TeaCider's Summer Transfer Thread 2022 - AKA: Still Going For Just a Little Luongo


Recommended Posts

Lumley, Daniels, Taylor, Hall, Peltier, Fisher, Olusanya, Ameobi, Uche, Spence, Akpom out for sure. Coulson will probably follow. 😢

With JLS, Sporar, Connolly, Balogun to have their loans ended, that leaves us with:

GKs: Brynn
CBs: Dijksteel, Fry, Wood, McNair, Bamba?
WBs: Jones, Bola
CMs: Tav, Payero, Howson?, Crooks, McGree
FWs: Watmore, Coburn

So 2 GKs, a LCB, a RWB, a LWB, a CM for the deeper role and 2-3 FWs.

Eight in, 12 out for me. If we can sign:

2x goalkeepers

1x LWB

1x RWB (or bring back Spence)

1x CB

1x ACM (a new Gaston, to link midfield and the strikers)

2x ST

...while keeping our crown jewels (Tav, Jones, McNair et al), we'll have a squad truly deserving of promotion next season. 

In terms of outgoings, you could put a line through half our squad without missing any of them. My suggestions would be to dispatch Hall, JLS, Lumley, Connolly, Daniels, Taylor, Olusanya, Peltier, Ameobi, Balogun, Coulson and Sporar.

Agree with most of that. Would take Balogun on loan again and keep Taylor as a squad filler though.

Brining in quality players in each of those positions is a big, big ask... We'll be after the same free agents as teams with budgets equal to and bigger than ours.

Surely keeping Spence is out of the question if want to fund the rest of those incomings.

I suspect the club is banking on a big deal happening there. It could really help us fund big moves in important areas. A keeper and up front are vital.

I'd say we need: 

1x GK - an indisputable first choice who hasn't been dropped by their previous side for errors. Move on Lumley if possible.

1x LWB - whether it's as first choice or back up to Bola, we need to strengthen here. Taylor could be a utility defender if he wanted to stay.

2x CB - I expect Hall and Bamba to be moved on, Peltier to be offered an extension, and we need solid back-up options beyond him. Wood may fill one of those slots, and there's also the risk of losing Fry or McNair to a PL club.

1x CDM - Howson is getting in in the years, I'd offer him an extension but we need a younger option here too.

2-3x ST - None of the loan strikers should be here next season, bar possibly Balogun, and I think whether it's 2 or 3 depends on whether we can sell Ikpeazu and Akpom.

 

 

I don't see Bamba being moved on, surely he should be offered a player coach role? He's done more than a job at CB this season and his influence in the dressing room is obviously important.

I think he's largely been excellent whenever he's played, with the obvious exception of Preston.

But he's 37 and you can see he's gained weight in the last few months.

His fitness will naturally decline next year, I'm not sure on it.

On current performances he'd be fine as a back up for sure, but it would inevitably be a stop gap.

I wonder how much would be given to Wilder to reinvest... Either way, a big sale would be very welcome. 

The hype is building around him which can only help. POTM award and England U21 call up last month too. 

If Forest get in the play offs (they likely will) and he performs, or even helps get them promoted, we could be looking at a serious fee.

In a way, Forest getting promoted could help with that.

It would guarantee one Premier League that would be desperate to sign him and they wouldn't see it as a gamble to pay the money.

Obviously I'd sooner we were promoted at their expense though.

Slightly controversial or maybe not? If Bamba retires could Grant Hall not be Frys back up?

I know he not had a look in under Wilder but he has been fit for majority of Wilders time here. And he always seemed seemed fairly solid when he did play under Warnock.

We need a left sided first choice CB and a back up left sided CB. Maybe Jack Simpson from Rangers for the back up?

That's about the state of things but Id be very surprised if we manage to keep hold of all our other saleable assets. I think you can probably add one of Fry/Tav/McNair/Jones to fund a rebuild. Even if we got 20m for Spence, it doesn't go far if you are wanting 2 quality forwards. Personally I'd be up for McNair going if we received a good offer. I think he's the most easily replaced out of the 4 mentioned.

GK - ?, ?, Brynn

RWB - Jones, ?

CB - Dijksteel, Wood

CB - Fry, Bamba

CB - McNair, ?

LWB - , Bola

CDM - Howson, ?

CM - Payero, Crooks

CM - Tav, McGree, Boyd-Munce

ST - Gyokeres, Coburn

ST - ?, ?, Watmore

I think Fisher has a part to play as back up when he comes back

Big ask keeping hold of Tav, Jones and Fry like, fear one will end up going most likely Tav

That’s a big collection of meh.

16 players out and our first team doesn’t look much different (plus you could add Ameobi to the list - unless he can play left wing back)

Looks like another massive summer rebuild.

let hope our super duper recruitment team are up for it.

Vyrda is a free agent. Good player at this level

Was just thinking about him yesterday. If we did blow a considerable some on a Gyokeres type signing we could do a lot worse than vydra to go alongside.
