The fact I didn’t list two of our LBs says it all. Clear out definitely needed so we can improve the overall state of the reserves imo.
Without interest in Lati, Binks, and Simms we have built up a fair bit of deadwood. I say that, if someone could physically put some fire in Simms' belly we'd be sorted up front.
That's not quite how a squad works though. It's not team A and B it's fluid between the two. So we bring in MAB at LB to give MVE a rest and KKH plays right back. Also right goes left wing to give Mason Clarke a break and Simms in for Wright if a rest is needed.
Where I think we lack is out and out match winners and a bit of pace on the wings. I am hoping George from Chelsea comes in as he offers this off either wing and maybe a keeper to come in as Dovin while excellent will need time to get back up to speed and should any rehab not go perfectly we can't really on current options for too much of the season!
Someone will definitely come in for Bidwell on a free, Dasilva actually improved substantially in the second half of the season so I'd be fine him starting the season at LB. If MVE goes, we're back again to having just one RB and asking for troubleThe fact I didn’t list two of our LBs says it all.

I get this point but on the second team, you have KKH and Wright to cover the roles mentioned.
Beauty of a few of our players is the versatility they bring, like KKH could play RB, LB, RW, LW and therefore can cover four play roles

It would have been nice for a season or two to be up in the PL for the young fans to see us there. Greeting from Da Nang in Vietnam where I am for the weekend.You know what I'm glad that Sunderland went up and not us. They're having a real go in the window fair play. Bling would have been scraping around for coppers to sign Jamie Vardy on a free, and would have told Lampard Lati is good enough back up for the Prem.

We aren't going to buy rw,lw and am though cause that really would bloat the squad . EMC can play on both flanks if needed .Let’s be honest Saddles info aside Rapha wasn’t even making the bench last season and BTA isn’t a winger so really if we are playing Wright as a striker we’ve got no back up at RW LW or Rudi at AM really (yeah Torp but he’s our only real 8 and a different profile). Plus nothing at RB as you say if MvE goes as we expect.

Wouldnt mind an attacking midfielder on loan but could we guarantee him game time ?
you can players that can cover all 3We aren't going to buy rw,lw and am though cause that really would bloat the squad . EMC can play on both flanks if needed .

What a great Friday. I will check and hold you to this though.My Friday resolution is to not argue with Parks
In reality getting someone who can cover on the right and AM would be perfect..We aren't going to buy rw,lw and am though cause that really would bloat the squad . EMC can play on both flanks if needed .

I agree he has been , I was just using him as an example where players can play if neededyou can players that can cover all 3
EMC is a far lesser player on the RW
Like I've just said it probably wasnt the best exampleIt’s alright lads when Saka gets tired EMC can play on the right and when EMC gets tired Saka can play on the left #squadflexibility
Push come to show we have both EMC and Wright who can operate well on the left.

Ben Doak had a decent season at Boro last yearI'm pretty keen on Jamie Donley from Spurs who was at Orient last season. Still a bit raw but bags of ability and can play at AM or out on the right.

What do you meanWorked well last season

Think that might be an issue . Clubs will want their players playing and not warming the bench week after weekCertainly wouldn't say no but he's linked with a move away, potentially to the PL.
If we could guarantee game time, someone like Donley would be more realistic I'd imagine.
Well I very much doubt we will sign another LW, so its pointless considering.Both got injured and even when fit we ended up sticking BTA wide left rather than move Wright from ST
