    RB cover: Free agents

    Do you think Harris will dip into the free agent pool to bring in cover we desperately need at right back? Surprisingly there’s a fair few decent players out there.

    That Jazz Richards looks a good bet!

    Thank feck NW has gone or he'd be back on a 5 year deal.

    Funny, but sadly true.

    Not too many on that list.

    Kieron Freeman -to add another welsh international, but hasn't played much at all in the last couple of years, and was unable to displace Chris Gunter from the Welsh team

    Jon Flanagan - Apparently once had a full England cap, which seems remarkable now given their depth at right back. Most recently was a bit part player at Rangers

    Julian Korb - A german I know basically nothing about other than the fact he's played in the champions league.

    Most of the rest are too old.

    So long as we can agree a 1 year contract as we did with some of our other free agents it may work out whatever the age

    Do agree Bagan should be given a crack though

    seems like we're just as in need of a LB at the mo

    Should be given a chance at LB but RB we only have Bacuna as cover which is worrying

    Yeah agree about right back, I was responding to the comment above.

    I'm amazed we haven't brought in a right back.

    Pleased with recruitment but it’s such a glaringly obvious area we needed to add depth and we haven’t. It’s bizarre

    Surprised no ones picked up Janmatt mind, how bad is his injury

    Looks like he's missed a whole year with a knee injury pretty much

    I'd offer Adam Matthews a short term contract with the option to extend if he impresses - granted they were relegated, but he was doing well for Charlton last season when I saw him play.

    That’s a good shout. I thought he was with Charlton though. Personally I think we should have gone for Gunter but we missed out there.

    He's a free agent according to Wikipedia.

    Gunter ended up signing a 2 year deal with an option of a third.
    How much do we think he'll actually play during those 2-3 years?

    In the last 2 seasons he made around 20 appearances each season. I’d wager he will make around 30 for Charlton this season. Plus his ability to cover left back as well. International player on a free transfer.

    Are we only allowed to sign free agents who have already played for us?

    Bagan would probably be the best fit since that is his position ?
    Bagan is a left footed left back as far as I’m aware.

    Could Whyte cover right back maybe ?

    I've thought that previously as well, I think he could be good there.
