maybe a keeper?
I cannot see that. One of most consistent players last season, barely put a foot wrong. Will not upgrade on him without paying big money.I really like Maroši, but I can’t help but wonder if he’s next in line for an upgrade. Assuming no one leaves, every other area looks pretty strong. Unless a LWB on a permanent deal comes up who is better than Giles.

I would be happy with the squad in that scenario tbh, concerned with wilson as back up. If still had money left, I wouldnt argue with us keeping it for january in case we are in trouble.Where would you strengthen if we got a DM in? Maybe CB, maybe LWB?

Wilson needs to be upgraded.
I know its tough to find a decent keeper who is willing to sit on the bench, but if Marosi ever gets injured we are screwed as Wilson is simply not good enough unfortunately.
I just generally don’t believe in signing back ups. Unless there’s literally no one, or we have a player with a history of missing games, I think we should sign players for the first team (U23 signings apart).
I guess the best thing would be a young keeper.

The story actually seems to say we have approached West Brom about their midfielderHe did say definitely 1 more coming in so is a bit of a story

Bet there’s a few. But, we won’t have heard of them, like most that don’t support Coventry won’t have heard of Wilson.Wilson’s a very odd one, 28 years old and played 62 games. Can’t be many players at all who have played less by that age? I could understand if he was getting a 20k a week from Chelsea to be their third choice but he’s always been a lower league goalkeeper...
Why would you shit yourself for a friendly?Wilson was horrendous today, the second goal he didn’t even try get down to the floor. Mo Eisa did well but Wilson didn’t even try... don’t get me started on the first one! Every time he touched the ball he took one touch too many like he was trying to take people on, I was touching cloth every time he did it

It literally counts for nothing. And isn’t what friendlies are for. Add to that, we DID win. I’m pretty sure a couple of friendly wins over a team that finished 7th doesn’t prove we should’ve won the league either, that was done over the 35/36 games where we actually finished top of the league.I like to win... especially to prove that we were warranted league winners against Peterborough
Friendly or not, we should keep a winners mentality, I don’t like this ‘who cares if we win or not on friendlies’

Personally i would. He had a bad game but then in his other friendlies he had good games.The point I made about all this was Wilsons performance, were you comfortable with how he played today? And would you trust him if Marosi gets injured?

Well, my stream cut out for their goals, so I didn’t see either. But, unfortunately, you’re not going to get a Buffon or a Schmeichel to happily sit on the bench for 90% of the season. He’s better than Burge, from what I’ve seen and I’m fine with that. If Marosi gets an injury that puts him out for a while, I’m sure Robins will deal with the situation then. As it is, it’s the position I’m least thinking about.The point I made about all this was Wilsons performance, were you comfortable with how he played today? And would you trust him if Marosi gets injured?

And with that he’s got two competing for the next young thing hasn’t he?I just generally don’t believe in signing back ups. Unless there’s literally no one, or we have a player with a history of missing games, I think we should sign players for the first team (U23 signings apart).

That quote is from Barry Fry when he was at Birmingham City circa 1990s.I want us to just keep signing players. an 80 man squad would be ideal.
You do realise how expensive goalkeepers are ? There was a piece on Talksport last week following Man United giving Henderson Who has yet to play a game, a 6 year deal at £120k week. De Gear is on £375k a week. Pundit on there said most if not all Premier League keepers are on wages of atleast £80k a week and reserves on £30/40k. Ben Wilson is our reserve until he decides it’s time to move on then hopefully one from the Acadamy is good enough to step up. So unless MR can sign and afford a goalie no to replace Marosi as number one it will be Wilson and fingers crossed Marosi stay fit, keeps his form and doesn’t get sent off too often.The point I made about all this was Wilsons performance, were you comfortable with how he played today? And would you trust him if Marosi gets injured?

In fairness he's paid to do that shit, don't blame the ladReally disappointing from Tom that. Since he came onboard he was slowly rebuilding credibility in the Telegraph, this crap is typical of their output from last few years though.
Almost certainly won't be ready for the first gameWhens Dabo back?
I know he hasn't played in friendlys but he's been back in training for a few weeks now. @better days any idea if he is ok for the first game? Another 2 weeks should see him back surely?
Back in training won’t be rushed but I reckon on the bench by end of SeptemberAlmost certainly won't be ready for the first game
Not sure where he is in his conditioning but after so long out and missing the preseason I suspect it will be a while before we see him
Nixon doing his tweets now. Awaiting update from Sheaf 'still talking'
