Alves car salesman 152 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Grey from Brentford? Wilson on loan from Man United? Rhodes from Blackburn Surely AK will look at the Spanish league also Link to post Share on other sites
stewato 3 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Big bids for Adomah and Friend? I hope so. Good wing players yes, but neither is a very accurate crosser of the ball. One of the reasons why our goal tally was so low this season. The other is that we are ineffective from set pieces. You may disagree, but how many goals have been scored as result of crosses from our wingers. How may goals scored from set pieces. The answer as compared with other teams finishing at the top end of the league, is not enough. Friend is the best rb in the division and a huge threat like today a big loss if he goes I agree with you, but could we afford to turn down any big bid for him. I'm afraid the answer is no. Friend is our LB isn't he :blush: Link to post Share on other sites
Alves car salesman 152 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Do you stick or twist on Kike? Link to post Share on other sites
Essuuaitch 330 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 dunno whether wages would be too high but even though i dont particularly rate him at his present level i cant help feeling Carlton Cole would be prolific at this level Link to post Share on other sites
smogsterking the Inspirati 2,453 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Stick with him I think. He has shown flashes of brilliance this season but lost confidence perhaps due to a new country and culture. Also with Bamford more or less gone Vossen unclear we may already need 2-3 new strikers before even bringing Kike into the equation. Link to post Share on other sites
Essuuaitch 330 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 please dont mention Danny Graham thats all i ask . Link to post Share on other sites
juninho9 35 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 I agree with most on here, that we need 2 RBs, a CB, LM, no.10 and a ST. I read somewhere that Kalas is going to come back but can't remember where. I think him staying around even after his loan contract was up shows that he wants to come back. Would be amazing if we kept Friend. Can't see Vossen or Bamford returning, and Ledesma and Williams will be gone. Would love Woodgate to stay as a coach. Link to post Share on other sites
Alves car salesman 152 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Could we send Vossen back then try for a cut price deal? Surely his value is well below £4 million Link to post Share on other sites
Prowler 197 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Do you stick or twist on Kike? Get actual movement in and around him and give him more supply and he could at least double his tally. Would help if he played more than 10 minutes a game too :P Link to post Share on other sites
DanFromDownSouth 1,706 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 I wonder what will happen to forgotten man Rhys Williams? Will we see a mutual termination of his, I imagine fairly lucrative contract? Or will AK wait and see how he is after his injury? I also reckon we will see a lot of movement out of the club in terms of contracted fringe players, Whitehead, Abella, Ledesma, Luke Williams et al. And I think we will get a lot of cash freed up via loanees going back. I imagine the likes of Bamford, Vossen and Fredricks have us paying a high percentage of their wages. I think with loanees going back, the selling or termination of fringe players and expiring contracts we will have lots of flexibility and wiggle room in the transfer market.

34. 22 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 I'm not too bothered about who we do sign, I trust AK on that. The most important thing is retaining our core players this season and for me personally I would say especially Friend. Find a PL club to pay a few mil for luxury Tomlin and put that towards something. Link to post Share on other sites
ham_chop 36 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Id expect a few ins and outs, i fear that george and albert will go but husband has room to grow and carayol maybe needs a player to move on to get back in the squad. 2/3 strikers is a must, maybe look at rhodes if the price is right. would love to keep vossen but think he will go back to genk, sadly Link to post Share on other sites
samuk 0 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Probably unlikely but I would like to see us go for Alireza Jahanbakhsh, had a great season at NEC with 13 goals and 18 assists and could potentially be a cheap risk. Link to post Share on other sites
ASDFC101 9 Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 I don't think we were quite at the game today like Norwich. Was Karanka's first full season and he did begin with a major overhaul in the last summer window, don't think the same is needed now. Still feel like we could've done better in the league though. I think we need to get rid of: Dean Whitehead, does a good job but I don't rate him Ledesma Fredericks, Bamford and Ken won't return Rhys Williams, if he doesn't get in the first team Mejias/Dimi Bring in: GK - think back to someone like Shay Given when he was here, won/drew games single-handedly. CB - someone to sure up defence, in case of injury/rotation/fitness ST - A 20 goals a season striker replacing Bamford. Can see Kike scoring some more next season having adjusted. Maybe Vossen on permanent. LM - Someone similar to Adomah. Adomah is more scorer than someone who crosses. SUB CAM - Someone capable of making an impact in games, e.g Pritchard Happy with the squad elsewhere. I'm assuming we'll continue with 4231 We need to gain an extra 10 points next season for automatic promotion. Automatic was lost in August when our squad wasn't complete and in the inconsistencies between late Feb early April. I'm sure if we score more and keep our defensive record the same we can win the league (ambitious but that's what I hope for next season). Link to post Share on other sites
Andyboro 73 Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 please dont mention Danny Graham thats all i ask . Funny you should mention him he was sat in front of me at the match for the first half then did a disappearing act, Did not even stand up when the players came out the tunnel.
