New Winger Needed?

[foxfanazer]

Zaha, Redmond, McManaman & Sako

We need to look further a field, e.g Wissam Ben Yedder, Mohamed Elyounoussi or an ambitious swoop for the next Eden Hazard.

I can't see Pearson signing another winger until January when Mahrez will be off on international duty, assuming Knockaert and Albrighton aren't long term injuries. Schlupp is very capable of filling in the void left by these two for a couple of weeks.

No he's not

No he's not

For two weeks I think he will be fine. I could understand your point if they were both out for 6 months in which case I would say we need another winger, I actually think Albrighton will start along with Mahrez against Everton, if Albrighton is still injured I can't think of anyone else in the squad apart from Schlupp who could come in and do a job on the wing, Vardy (if fit) perhaps?

Tbh we Deffo need wingers now the Injury's have started mounting before life back in the prem, loans would prob's be best as cover, I'm getting slightly concerned with the lack of movement of transfer dealings, I thought we was going to have some great signings turn up we have a very small squad for the prem, I'm just hoping that with the start of the season and the teams we are up against we will have a sufficient squad to do the business, why we haven't asked for zaha or Townsend, maybe even janazai ( if not in utds or spurs plans ) on loan is beyond me, why we haven't required the services of a new left back and central defender is baffling me also, I always say I trust NP but when we sell wood on the cheap without loaning him out first is utter crazy, I understand we are not a massive club ( YET ) but we are more than capable of getting the transfer targets a lot of people have put on this forum, however lets look forward to this new season back in the prem, I really hope the hard work we have put back in over the past 5 years doesn't go to waste and we break sheep shaggers record :-/

Andros Townsend and Januzai will be in regular first team action this season

You do know that real life is different to CM?

Knockaert on the right wing and Mahrez switching to the left. He's a natural left footer anyway.

Will Knockaert be fit for Everton? I hope so.

[Clever Fox]

Yes I think both him and Vardy will be ok. Not so sure about Albrighton as it's a groin problem. They can take a couple of Weeks to recover from.

[MHC]

Potentially great news. I think Knockaert is going to burst onto the scene and surprise a lot of people this season.

Bourke always seemed to play well against us for Brum. Or swap Wood for McManaman with Wigan. Or Wood for Sako with Wolves.

 

Burke has joined Florist. I like Sako or possibly Mackie.
