And another striker or 2 if we don’t go up.First team only, if we go up we need: GK, CB x 3, RWB, LWB, AM/ST
If not: CB x 2, RWB, plus replacements for Vik/Gus when/if they go.
We lack championship quality let alone prem, we've got players that go as far back as league two. I fear we'd need a similar overhaul as the likes of forest, and even then you don't know how that will play out. Outside of the loans, vik, hamer and sheaf are the only ones I'd class as top champ/lower prem players. If we went up, we'd have likely have one of the worse squads that's ever made it to the prem from the championship.Obviously at the moment there’s two scenarios on the table. Who do you think we should be targeting in the summer for either scenario? If we don’t go up, it’ll be a rebuild. The back line is either old, out of contract or on loan. Vik and Hamer will be gone.
If we go up, I feel we lack the quality of the prem.

What ever division we are in we need to add power and pace. I’ve recently watched a few of the top prem games and that’s the difference, they are all athletic and have pace all over their teams and speed of thought.
As for newbies we need a complete new backline one even two in midfield and a strike partner for Vik, should he move that’s two strikers.
We will have hopefully fit again COH and KP too but still need the above as well.
I don’t think Palmer has been fit since he signed that’s why we got him on the cheap from Bristol hopefully this long lay off will get him 100% fit, we have seen what he can do at full pelt but not for 90 minutes a fully fit KP I’ve got high hopes for.
On song he’s one of the best in the division. I just hope we can get him to a point where he can play the majority of most games.
Hamer is good for us and the way we play, is he the best ?
Based on what? Seems like an incredibly generous claim to me.On song he’s one of the best in the division.

Take all of our loans out of the team. The only players that would be capable for the Premiership are:
Hamer
Sheaf
CoH
Palmer
Vik
We would need 15 new players at least.
If we stay in the Champ. All the loan players will be gone and likely Gus and Vik. Using the money from their sales will add more quality in general across the squad. However, finding the next Gus or Vik in terms of the stage they joined us in their development is not easy.
Whatever happens this summer it will be a big recruitment drive.

Prem survival will doChampions league or happy with Europa next season then?

Its just my opinion, and yes players can improve or be above the league they played in so i will agree on that point. But our depth is the main issue imo, we tried playing a second string with a sprinkle of first teamers and we lost to Wrexham at home, i dont think what i said was completely unfounded.How does a team that has finished in the top half of the Championship in the last two seasons lack Championship quality. Just because a player once played in League 2 it doesn't make them a League 2 player.
Great opportunity but wowIf we go up we need players in every position. Vik, Hamer, Sheaf and possibly O'Hare are the only players I think that could contribute in the Prem. Maybe Wilson for continuity. Loans are leaving and Fadz, Bidwell, Eccles, Kelly, Godden, Palmer etc. just aren't at that level.
If still in the Championship:
GKs - Wilson, New Backup
CBs - Fadz, Rose (new contract), 3x New Signings
RWBs - New Signing, Dabo (1y deal)
LWBs - New Signing, Bidwell
CMs - Hamer, Sheaf, Eccles, New Signing (Kelly could be renewed for 1y)
CAMs - O'Hare, Palmer, Allen
STs - 2/3x New Signing, Godden (Vik leaving)
That's a new backup keeper, 3 centre backs, 2 wingbacks, a centre mid and 2-3 strikers I reckon we need.
If we go up we’ll need a forest style spree. I reckon we’ll have 5 players max with any potential ability to play in the premier leagueFirst team only, if we go up we need: GK, CB x 3, RWB, LWB, AM/ST
If not: CB x 2, RWB, plus replacements for Vik/Gus when/if they go.
Conference league as a bare minimum or get the luxury taxi for RobinsChampions league or happy with Europa next season then?
Dacosta?We have 3 players who could do it. Gyo, Sheaf and if O’hare is incredibly lucky with his rehab. No one else
And Hamer.We have 3 players who could do it. Gyo, Sheaf and if O’hare is incredibly lucky with his rehab. No one else
And Hamer.
