    24/25 changes?

    We've already built a squad capable of reaching the play offs next year with 3/4 additions to fill the gap left by departures. However I don't think MR will be happy with that. I think he'll be pushing for players who will take us to the next level - even if that does mean favourites from this...

    24/25 changes?

    I think we'll do more business than people think. 1. CB 2. CM 3. CAM 4. FWD (covers ST and the wings like Wright) are minimum. 5. CM 6. LB 7. CB 8. RB 9. GK I think we'll go for if both Sheaf & Gyok both move this summer (won't necessarily get them all - depends on the right deal presenting...

    Summer transfer/squad plans 2024

    Think we need to expect 1 to go each summer. Will be Sheaf this summer & probably MvE next. Use the money to sign 3 or 4 (and get a couple of frees each year to bulk out the squad) and we'll keep getting better.

    Wembley team last time

    I think last years team would win in a game between the two. However, the squad is in an infinitely better place now moving into next summer.

    Formation Next Season

    If playoffs are mathematically gone with a couple games to spare I would like to see us test a few different tactics in our last games. Eccles/Lati as inverted RB Binks LB 4-3-3 with Torp floating between 8 & 10 4-4-2 with Wright/Simms

    Formation Next Season

    Midfield is key next season. We need to protect the defence more while controlling games better. Even during our amazing run this season it felt like a lot of games were won based on us having superior quality in attack rather than controlling the game and really limiting the opposition...

    Perspective

    No loan signings in Jan did make our task incredibly difficult. However, if we have an extra 1m-2m in the summer window instead I'm OK with us wanting to develop our own. Not sure we would have got promoted with another 2 players anyway - think this squad needs longer to develop these young...

    Perspective

    Predicted we'd finish 8th so happy with this transitional season. The FA Cup run has been a real bonus - albeit probably has harmed our league form. If we start playing before November next season we'll comfortably be in the play offs next year for me. With a bigger, more settled squad this...

    Transfer targets

    Viveash hinted at this a little in his interview - he said Torp is an 8 (not 6 or 10) and said Palmer can also play as an 8. Think Torp would benefit massively from an extra body in the middle and less of a defensive area to cover. Could be a smart move to shift to 4-3-3 next year, especially...

    Transfer targets

    Would very much be in our interests for them to fall short in the play offs if we're keen on a second player. Although if they do come up its a guaranteed 6 points next season.

    Transfer targets

    As a LM to come on and see a game out he's OK there - but nothing more than that. Said it before but LCM would make more sense to me.

    Transfer targets

    Based on what Viveash was saying I think they will try to train Wright for the CF position this summer. Like they did with Gyok.

    Callum O'Hare

    O'Hare's stats - Tackles per 90: 20/21: 2 23/24: 1.1 Times fouled per 90: 20/21: 2.6 23/24: 1.4 Fouls per 90: 20/21: 1.4 23/24: 0.6 Dribbles per 90: 20/21: 2.1 23/24: 0.7 All the stats point to a player who is worried about getting injured again and isn't getting stuck in. Happens a lot...

    Match Thread Southampton - Coventry City Match Thread - Tuesday 9th Apr

    Can see Robins making a few changes - set up similar to Ipswich & Leeds away earlier this season. Will be a meltdown on this thread in circa 6 hours.

    Item Thread for those looking for FA cup tickets

    Also not going to beg or give a bullshit story. Can check my post history if you're worried about where my affiliations lay. I'm looking for one for my mate if anyone can help me out.

    Transfer targets

    They aren't going to loan him to a club where he isn't going to play.

    Transfer targets

    By both offensive & defensively statistics we're close to being a very good team. 6th most goals and 5th least conceded. Problem is the teams chasing automatics are far ahead of us in terms of their goal difference: Goals Scored: Ipswich - 84 Leicester - 77 Leeds - 75 Coventry City - 63 Goals...

    Transfer targets

    CB, CM, AM, RW, ST are a minimum to cover 2 players in each position. Can also see us going for a LB, GK, CB if we can stretch the budget.

    Last 9 + FA Cup Formation

    Think we need to keep it We couldn’t control the game against the 2nd worst form side in the division last week (Watford) in a 5 Back to a 4 and we dominate a decent Prem outfit

    This team must stick together next season

    Brentford lost Watkins and Benrahma and still improved and got promoted. While it would be disappointing for Sheaf to leave we need someone to bankroll us for another season. I trust the recruitment team to find players that will push us on. Unless Gyok goes early then we might not need to...
