More seriously, the BBC has just put up a post talking about Zaroury and Benson at Burnley, neither is playing much this year. Surely that’s the type of player we could be looking to bring in on loan?
Hearing that Robins is pushing hard for a winger. They’ve identified a target, £2.5m + add ons bid is on the table.
The player in question is a current international with 5 goals & 17 assists already this season and looks ready for a step up to Championship level.
Seems fairly obvious to me that if we don’t bring in a winger there’ll be games where fatigue and injuries cost us points.
The squad is built to play 5-3-2, but we’re currently finding success with 4-3-3 so it needs to be tweaked.
Binks in for Kitching
Lati in for MVE
Dasilva in for Bidwell
Wilson in for Collins
Palmer in for O'Hare
Binks/Lati in for Thomas
They are all reasonable backups. There really isn't a reasonable backup option for Saka.
So of our playoff final starting 11…
6 have left the club (Gyok, Hamer, BNC, McNally, Doyle & now Fadz)
3 are no longer starters (Wilson, Kelly, Allen)
Only 2 players remain (Sheaf, Bidwell).
Quite impressive.
