    Apart from that clip. Does anyone have a real idea what Lavelles actually like ? Is he coming in as first choice or backup for Inniss and Famewo ? 
  • Presume this "Papa Johns" is the Left-Back we need?

    Puts in a meaty challenge 
  • Davison scores in the Pizza Trophy. No striker needed now.
    Did Davison slice his shot though? We might still get stuffed.
  • No talk of a left back.  Doesn't look like we're going to get one, which I find odd.

    Signing another centre back instead of a left back doesn't make any sense to me

    Hopefully real competition for

    No need for any back up wingers now CBT!!! 
    Seven players at the club across the three forward positions... Stockley, Kirk, DJ, Washington, Lee, Davison, Blackett-Taylor
    Isn't that 4 positions we need to fill, if we play 442 or 4411?
  • So we are aiming for 2 maybe 3 more, but taylor is 100% not one of them, never going to happen

    Tbf I think he'll be a decent option to have, but I still think we need another striker, especially if Schwartz isn't around. The issue is we play a very specific way with Stockley so really we need a backup to him, but I'd actually like us to sign a striker with a lot of pace to stretch teams instead
    Davison should be third choice and nothing more. Would much rather he was out on loan.
    He's 4th choice

    Stockley
    Washington
    Lee
    Davison
    Lee is not an out and out striker - attacking midfielder more like.

    We need another before 11pm IMO 
    The Crawley goalkeeper might disagree with that

    Cawley mentioned we’re looking a left sided defender. Must be getting a loan player in.

    Emmanuel Longelo from West Ham on loan got mentioned this morning

    You could make the argument for one more if we wanted to be very attacking with two out and out wingers alongside two up front.

    If we were to play a 4-4-2, more often than not I'd expect us to have a wide midfielder tucked in on one side (Clare?)
  • We have not signed any under 23 players from leagues above which is a bit of a surprise.

    Can’t see but is JJ in charge tonight? 
    Looks like it, can't see Nigel there
    He's in the director's box, presumably to take phone calls
  • Mad that we haven't signed a LB on loan. Would have thought you could have asked any Premier League club for an 18 year old and it would be better than Gunter attempting it on his right foot. 
  • Really dont get why we are so desperate for a CB we were outbid for Kerr now going for Lavelle again with Inniss, Famewo, Deji looking good and Pearce as backup centre back is not a priority unless there is an issue with Inniss and his fitness that we dont know about? 
  • Bar Kirk, there wasn’t talk of much of anything this summer before we made all our signings. 3 hours to go, anything can change

    I can still see an LB being signed on loan. Perhaps we are waiting for other perms to be done before we know what wage budget is left and can be offered as a % to parent clubs.
  • Left back from Forest...... Jenkison?  
  • Inniss can barely complete one set of 90 minutes, let alone 46 of them across several months. I would honestly expect Lavelle to come in and be first choice. Inniss can't last but would be a hell of a set piece weapon off the bench.

    i would rather the better player be first choice, personally.

    Thing is that we almost certainly WILL need a CB before very long given that Inniss is apparently made out of fine china and papier mache. I'm fairly sure this is as well as a LB not instead of.

    As I keep being told, you don't have to sign the players in order of need, but sign them when they become available.

    I have it on good authority we will be signing a new left back in Aug 2023.
  • Fully expect us to sign a couple of freebies after the window shuts too. I imagine lots of players are going to be announced as released over the next few days. But think we will still sign 2 more loans tonight

    Inniss is made of glass, we can’t rely on him for the entire season. Plus, whilst Deji is a great prospect, we can’t just throw him into the deep end if Inniss breaks down long term.

    No because hes a right back. Already got one of those playing there.
