FinallyRegistered 91 Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 Based on NW’s comments, he’s happy with the strikers after Sporar comes in. Looks likes we’ll get a left back, Sporar, Van Bergen and possibly a free agent winger but that might be it. Decent transfer window if so Link to post Share on other sites

DevKWat 2,371 Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 Uche has been immense but if he can’t play more than 60 minutes I’d be starting Sporar and bringing Uche off the bench, a fresh Ikpeazu against tiring defenders he’ll batter them from pillar to post 3 Link to post Share on other sites

DevKWat 2,371 Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 Once everyone is in and fit we’re going to have so many options in attack, which is refreshing in itself Link to post Share on other sites
DevKWat 2,371 Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 I really don’t think we need another winger now.. Jones, v.Bergen, Watmore, Tav, Olusanya, Spence. Link to post Share on other sites

When fit, Watmore and Tav represent a good wide pairing, while Jones has shown immense promise. But I think it's a bit hasty to assume our wide issues are over. I still think we need at least one more wide player beyond MvB, allowing Spence to stay further back, Olusanya to get up to speed with the Championship and Watmore/Tav to be rotated to minimise their risk of injury. EDIT: Someone has mentioned Browne and Ameobi, but the latter is supposedly out for the next year and the former has been out for almost as long, plus I'm not convinced Browne is a wide player so much as a central midfielder. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Words I never thought I’d see written on this thread 😁 it’s been a very good window. Now we just need Tav and Watmore fit. NW is going to have to make some difficult starting 11 decisions, because the team has pretty much been picking itself due to injuries for a while. Link to post Share on other sites

Looks good on paper but realistically only Tav and Watmore have done it at this level. Jones looks great and fingers crossed he keeps his form, he’s undroppable if he does. The rest all have question marks. I’d have personally liked a proper first 11 quality winger who guarantees goals/assists to have come in, but not the end of the world. Like I say, if Jones keeps his form up and Tav is fit then the two or them on the wings is fine. Hopefully v.Bergen can step up aswell. Watmore is always a goal threat when he’s on the pitch aswell. Nice mix of different players with different styles. Link to post Share on other sites

If we bring someone else in thats 6/7 players fighting for 2 spots and whoever we bring in you think will either be lower league or a free agent lacking match fitness, when Tav and Watmore should be back soon 🤞🏼 1 Link to post Share on other sites
DevKWat 2,371 Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 If we only got a LB from now to the end of the window after expected signings come in I’d be happy. Link to post Share on other sites
LBP 3,035 Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 I imagine Browne will be loaned out to lower end champ teams or league 1 in January 1 Link to post Share on other sites
