Signings - Part 2


Aussie Rules

if we could get another striker in like tyrone barnett plus kyle walker on loan that would be brilliant then callum guy in centre mid we'd be looking in good shape.

 

How are we? Walker wouldn't play 25 games in a season for starters. Guy would be a very good addition. Barnett wouldn't. Still miles off at the moment imo.

to be honest whilst Barnett has had a shakey couple of seasons and green some time out, they are realistically the type of player you need to bring in. Barnett has shown he is capable of 20+ goals a season at that level and Green has been consistent at that level, the question is whether Brown and the coaching team can bring that out of them. Constantine and Sodje were prime exmaples of players who had lost their way and then went on to do well for the Vale after some work with the team. add a decent CM to the mix and the squad whilst light numbers wise is starting to look more like a top 10 league 2 side.

Have I missed anyone out? Looks to me were short;

 

2x Striker - Need injury cover for Forrester and Turner

2x Midfielders - one please be creative.

1x Left Back / Right Back cover

1x Winger

 

Any less than this and I think we will really struggle.

Realistically how many more signings do we need? Where are we lacking quality / cover?

 

I'd say:

 

- 2 first choice defenders

- 2 first choice midfield

- 1 first choice striker

- 1 first choice winger

 

Yates will sign too, so another 2-3 back up in addition to the above. Realistically we currently have 16 players who will feature, so that would make 25/26 total (not including first years, but possible that one or two of them could play a back up part in games like JPT fixtures).

8-10 more needed for me.

 

A balanced squad should have 2 players for each position then 4-5 youth players on top of that.

 

We still need:

 

2 x RB

1 x LB

1 x CB

3 x wingers

2 x CM

1 x striker

 

Won't happen though.

I'd agree with that. Maybe another centre midfielder as well. For me it's 6/7 first team level players and then a couple more squad players. Green would be a great start though.
