It you're looking at improving what is considered the strongest 11 I think LB is pretty much the first place you'd start after the keeper is sorted. I don't think that's a controversial take at all.
I get what you are saying here but it is a balance between squad depth and starting xi depth. Starting xi, yes GK and LB. Squad depth GK, RB, CB, CM, CF, LB. Doyle would be ideal as could cover LB and CB.Agree completely, don’t know why people think that’s ridiculous. If we want promotion then we need the best starting 11 possible, find the weakest position in the team and work from there. GK then LB, ST, CM in whatever order. The practicality of transfers is another discussion but in terms our weakest starting position it’s GK then LB.

I think the LB position is being looked at strongly with a view to long term but with two players in the squad for that role other areas of the squad need bolstering firstYeah I know what you mean, practically it doesn’t make sense to get another LB in but in terms of what we really need in order to be a complete force to be reckoned with, I think we need a better LB. It’s one of those where it’s highly improbable it’ll happen but it’s also not out of reach to be able to do it.
Burroughs I think will be retained as back up RB , Dausch is the exciting one who I think will stay also . The other 3 I can see being loaned out to League one sides till XmasSeeing Burroughs,Obikwu, Daush, Howley and Andrews in Spain you know they are still in thoughts and being evaluated for 1st team squads.
These young players will determine movement going forward. I would not be shocked to see 2 of those names in a lot of game day squad next season. Still time to change move on or loaned out for development we just have to see who plays well enough not to be ignored.
To who?
Have they had a bid accepted then?Birmingham are desperate for a left back

Before my info dried up I was told Howley will probably go on a free..just hasnt developed as expected
Burroughs will be retained as Milans back up and lets be honest he didn't look out of place at all in the 22/23 seasons when he played
Obikwu and Tavares L1 loan Dausch L2 to toughen up
If Howley was going on a free he would have been released at the end of the season with the others who weren't retained.

No I mean as in can go for fuck all of someone's interested, not released
He's probably under contract still.If he isn't in our plans at all why wouldn't he just have been released? Unless it is dependent on us landing targets and he is a temporary emergency option?
Good. As it should be.Intersting that all the rumours/links for us seem to have gone cold - seems like the club is really cracking down on anything getting out. Burnt by Stamenic deal perhaps.
There's clearly loads going on, but literally nothing about!

We know Dovins done I'm just excited to see who the midfielder and striker will be
After that we are set I feel
Exactly how it should be. It’s more interesting anyway when a signing arrives with no prior speculation.Intersting that all the rumours/links for us seem to have gone cold - seems like the club is really cracking down on anything getting out. Burnt by Stamenic deal perhaps.

No CB?We know Dovins done I'm just excited to see who the midfielder and striker will be

We have 4 on our books alreadyNo CB?
Want us to pull another Torp out of our arse. That was a good day.Exactly how it should be. It’s more interesting anyway when a signing arrives with no prior speculation.
I don’t, my arse is still recovering from the last one.Want us to pull another Torp out of our arse. That was a good day.
We will surely have to see off some bids for the likes of Sheaf and the strikers which could change things.We know Dovins done I'm just excited to see who the midfielder and striker will be
After that we are set I feel
We have 4 on our books already
And if 1 or 2 get injured?
Let's have 5 on our books in case 2 or 3 get injured or have 6 in case 3 or 4 get injured .......Would imagine Sheaf would slot in?
Then we still have 2?And if 1 or 2 get injured?
Let's have 5 on our books in case 2 or 3 get injured or have 6 in case 3 or 4 get injured .......
Forget using the allocated wage budget for a decent midfielder and attacker
