Shane

I might have missed it because his word salad is nauseating but I don’t think he ever mentioned challenging for the title or promotion? Which is the bare minimum for our club at this level. Screams of losers mentality tbh and will be more interested in “playing the right way” than winning.

Massimo Luongo (CDM) Was a big player for Ipswich a couple seasons back. Think he made the most tackles/interceptions in 23/24. We’re going to need a destroyer type of midfielder to compliment Braybrooke, Page, etc.

Hopefully him and Aluko are our two RB options for next season. Choudhury will have to move to midfield if he’s staying.

Pep Lijnders is leaving Man City

Radek Vitek (GK) Bristol City’s player of the year, players player of the year & young player of the year. He’ll definitely have better suitors than us, but worth a try on loan from Man Utd.

Finley Munroe (LB). He hasn’t been given a chance at Boro but was great at Swindon last season, 9 goal contributions in 23 matches for them. He might be available on loan.

Fuchs arguably pulled off one of the best managerial displays in the EFL this season. Newport were rock bottom of League 2 when he took over and looked certain for relegation. They were so incredibly bad & the atmosphere around the club was extremely toxic (sounds a bit like us ). Lost his best player in Braybrooke in January but still managed to get a very limited group of players fighting for the shirt and shown some tactical nous along the way. Gerrimin.

Daniel Armer (CB) - Loan from Man Utd Tyler Fletcher (CDM) - Loan from Man Utd Reigan Heskey (LW) - Loan from Man City Mahamadou Sangare (CF) - Loan from Man City

Wilson-Brown has played left back a few times for Swindon. He will be a good option for us next season. Sign a first team LB and use him as cover for LB/LCB.

build the team around him and braybrooke

When we became obsessed with possession football. Our 15/16 style of play should have been our identity. Yes we needed to change some things slightly like Atletico and Simeone have done over the years, but the core principles of that style should have been drilled into the ethos of the club.

Give it Fuchs. Newport were awful when he took over and they’re now 4 points clear of the relegation zone after losing their best player in Braybrooke mid season. Their fans are saying the team is very organised and fighting for the shirt.

Portsmouth and Oxford might have more fight, passion and desire but we have one thing they don’t. Jordan Ayew

Anyone know if he’s injured tonight? Our other fullbacks shouldn’t be starting ahead of him

Glad Mavididi has been benched, hopefully Reid can give Thomas more protection

GOALLL

we’ve scored

all our new signings have no real pace or athleticism. The team is not setup for the modern game.

wasnt it a classic agent deal? doubt much scouting was involved

id like to see aluko and monga on the right. they linked up really well for the academy

He’s gonna love Prince of Punjab
