UniFox21 Posted 11 September 2020 Posted 11 September 2020 Clearly lacking in squad depth, Brendan getting his reasoning in as he has done at every other club
fazzyfox Posted 11 September 2020 Posted 11 September 2020 Really think Todd Cantwell from Norwich would be a very good fit with our squad but can't necessarily see a starting place week in week out but useful over a long season in which there will no doubt be plenty of opportunities to play and perhaps in a reshaped side if we lose Madison long term (if he leaves one summer). Seems to be comfortable out wide too so has plenty of scope for being involved more often than not. Just hope Everton and West Ham don't hear about him too.... 1
PNM Posted 11 September 2020 Posted 11 September 2020 (edited) Not sure if this has been mentioned but squad numbers are out and 3 has not been taken. Still after a LB? Or Timmy just didn’t want it? Edited 11 September 2020 by PNM

Harry96 Posted 11 September 2020 Posted 11 September 2020 Guedes from Valencia. Reckon he can kickstart his career here. 1
North Leeds Fox Posted 11 September 2020 Posted 11 September 2020 No sarr in the watford squad tonight. Still think he would add something to our front line 3

Harlowfox Posted 11 September 2020 Posted 11 September 2020 With Casper getting on a bit can't for the life of me not understand why we aren't putting a cheeky offer for Martinez. He is premier league proven

I'm actually quite surprised nobody has come in for Cantwell or Buendia yet. Norwich made a lot of new signings so was expecting a few to go especially those two?

He is being forced to play his CDM at CB having sold one for £80million 12 months ago. It’s an unfair position to put him in and if the results don’t come, we(the fans) will jump on him.

It's pretty devious behaviour imo, the transfer window still has a few weeks to run. He should be putting on a united front and not sowing the seeds of a manouvre to shift the blame should the season not start well. 2

I think some of those on the free transfer list will start coming back into focus soon if we can't get key deals over the line. Those sorts of players will provide the squad depth, rather than being key starters Still on there (not saying i'd take these, but they're of the right level): - Mario Gotze - Nat Clyne - Daniel Sturridge - Edison Cavani - Jose Callejon - Pato - Chupo Moting - Lusamba (we've been linked in the past) Lusamba and Chupo have the same agent too. Be interesting, imagine some Prem clubs will start taking short term punts on some of those soon. Gotze - Finished Clyne - Finished Sturridge - Finished Pato - Was finished about 8 years ago Chupo Moting - Come on now All the above are has beens and have disasterous money pit written all over them. What's the point in paying someone like Gotze 100k or something like that to be a squad filler. Cavani of course would be great but don't see you busting the wage structure for him and how would he and Vardy play in the same team. 1

AjcW Posted 11 September 2020 Posted 11 September 2020 Just to clarify. Because apparently “not saying I’d take any of these” wasn’t clear enough.... I was just pointing out who is currently free
