Got Eccles too.

Frankly, we've got more pressing issues than CM so if it is an issue I can only see MR using a loan to cover. Unless he can offload Shipley and Allen to bring one more in.

We’ve been linked to Walsh and James and our good friend @better days has confirmed we looked at these two players. Therefore, we’re definitely looking to strengthen that area but, we haven’t signed anyone in that position, yet. It’s area of the pitch we absolutely need more experience in.

Waghorn and Moore are two signings that suggest Robins is keen on adding experience to a young team.

With that in mind, I’d be surprised if we haven’t signed a CM before the transfer window shuts.

Sounds like Viktor and Waghorn are causing them problems

No that's why were getting Maatsen, hes good enough for back up.

But what are the chances Maatsen is another McCallum? He wasn’t a standout player by any means at Charlton in L1, good but not someone you’d rave about.

They’ve both been slightly behind him. The sort of balls that would have been “impossible to get to” with a certain unnamed french striker up front.

I don’t know our budget and who we can get for what price. One of the wingbacks would be Maatsen on loan and the other a free transfer if possible.

We have 3, maybe 4 (max), signings left and you’d spend 2 of those on LWBs? Don’t quit your day job.

Maybe that the problem. They've been used to crossing to Max and they know he only scores worldy overhead kicks and misses tap-ins so have got used to aiming crosses accordingly.

Is that that exactly what Robins is supposed to be after?

Surely you understand that there is an element of risk/scouting that goes into picking footballers? You cant sign 10 LBs and hope one is "another McCallum"

I have a feeling Viktor is going to be the main man for us up front this season, even if he is a bit of a loose cannon. Mr Unpredictable !

Waghorn and Gyokeres both have great strikers movement. Always looking for space and shaping for the ball behind the defence.

Reid getting forward really well and has a good cross on him.

Good to see Howley get another run out. Could he be the surprise break through this season?

2-0 Cheltenham. Shot straight at Moore and he spilled it straight to their striker.

Christian Walton please.

Similar. Good presence and coming for the ball. Good long kick. Lots of mistakes in him.

Never said that, i just think we should have some proven championship players in the mix as well. The scouting that’s done is based on talent and ability, not league adaptability per say, we’ve seen good players jump leagues after a stellar season and look like a completely different player, i’m just a bit worried, sorry if i’m making this out to be bigger than it is.

Marosi was better than Wilson as well, yet we ended up giving him a new contract.
