Reply | New Kit Annoucment Due ??
at 12:32 25 Apr 2024
Errea has done well for us for far but I don't like this one. The three shades of blue seem pointless to me as they won't be noticed on the pitch. I never like white shoulders. I hate Copybet as our main sponsor.
All that said, I'll need to see the whole kit. |

Heart says 2-1. Head says 1-2. Spleen says 0-0. Liver says 1-1. Lower intestines are still debating the score with the upper intestines.
In short, I'm internally conflicted. |

This summer's ins and outs should reveal quite a lot about the direction Nourry and the board want to take. Will it be the start of a well planned squad rebuild with a long term view in mind, or a short term mini-splurge to please Cifuentes and fans?
Cifuentes will have earned the right to have significant input into shaping the squad regardless of the league we're in the season. However, the time to systematically build a squad with a clear identity and stick to it is long overdue. |

Good to see the crest will be blue.
Is there a hint that the second kit will be pink again? |

I'd be interested in, say, the top three reasons you hate the PL. |

The trouble with playing 3 defensive CMs is it would make it even more difficult for us to score a goal, and I think we'll need to score if we're to get anything out of the game. We showed against Leicester away we can defend very well playing in our usual 4231 formation. |

I think this article has it about right. Yes, I know if we got promoted to the PL it could, if we dealt with it in the right way, transform our financial position (dream on, you might say). However, as this article suggests, it would be like a short marriage to someone very wealthy but also violent, arrogant and abusive.

Would I take the misery of playing in the PL? Yes, for the sake of the club, through gritted teeth and just for a season before returning to the Championship. |

I also hold high hopes for Kolli. I don't know the nature of his injury but given he's been out with it for some time it must be a bad one.
In my view, apart from Kolli, there are two youngsters in the current crop who might make it with us, or at least be retained to be sent out on loan. Alex Aoraha, who sadly broke his leg a while ago, and Steve Bala. Lorent Talla and Matteo Salamon are coming on well, but still on the young side. Alfie Tuck, who made his way into the Dev Squad from the U18s only a few months ago looks a very good prospect but is still making his way.
I know nothing more than anyone else about Willock, but although it would be great if he did stay, I do expect him to leave. |

That's what I'm hoping for and there are rumours of Citeh looking to sell Grealish this summer. |

A fair point but the reverse could be argued that Cifuentes will want to bring in his players. The club will therefore need to raise a transfer fund and must sell a player or two to do that. |

Players with expiring contracts this summer who I think are likely to be offered new contracts: Jimmy Dunne, Elijah Dixon-Bonner, Sinclair Armstrong, Charlie Kelman, Joe Walsh and Murphy Mahoney.
Players with expiring contracts this summer who I think are likely to depart: Asmir Begovic, Osman Kakay, Chris Willock, Jordan Archer, Albert Adomah, Aaron Drewe, Andre Dozzell, Stephen Duke-McKenna, Rafferty Pedder and Joe Gubbins.
Isaac Hayden and Joe Hodge loans come to an end this summer.
We don't really know whether we'll sell any players or not but Ilias Chair, Lyndon Dykes and Jake Clarke-Salter seem to get mentioned a fair bit.
And then there's Taylor Richards...
So it looks to me like we'll be seeing quite a lot of ins and outs in the coming months. |

I've also chosen Cook not only for his excellent performances on the pitch but also for his influence on the whole squad. He'll be captain next season. |

With increased revenue from the EFL, our P&S issues easing and one or two higher earners departing, I'd imagine we'd have a bit of a transfer fund available even if we didn't cash in on any players. |

Two if not three of the four players in the OP could well depart in the summer - Willock for free, Chair and JCS to cash in. I can see up to ten players leaving the squad and we'll need funds to replace many of them. |

I agree with the OP. Andersen isn't perfect but I don't get most of the criticism. He has great ball skills, good football intelligence and has made an important contribution since arriving. I too believe we'll see an even better player in the new season and, given Chair and/or Willock could depart, he's the type of player we need to replace them. |

Yeah of course. Don't forget there will be some U18s who will move up too. For example, Alfie Tuck is already a regular in the Dev team, and a very good prospect too. |
