Next Seasons Confirmed Squad/Transfer Rumours (4 Viewers)

[cc84cov]

We definitely need a CAM if we’re going to play the same system as last season.

Bright will play there mate

Hope we’re looking at a striker

Must be a back up right back...

Young midfielder is interesting thought we would go for experiences considering we have Westbrooke Bayliss and Shipley in there already ..

Winger will be the Thomas replacement and I expect will be the last winger we get... Will also only be a couple players left after that I assume! A striker and maybe a CAM?

Assume midfielder could be liam kinsella from walsall. He is already a city legend having scored a winner at Sunderland last season.

Nick blackman from Derby is latest rumour

Where has that come from?

The twittersphere

The twittersphere

You can probably discount it then. The original tweet is from a ‘former scout’, tells you all you need to know really. Don’t think we could afford his wages anyway.

 

[ccfc1234]

I am waiting for Wilson to be sold then we can maybe spend some strategic money on proven ability players under 25, who will have a good sell on value

 

[SkyBlueCRJ]

I'd be fairly surprised if we brought Blackman in as he doesn't fit MR's ethos at all. Plus, his injury record over the course of his career is sketchy to say the least.

 

[SkyBlueDom26]

No names at this moment but a defender, another winger and a young midfielder could be here early next week. All I know.

Hopefully we get an attacking mid and ST in

And according to wikipedia he can play full back aswell. Which would be in keeping with the recruitment guy saying we may get someone who can step across to right back as opposed to signing another out and out right back.

Makes sense. Not a lot of point in bringing in two out and out RB's when realistically Dabo is set to be first choice. You'll just end up with another Grimmer situation where the player is frustrated - plus it's a waste of funds. I'm guessing we'll probably look to bring in a development player in that position. I suppose that's based on what the club do with Hickman though.

 

[SkyBlueDom26]

Is Bayliss leaving today then? According to that twat in ibiza he's set to be on 10 bags a week (10K)

 

[SkyBlueCRJ]

I think we've been linked with him in the past but Macaulay Bonne is set to move to Charlton after his release clause was met. Apparently it was only £200K. Amazed we didn't put in a bid last summer.

Is this guy creditable ?

 

[Cavan O'Doherty]

Is this guy creditable ?

Considering we’ve officially signed him I’d think so.

 

[cc84cov]

BBC reporting 3 year contract signed

Surely not!

 

[Cavan O'Doherty]

Is this guy actually in the know? Isn’t it the same one who apparently knows about the kits?

Just reading on villa fans forum they were surprised they didn’t give him another year seem to speak positively of his time there.

 

[Liquid Gold]

Yep, already proven to be a bullshitter

 

[SkyBlueCRJ]

Rubbish. Whelan is off to either Blackburn or Forest according to reports.

 

[SkyBlueDom26]

Anyone notice how all the new players are saying were going for auto promotion! Seems as if Robins is really going for it this year!

 

[Winny the Bish]

Heard a whisper that we're in for George Maris, the Cambridge midfielder who's out of contract.

Any good?

 

[superskyblue]

Any good?

One of my colleagues is a Cambridge fan. Rates Maris but says Jevani Brown is their star man.

 

[Winny the Bish]

Any good?

10 goals, 5 assists in 17/18 as a Winger/CAM
5 goals, 5 assists in 18/19 as a deeper CM

Also linked with Ipswich last month.

 

[larry_david]

Maris is decent but failed a medical for Rotherham last year.

Played 44 games last season, so could be worth signing if any good.

 

[larry_david]

Yeah I'd take him tbh. Young attacking midfielder with a reputation for goals.

Would be interesting to see where we'd put him: next to Kelly or further forward where Bright was.

 

[SkyBlueDom26]

Its come from the cov bible page, dont think they have got one rumour right
