Transfer Window is open

Gutted. You're right.
Well, unless we get it right in the January window

 

Good research and work!

 

Yes, in the sense of not bidding for him.
In the unlikely event his parent club accepts a 'silly' offer, then I'm a big fan of his & we should snap their hands off.
Otherwise, I believe we should put the money onto a left footed left back.
For me, Solbauer right back & Mads centre are a top championship combo this next season, but we have the clear exposure on the left.

 

It’s not a left back we need but a left footed centre half

 

I think we would really benefit from an old head up front to come off the bench as plan b, and impart his wisdom

Someone like Glenn Murray

unlikely I know..

 

Ronan Curtis and Johnson clarke-harris

 

why not lets collect them all.

Get George Williams back too

 

Sollbauer Right back?

I'll have a pint of whatever you're drinking.

 

Naby Sarr is available on a free from Charlton - he is a powerful left footed CB

 

Mads is 'ambipedstrous' and not weak with his left peg. I prefer to add a natural left back.

I'm drinking pesticide, but clearly hasn't worked ... grab some and enjoy
Solbauer is a right-sided centre back, OK - you see most of his sliding tackles or shielding the ball out of play on the right hand side.
But the point is, we don't have a natural left back.

Back to the OP and as an example, if we were prepared to spend up to 750k on Ludewig, I'd rather we put that towards £1.5m on Leighton Baines

 

The same Leighton Baines who retired yesterday and for whom £1.5m would pay maybe 5 months of his salary. Maybe.

Sollbauer is a big centre half, not a full back. A full back needs to be quick and agile, while he could do a job there, he's a lot more suited to the centre.

 

Tom and Robbie too

 

I've already said that Jordan Williams is my right back and I agree that Solbauer isn't a right back. You're just being pedantic - get thi pesticide darn thee!
Talking of Baines' retirement is equally pedantic - just an example of an experience, left-footed left back. I could have said £1m on Friend, but for all I know he's injured

 

He might only be able to manage half a season if his legs have gone

 

Didn’t realise we’ve had a second improved bid for that Lyndon Dykes rejected

 

A dead ball specialist, i,ve never seen a team look less threatening than barnsley from free kicks and corners, everything just floated into the box , meat and drinks for centre backs....

 

Somebody to attack em when they do get in as good centre half’s we’ve got attacking is definitely not their forte .

 

This is a must. Oduor seems to be the best from what I saw last season, but if he's not going to be a regular starter then we urgently need somebody. And, on a similar note, if we're going for long throws into the box then Jacob Brown should be in there rather than taking them.

 

I wouldn"t mind trying to get James Bree back from Villa , he always impresses me when I watch him & of course the forgotten man Tony Sibbick might come into the equation , he too could benefit from Solbaur"s influence

 

Well - since you’ve asked I’ll tell thi.
Present Squad.
Woodrow - is likely to go - so a replacement.
Mowatt - hopefully will go - so a replacement.
A quality good season long loan signing from the Premeir would be good here as this role is pivotal.
Brown - redeployed in the wing back position he is best at.
So a replacement quick striker/winger needed here.

Additions to the Squad.
I think we could allow Ritzmaier and Bahre to leave that will allow openings for another midfielder to join.
Other than that we are desperate need of a target man.

So all in all - depending on how many leaves - if we get 4 or 5 new players in then it will inject more belief and quality in to the squad.
And as it happens - that’s the number that Dane Murphy has mentioned.
