sylofox Posted 22 May 2017 Share Posted 22 May 2017 Will we miss out on as we have no manager. I think a couple Gibson possibly being one. This really needs to be sorted asap. After all would any of you sign for a club not having a clue who the manager is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Innovindil Posted 22 May 2017 Share Posted 22 May 2017 It's being discussed this week for crying out loud. Would you rather they rush such an important decision? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitchandro Posted 22 May 2017 Share Posted 22 May 2017 If they're not giving it to Shakey I don hope they've already decided who they're going for. They've had months to think about and discuss this. There's no reason the new manager shouldn't be in place in the first week of June. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't be ridiculous we'll spend a bit of money on some already identified players then bring in a manager around mid august who may or may not want them.

Only manager whom we might want and could take longer than a few weeks to sort out is Wagner or Jaap Stam. Personally, if we aren't giving it Shakespeare I think it'll go to either Mancini or Schmidt (hopefully) and as both are out of work, they'll be ready if interested.

foxy boxing Posted 22 May 2017 Share Posted 22 May 2017 the targets will no doubt be the same whether a new manager comes in or not!. the club scouts will have identified targets and it will be up to the managerial department whether we follow up on them or not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or is from a league that our scouting network hasnt really tapped into ( and i seriously hope we dont go down that road...) then there is every chance they will have their own people in mind..

CockneyFox Posted 22 May 2017 Share Posted 22 May 2017 The transfer window doesn't open until 1st July so I doubt Gibson (or anyone else) will be agreeing to join anyone just yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trav Le Bleu Posted 22 May 2017 Share Posted 22 May 2017 I guess the number of players leaving will have a bearing on the number of players arriving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluearmyfox28 Posted 22 May 2017 Share Posted 22 May 2017 Right back 2x centre backs 1x centre mid 1x attacking mid 1x striker 6 in total.... that's if we keep hold of our key players too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chico1958 Posted 24 May 2017 Share Posted 24 May 2017 GK RB 2 x CB 1 x Striker James back, Mendy back, should cover the midfield and I'm hoping for Ake from Chelsea and Jansson and Taylor from Leeds are among the players we are looking at................ So it's a 5 from me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always thought everyone knew that Drinky has 1 bad season, then a great one, followed by a bad season and then another good one. He'll be great again next year.

But Ake two good seasons with Bornemouth and he's not good enough for us ??? Plus Conte called him back As for Mendy and James, thought James was outstanding untill he was injured and Mendy didn't really have a season Drinkwater and Wilf will be starters but as back up I don't see anything wrong with the gamble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
