I really do believe he has inherited squad players with potential rather than cornerstones to aid building a strong team.
GF, CB, CM, CF all cry out for new blood.
however I think TM will see some hope in players, he believes he can develop.
Burge I think he will stick with but will probably look for someone to push him who has experience.
I think Reda he will look to utilise and maybe Fleck as players he can get more out of.
I also think he will give serious consideration to Barton or Nouble..both have strengths but are also seriously flawed. But I wouldn't be suprised if he got rid of both; but one might survive.
I think he will look to bring in three experienced players to help build the spine who can give us 2 to 3 years of quality.
Maddison will be a player to figure but he won't hang him out to dry as a linch pin...next year is his development season.
I think he will bring in two long term loans to finish the spine.
here is to a good summer TM and a successful season.
Sorry, Hobo, but I have to disagree somewhat.
If we want to be challenging up the other end of the table, then sticking with the likes of Burge, Barton and Nouble just isn't going to cut it.The only one I would even consider keeping there is Fleck.
Burge is still too raw, Barton has had eleventy billion chances and Nouble is good for about 1 game in 7.
I really hope we look much further past these sorts of players in our building process.
As I have said Otis Burge needs back up with a more experienced keeper. Barton and Nouble have serious flaws. I appreciate your "I hope we look past these players" sentiment.
But we are so thin on the ground when it comes to quality. Yes it is a blank canvass but bringing in so many in one go is not easy. Especially in one window and on a limited wages budget. It is not just about bringing in the new they have to be better.....and he will have to improve some of the players we have already got.....it will be a mix of new faces and development.
He needs to get Carl baker back
Well let's see how many premier players TM will sign ? We're in league 1 so we will always get dross players !!! And he didn't want to leave !!!Why?
We only missed him last season as he was much better than anyone that SP replaced him with. But do you really think that TM will sign dross like SP did?

He'll have a very similar budget.
We are in division 3 !!!!!So you now say that we need a Prem player to replace him? :thinking about:
It is now time for us to go forward. And to me this means replacing players not good enough. But why would we bring past players back when there is better out there? Baker is a decent Division 3 player. But Mowbray has contacts and could well do better.

Teams that finished in the top 10 last season had a lower budget to us.
I tend to agree with Otis about the likes of Barton Nouble, etc. we need better and although I appreciated that a high turnover of players is not ideal, TM will never get a better chance to stamp his mark on the squad, and renewing contracts of players who are not consistent enough is just taking up valuable wages (nouble will be one of the highest paid players in the the squad) on squad/back up players for the subs bench. I agree that have to better, but better doesn't necessarily mean raw ability, a promotion charge requires consistency. They'll be plenty of decent players available.
It will be interesting to see what happens at 9am

Turgott? Yes he scored at Peterborough but didn't look great otherwise.
