long term chance for a keeper from the academy, I wouldnt be surprised if Mejias left too so then we are left with a new senior keeper, Stojanovic and Brynn Link to post Share on other sites
