A proper anchor of a DM who's actually mobile and composed on the ball with a good range of passing and workrate. Hopefully when Scott comes in that's the first thing he will look for because it's something we need massively. Mo Besic is a free agent , could he be a step up ?Olivier Ntcham would also fit the bill and is also a free agent. The Chalobah brothers would be good on loan but may not be allowed out on loan from their respective clubs. We need better than Howson and Paddy in CM, Lewis Ferguson and Ali McCann would do for me IF we could afford them. Gustavo Hamer and the more forward thinking Callum Ohare would also improve us. Ilias Chair looked quality last night. Surely we have another diamond on the list ? Link to post Share on other sites

Can’t wait! His English should be a good enough standard to understand instructions without a translator too, so we might see him integrated into the team quickly. Link to post Share on other sites

BoroSmoggie 2,678 Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 Usually some good holding midfielders available on loan from prem clubs. Won’t be a position we will improve this window though. Warnock loves Howson and Morsy Link to post Share on other sites
TLF10 4,440 Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 So closing in on Sporer and Van Bergen but still no closer to finding out who this mystery left sided defender is. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Mfcdanny 770 Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 Sporer, Van Bergen, LB? 2 free agents with one being a striker. Imaging adding bolaise to that aswell. Would be a fantastic transfer window 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Smokedsalmon 1,247 Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 The weirdest part about this window is how Isiah Jones has come out of nowhere to being our best attacking outlet, and even with all these new signings, I'd still have him #1 name on the teamsheet at left wing. 7 Link to post Share on other sites

CWC 383 Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 (edited) GK: Lumley / Daniels / James RB: Dijksteel / Peltier / Fisher (Injured) CB: Fry / Wood CB: Hall / Bamba LB: Bola / ? CDM: Morsy / Howson CM: McNair / Malley CM: Crooks / Payero RM: Tavernier / Van Bergen / Spence / Ameobi (Injured) LM: Watmore / Jones / Olusanya ST: Ikpeazu / Šporar / ? Assuming we get the deals that are reportedly close over the line, do we think there’s any other areas we may try to strengthen if something crops up late in the window?

I would too, but he’s likely to be susceptible to muscle injuries as the season goes on. He won’t be used to this many games in a short span. If he’s fit then he should be in the team Link to post Share on other sites

Assuming we get the deals that are reportedly close over the line, do we think there’s any other areas we may try to strengthen if something crops up late in the window? Nope, I would bring in a decent CDM if possible but think that will be one we have to wait till the summer for. But if we can get Olusanya, Sporar & Van Bergen over the line. Add in one more attacker and a LB it will have been a really solid window. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Jamie-H 1,322 Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 I'm happy with Van Bergen but I'm not going to judge him based off his Eredivisie stats or youtube highlights, Kristoffer Peterson looked like the coup of the summer for Swansea a couple of years ago based on his highlights/record but I don't even think he lasted a year before he was gone. Hopefully Van Bergen and Sporar add some extra quality to us, I like Djed Spence he's an honest runner but he doesn't offer much when we get near their box we need someone with a bit of technique who can commit their defenders like Willock was doing to ours on Wednesday. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
