Areas that need strengthing

Recommended Posts

Just wondered if we do get promoted in May where we would need to add that bit more quality? And who realistically do we think we could sign?

Of course depending on who gets relegated we could try and get some players from their to stay up

Probably centre midfield i think we maybe needing some experience in there, we've got Hammond yeah but I have to admit I'm not convinced by him. I think we'd be need a Kevin Nolan/Scott Parker type player.

Think we'd need a left winger as well. Dyer is very one-dimensional. His speed lets him get away with it in the championship, but I think in the Prem the defenders would neutralise him. Everyone knows he's always going to kick it with his left foot.

It's a pretty accepted and proven opinion that if you want to stay up you need to strengthen in every position.

LB, LW, RB, CM, ST.

 

One quality player in each of those positions and we'd do alright.

 

LB - Konchesky needs replacing. He's good enough for now, but not in the prem.

LW - Dyer is doing fantastically, but I he's not clinical enough, and his pace won't be enough if we go up.

RB - At the minute we have De Laet and no-one else, really. Wasyl isn't any good at RB and Moore is better at CB, in my opinion.

CM - Needs a bit more steel in the middle alongside James/DD/King, else we'd just get outplayed by most teams. They're good, but we'd need something more

ST - Pretty obvious we'd need someone else, really. Nugent/Vardy/Wood is a good trio to have, but a proven prem striker would be nice. If we can keep Philips in a coaching role I think those 3 are good enough to stay, so only 1 more top-quality striker would be required.

 

 

We'd also need a back-up LB and CB, as well as another keeper. Schmeichel might stay, but we'd need a better back-up option than Logan, that's for sure.

 

Of course we *could* strengthen everywhere on the pitch, but this is what I think we'd need to stay up and finish about 14th-ish.

What do you mean 'if'?

 

Obviously we'll sign players that we can afford, who are available and who want to come here. None of which we know at this point.

Sure the owners will give Nigel plenty will be interesting to see who he wil have his sights on. No doubt bring in a much better class of player we have never heard of. Not just the fees but also the wages they demand, also always have a problem when you sign players who demand release clauses if you get relegated, for me would tell them perform and you do not go down.
