Dan's Summer Transfer Thread. Aka: " Post Mortem Time""


Recommended Posts

I feel we need a defender who can perform very well at left back as opposed to “just do a job there in case of injury” as Bola fitness issues pre season worry me a bit.

Current squad in terms of defence

 

Peltier - backup player

Djiksteel - likely starter

Fry - likely starter

Hall - likely starter 

McNair - likely starter in 3 but potentially played in midfield

Fischer - likely out for season

Wood - backup player more likely to go out on loan again

Bola - likely starter

Spence - club wanting to sell

Coulson - likely to go out on loan

Doesn't leave masses of cover in defence - hence saying I wouldn't be surprised for 2 coming in

Marvin Johnson has left so they're probably after cheap younger leftback replacement who can put a ball in and can play at CB too, though he's a far better leftback imo.

I think he was worth keeping as a leftback, but if he doesn't want to sign the contract promptly when offered he can coco, need everyone raring to go, and with the players we have who would probably be in front of him in his positions, it's a shame but I'm not gutted.

Didnt exist for us until last season, thought he had quite a few decent games when he did play, in a tough league, whilst we wasnt playing our best.

Having said that, if its true that he just didnt respond to our offer its very disrespectful, very least he could have said is thanks for the offer but he's moving on. Ive no time for rudeness, if this story is true then im glad he's moved on.

couple of comments from this thread: https://www.s24su.com/forum/threads/the-kean-bryan-thread.83497/page-5

guess i seen sheff utd prem games when bryan was doing well. knew he was a left back regardless of what positions say on web etc.

Love the fact that some are questioning why we would want two left footed CBs. 
why does no one ever ask why we have more than 2 right footed CBs? 
Left footers can play football in a right footer’s position in the same way as right footers do in left footer’s positions for the Boro at the moment.

according to sheff utd fans he was dodgy at lcb and better as a left back. with a good cross. so on that i'm happy. he is cover at cb and lb/lwb at minimum. which strengthens the squad and replaces what we lost (johnson) but for less wages.

Well the simple fact we don’t have a massive budget so would seem daft to waste it on two players who seem to play in the exact same positions. We have 2 strikers, one of which we know for a fact Warnock doesn’t rate.

I think we want to move spence and Coulson and Fischer is out for season so I don't think 2 coming in is daft.

Oh I’m not questioning whether or not we need him or can afford him, I’m just saying someone commented on the fact we were looking at two left sided CBs, if we sign a right footed CB then that’s also duplicating what we already have isn’t it?

Well yeah I agree with what your saying. However for some reason in football, a left sided centre half is seen as a luxury isn’t it 😂

I think Peltier is the Fisher replacement according to Warnock anyway. Either of these two would replace Coulson but I haven’t seen any links or concrete interest in Spence, I think he’ll stay tbh

I haven't seen anything on spence either other than we seem desperate to move him on.  I'm guessing it's an attitude thing with Warnock.  I just go on the 2 players in every position rule and I think we are short.

Yeah I also get the impression his attitude is poor. Also his ability isn’t the best either 😂
