kingfox Posted 11 August Posted 11 August If a CB doesn’t come in this week, then it will be seriously annoying. Then another striker on top of Bristric is the only other piece missing atm. Preferably someone who is English based, as you look at the goals charts from recent season’s, it’s mostly littered with players who have been around the block, or young gambles such as Ballard, Wareham, Pepple of last season. I quite like the thought of testing Stockport for Wootton, or you take a young gamble on someone like Daniel Kanu and hope he bangs at this level. 1

Did well at Walsall last season on loan. Defintiely need at least 1 if not 2 CB’s and I also hope that a few more are on the way out as we are still carrying a number of high earners who clearly want and need to be elsewhere. Busy couple of weeks ahead for McCarron.

But then again, if we can’t move on Skipp and Choudhury then it doesn’t make much sense. I would’ve really liked Davis Keillor Dunn too - shame that link went quiet. It's a week till the season starts, Collins being without a club is very telling. He is likely asking for more wages than his ability demands. Also probably not as good as most make out on here. 1

Busy couple of weeks ahead for McCarron. @BlueBus deserves the credit for the Kanu suggestion. With how League 1 has looked in recent seasons, you either go for the tried and tested, or take a punt like Leyton Orient did with Ballard for example and hope they take off. Looking at young Championship strikers, Daniel Kanu or Ryan One(Who we’ve been linked with) would be my top two picks. Knowing us though, we’ll probably end up with Adebayo or Yates. Now Nelson’s gone down, as Russell said last week, they’ll have to make a move in the transfer market. I expect a loan for someone like Malachi Hardy, then if Souttar, Faes and Okoli all leave, then at least 2/3 will need replacing.
SB87_LCFC Posted 12 August Posted 12 August Could be a bridge too far but this kid is only 19, estimated to be valued around £10m

boosmanana Posted 12 August Posted 12 August Assad Al Hamlawi as a bit of a target man alternative to Bristric. Currently playing in the top flight in Romania for Universitatea Craiova and valued at around £2 million. Born in Sweden, 6ft2 and scored goals in Poland before moving to Romania.
teblin Posted 12 August Posted 12 August Not saying we should sign him, but find it interesting Will Smallbone doesn't have a club yet. 1

SB87_LCFC Posted 12 August Posted 12 August (edited) In light of the Okoli story and Souttars imminent departure, I did some digging to have a look around. Admittedly, this is a guy I found on FM26 and he was an absolute monster, so me being me, I had a look at him IRL. Given we need a centre half I would maybe sooner chuck money at him than at John Souttar. May be a hidden gem and not too much in the way of wages or transfer fee. Looks like he can mix it too There is also this fella, watched about a minute and saw more end product than Mavididi. Market value is 1.8m Edited 12 August by SB87_LCFC
JimJams Posted 12 August Posted 12 August Fxxk the idea of signing ball playing centre backs and instead sign some big fxxking DM's and play them at the back as they can presumably kick a ball. There's a box, and there's me, standing outside of it. Thinking.

Vindaloo FOX Posted 12 August Posted 12 August Liam Morrison on loan, got a feeling this could be on the cards. QPR ball playing center back

QPR ball playing center back The kind of signing I wouldn’t mind. Is he great? No. But it’s a decent alignment of age, profile etc. Instead - welcome Callum Chambers

kingfox Posted 12 August Posted 12 August Not that I want him, but it wouldn’t surprise me if George Edmundson’s name crops up if we don’t get John Souttar.

StinckleyFox Posted 12 August Posted 12 August David Okagbue in league 1 last season at Peterborough. Young at 22, don’t think he would cost much. Not exactly exceptional but could potentially be developed.
