    Tell you what, Terry Taylor is going to look like a new player once the season starts 
    He's looked like a new player in the pre-season so far, so def a new signing...

    Could this mean something is happening with a new player? I know the same thing happened a couple of weeks ago

    Personally thought REG looked very decent in the second half of last season. I would probably have him starting alongside Mitchell & Jones at this stage.
    Needs to be balanced though, who plays on the left? That’s why we need Potts (or another leftie) signed as our next CB.

    I really can’t see that being the starting 3. Gillesphey will be a guaranteed starter, unless Potts or another left footer is brought in 

    My starting 3 would be Ramsay, Mitchell, Gillesphey based on pre-season so far. If Ramsay is needed at wing back then REG or Jones would come in

    This is how I see the rest of the summer window:

    IN
    Potts
    Keeper
    Attacking Midfielder

    OUT
    Ness
    REG
    Edun
    Fraser
    Istead
    Maynard-Brewer
    Asiimwe - Loan

    * Just to clarify, this isn't what I would want but what I can see happening.
    It's looking like Potts, Bishop and maybe Hylton will be the only new signings. Can't see a GK coming unless we shift one of the others

    They did similar with Bishop but actually named him and then quickly withdrew it.

    Can see Potts and Bishop signing as well as a new keeper. Then later in the window potentially a loan signing if they’re going to be of real quality.

    Isted, Ness, Edun, and Fraser all to leave. AMB could also go but will likely be the less of the two keepers to go.

    Asiimwe I think will stay, especially if we start to see Ramsay as a potential right centre back that we’ve seen so far this pre season. We might see Zach Mitchell go on loan somewhere but I think he’s well liked so could stay.

    When you look at the squad and its size, even with 4 named players and potentially AMB to leave, it does make it challenging for where a loan player might fit in. But overall, at this stage, we are in a much stronger position than we have been for years.

    Squad:
    New GK, Mannion, (AMB)

    Watson, Asiimwe, Ramsay, A.Mitchell, Jones, REG, Z.Mitchell, Gillesphey, Potts, Edwards, Small

    Taylor, Coventry, Berry, Docherty, Bishop, Anderson

    Godden, Ahadme, Aneke, Leaburn, Kanu, Campbell

    I can still see the above but with Edun staying as a third choice at left back and midfield cover. That way Jones has essentially 3 options in each position, with a couple of oval pegs in round holes

    GK New, Mannion, AMB
    RWB Ramsay, Watson, Asiimwe 
    RCB REG, Z.Mitchell, Ramsay
    CB A.Mitchell, Jones, REG
    LCB Gillesphey, Potts, Edwards 
    LWB Small, Edwards, Edun
    CM Docherty, Taylor, Edun
    CM Coventry, Anderson, Bishop
    AM Berry, Campbell, Anderson
    ST Godden, Kanu, Campbell 
    ST Ahadme, Leaburn, Aneke

    Without Edun in there, midfield and LWB might be a bit light, unless Jones believes Watson on the left or even Potts is a viable option in a crisis

    I’m absolutely positive we get a new keeper in.

    Why are we suddenly saying we're selling REG? He's only not featured due to injury

    Same as a few weeks ago everyone decided we were selling Taylor based on him not playing the back end of last season
    My personal assumption is based on the fact we're now seemingly in the market for a LCB. Let's assume we sign Potts, I still think we'd be looking for a Bradley type figure in the centre. So it would be Gillesphey/Potts on the left, Bradley/Jones for the centre and then the two Mitchells and REG to the right. 

    Just guessing that having 6 senior CB's might be a little bit too much and with Z.Mitchell impressing, REG is the obvious candidate to go, but yeah to be honest it's just guesswork but can see it happening. 

    Take your point about Taylor, but with Taylor's injuries, the theory of giving him a mini pre-season does make sense. Obviously it's entirely possible Jones was continuing to look at Thomas/Hector but his exclusion for the last few games aswell as the above makes a bit of sense to me. 

    Personally not convinced by the defence if we just sign Potts and lose Ness. Not convinced either Jones or REG good enough to be promotion winning regulars, wasn't blown away by Gillesphey and Potts' injuries are also a slight concern.

    Ramsay is surely a wing-back, especially as don't think Asiimwe or Watson are good enough to be regularly starting.

    Exactly .  Lots of assumptions we are better but there were serious question marks about Jones and Gillesphey last season - Mitchell may (haven’t seen him play) be the only upgrade .

    Personally, I think REG is twice the defender Jones is. Jones is very capable at winning headers but limited in most other facets of his game. REG has that Kyle Walker-esque recovery pace and can support moving the ball forward effectively.

    Couple of pre-season games doesn't change his position IMO. He is being played there because we're a little short at CB but have two other RWB's, same as Edwards on the left side. 

    I've commented saying I wouldn't be surprised if REG is offloaded, but if I'm totally wrong then he would be playing instead of Ramsay in pre-season.

    Can't see the squad being that big, what's that 28 players? Don't think there is a concern at LB/LWB, Watson could play there in an emergency or Potts LB in a 4. Small could do a job for a game or two at RWB so don't think there's a chance we keep all 6 of the players capable of FB. I still expect either Asiimwe or Z.Mitchell to go out on loan and Edun to be sold from your list.

    I know he didn't play every game but REG made 26 starts for Rotherham in the last full season he had in League One where they finished second - thought he looked good once Jones came in last year so think he'll have a lot to offer.

    Lloyd Jones had his best game for the club against Portsmouth under NJ and then got injured and wasn't rushed back so feeling confident about him too.

    I would be happy with REG, Jones, Potts, Gillesphey, and the Mitchell Brothers - Ramsey and Edwards can also cover RCB and LCB.

    If Nathan does get in another one of the same quality as Alex Mitchell then we're in a really strong position
