They didn’t have Kanga!Originally Posted by Rjk
If we don't sign some pace, we're going to have a very boring season. I genuinely think 2 quick wingers that aren't useless, we've got a more rounded side than last year. I think I'd want a keeper, a centre half, a centre mid and 2 wingers if we were going to go up.
Weaker squad obviously some good players have gone and not YET replaced.
It should still be good enough though with five os six in, some leaders, a keeper and some top acadamy stars from Man City Leicester etc.
Last years squad should prove miles better than it showed last year if BBM is better than Riza. It's hard for him not to be but it just depends if he's really good average or poor, as Riza was shocking.
It's almost imposible to judge yet without seeing BBM's ideas in action and the final squad. If we don't get top six BBM has failed massively, so I'll show some faith in him and say top six.
I'd be surprised if we bring in 6 more players - I'm expecting half that
Im not sure we need a new GK, Jak is a decent keeper imho
though I thought he was out of contract this summer, have I missed him signing back on for us ?? ??
You could be right, he may use more from the acadamy but i'm also expecting more players to leave yet, so they may need to be replaced?
Will Robinson and NG still be here, Chambers?
He signed an extension back in January around the same time as Robinson and O'Dowda.
If any of the first team subsequently leave I'd expect a signing to replace them.
The only signing I think we'd make now is a leader who can play centre back or centre midfield.
Any other squad gaps would be filled by returning loanees and academy graduates.
Def vneed a new keeper, either as backup to Jak or someone good enough to push Jak down to backup.
We're going to sign more than 3 players, if we don't, pitchforks at the ready
I agree - those are the key positions.
Not sure I like the sound of this, but in BBM we trust?

"The new head coach is believed to favour a different approach in terms of player profiles and squad structure, prompting the club to pivot from the strategy previously being pursued by the recruitment team."
Bearing in mind the opinion most of us have on the recruitment team it's probably no bad thing.
As long as it doesn't mean we're just sticking with the players we've got left.
Neither of those moves are hugely surprising though
Surely you needed to have plans and a strategy in order to pivot away from them.
Reindorf needs a good loan. Bit concerning how is Rovers loan went.
Simic I'd like to see more of, not sure how much of that one is up to BBM.
The surname of five thousand of those Zulus was Kanga
We’ve lost Godfrey, Jones, Pike, Fraser
Please can someone explain to me why people are saying we have a stronger squad than last season? Are they genuinely of the belief that the returning loanees are going to transform the club?
BBM is already been seen and talked of as the next Messiah, but please whilst optimism is to be applauded some of the comments about our prospects for next season should be taken with a huge pinch of salt.
League One is full of hard gnarled pro's - thankfully some of our highly paid fancy dan's have been shown the door.
WE NEED FIVE OR SIX PLAYERS from the custodian of the net to the outside left.
Good, the pair of them have gone backwards or weren't particularly good in the first place. I like this approach, if things aren't working then try something else, do it quickly, instead of us having to watch players season after season who aren't improving or offering anything.
Watched another of those podcast predictions this afternoon - they had us finishing 16th with the reason for this being described in two words, “Vincent Tan”. I know predictions are not worth anything this early in the build up to a season, but one thing they do is give you an idea of what other teams are doing and Huddersfield are being compared to Birmingham last year by some League One podcasters - us on the other hand, are being described as things like a ‘“shitshow”.
It's because last seasons squad was hopeless and maybe a few young players and returning loans are better than what we had.
As it stands I think the podcast prediction of 16th mentioned is probably fair.
That’s the bit that took my eye.
The Transfer Committee Rules, OK?
