2023/24 Wednesday transfer thread...


Recommended Posts

Xisco certainly has a type at the back doesn’t he…both new cbs look powerful and like to drive forward. Maybe the odd error. I think Ihiekwe will be important to keep a bit of calmness at the back.

Much happier at the sound of the lad from Monaco being a longer term thing as he’s got the attributes but sounds like he needs a home now to get the best from him.

I wonder if the new gaffer would have signed James? He seems to prefer big unit, which I don’t think RJ is.

I could see Famewo being his preference over RJ.

Interesting to see how this goes.

Think current coach is far more likely to change team/tactica around so places for everyone and James is only pure LB we have

Agreed. We certainly needed pace and a bit of intensity to our game which was evident and we are adding that. But they can’t just have that…if that makes sense? Helan, Zayatte, Brown, FDB all great physically and fast but really frustrating also.

Given Xisco seems to favour 4 at the back and James is the only left back on our books, I see him playing more there. I guess Brennan could go out on loan, but he seems a reasonable 6th choice?!

Famewo out there too on the left is a distinct possibility.

Thinking of the starting line ups based on the incoming players and can definitely see a reduced role for Bannan. 

I often think that is the bigger test, can you assimilate the new players with the existing squad without one or two noses being put out of joint 

I think the subtle difference here is that the existing squad were pretty aware that numbers need to come in. Be different if we had 22 already and 5 coming in 

Bannan will be an interesting one, he has been the alpha player for several years, guaranteed a start if fit and in the main has been the key player for a number of seasons. 

Work one of 2 ways - can't cope with not being said alpha player or the other way, he feels less responsible for carrying the load.
