First day back

[Mowgli]

we need a striker and lb

Not sure. Matthews can play left back.

Striker I agree with but depends on fletcher or Graham leaving

I can't see us signing a left back. Both Jones and Matthews can cover there. Also I reckon a striker would need to go before one left.

Nailed everything

Aye it does. Dick likes Fletcher mind you.

should we be getting mega excited about the cm options??

There is good money to spend, I know that.

Fact the club hasn't offered him a new deal is telling imo

 

[ferryhill mackem]

Well done to congerton

Bring in a creative midfielder and a winger on loan and it's a good window. Happy days

and a striker if we can get shot of graham and fletcher

Aye. Needs to prove worth TBH.

I think he'll have to earn one or sign for celtic.

 

[Botchie]

Aye. Needs to prove worth TBH.

In his first season he would graft his bollocks off. I get the impression Advocaat has a hard work ethic. If he shows the same attitude in the first few month of the season he might just end up staying.

 

[Steesafc]

Interested to see who we'll be chasing for centre mid!

 

[Clatts]

I can't see us signing a left back. Both Jones and Matthews can cover there. Also I reckon a striker would need to go before one came in.

Plus, as it stands, we still have Roberge as 8th choice defender who could cover LB or CB in an emergency

Fletcher is a good player. Hopefully Dick can get the best out of him.

 

[East Riding Mackem]

Aye.[/QUOTE]

This is the player that's renewed @dennis longhorn 's faith?

Think it's just the general business at calibre of player we are going for, as well as shipping out poor, deadwood from previous reigns

Any idea which CM's we're after mate? (Sorry if I've already asked or been told similar), just excited

 

[leetsafc]

i think if we have a better supply then we will start to see Fletcher as he was when he first came

well I hope Mathews is ok there because jones is utter shit at lb

Ah, right so I guess it was Downing a couple of weeks ago - personally I was surprised if the plan was to play him central cos that implied a change in formation to 4231.

A creative midfielder is critical like.

 

[deleted user 785]

Most important signing still to come. Really interested to see which central midfielder we go for.

Ditto. Given what we have spent already (and assuming Gyan pays for Kaboul) then I think we'd have money for a quality midfielder (10m plus) and 2 good loans as a min. Not saying we will, I just know the ballpark of money that is there

 

[xmfd]

Heard out about Mousa Dembele? Worked with Lens and Advocaat at AZ Alkmaar and apparently could be leaving Spurs for about 10m?

Agree. The business that is getting done is clinical and impressive. Short, Congerton and Advocaat need to take a lot of credit for that
