O’Hade and Tavares are unlikely to be fit.

Bit harsh leaving the captain out of the matchday squad, especially now we can have 9 subs!

Really need some CBs in. Currently O'Hare, Hamer, Allen and Tavares aren't available either.

Wilson
Sheaf Fadz Bidwell
Burroughs Eccles Kelly Dasilva
Palmer
Golden Simms

S: Moore, Howley, Rus, Di Trollio, Batwani (I think thaws everyone training with the first team, may have missed someone)

I am looking forwards to Matty living up to his new nickname! It's that or "Midas".

We already have Sakamoto is a RWB , because he is so attacking his last club converted him to a midfielder.
I think he will play RWB for us.

Watched a few of his highlights - mixed opinion of him in the air (particularly defensively). He takes a decent corner. Despite it saying his preferred foot is his right, it looks like it is clearly his left (takes corners with his left)

Robins described him as an attacking midfielder and he started his career as a no.10.

I'd be very surprised if we were going to play with two 5ft 7in wingbacks.

Agreed but he is versatile enough to play on the left as well, if needed

I think we need more:

CB x 2
RWB x 2
CM x 1
FW x 2

That's 7, I don't see us signing 7 more players, maybe 5 and a couple of those I'd expect to be on loan.

Very pleased with the quality of the new signings - Sakamoto, Simms, Latibeaudiere, and Da Silva have clearly been signed as starters.

Having a fully fit Palmer and O'Hare as we go into the autumn will also be like having 2 class new signings on the pitch compared to the end of last season.

If Hamer leaves (looking more likely and I hope I'm wrong) and Robins is then given let's say £8 million to spend on 2 high quality midfielders - I would trust Robins and the recruitment team to get it right with that cash and evolve the team.

Not interested in just signing numbers - I want to see quality additions and the recruitment so far has been in the right direction with an exciting 3-4 weeks ahead to bring in class additions.

Thomas - Fadz - Bidwell

Latibeaudiere - Hamer - Sheaf - DaSilva

Sakamoto - Palmer

Simms


Add in a RWB so Lats can play CB instead of Bidwell and that's a pretty decent XI (though with the caveat that we don't really know how good Sakamoto is yet).

We are still 6 short of where you would like us to be for Leicester surely?

Still no specialist RWB's 2 short there
Still at least 2 CB short
2 Strikers short

You'd think when we get them we would be about set?

I think desperately for Leicester we would need a RWB and 2 CB. The others arent desperate necessarily.

That's the one. What's the point of having developed Eccles if we're not going to play him.
