Based on the season so far, I think we need a CB, wingback cover and another attacking player.
We are heavily relying on players who have never played Championship level before, and whilst defensively, I think we have been spot on so far, we are as Jones says one injury away from distaster at the back.
going forward an experienced championship goal getter would be welcomed in my opinion
To be fair going into tonight's game, the question of "Who would replace Alex Mitchell" in the back three given the Stevenage line up was the one we were all probably asking the most, as the rest of the eleven (apart from Rylah) pretty much picked itself from the First Round.
We all suspected it may have been Burke, given he's back in training, and his absence is a problem.
Feels like it might now be Z.Mitchell out on loan and then another centre back coming in, plus signing a further wing back option (hopefully versatile enough to play both sides)
I think the problem with the Alex Mitchell move is that he wants to play week in week out and isn't someone that's content to be a sub. I totally get loaning him out from that perspective and maybe Burke is now close enough to fitness that NJ was comfortable with sanctioning Alex's loan last week.
But I think tonight has shown we need a fit Burke and probably another Championship experienced option in there.
Yeah I thought Mitchell played v Stevenage. However on the loan thread someone said he played for Plymouth this evening?
Very odd... You're right Alex Mitchell has played for Plymouth against Swansea, and he definitely played for us against Stevenage... Am very surprised he's not cup tied, unless its no longer a thing.

Or Plymouth have a fine incoming
Would it be a fine, or would you get thrown out of the competition for fielding an ineligible player?

I dont know how you add to centre back. KR, LJ and AB all deservedly first choice, so you need someone willing to not start every game but better than Z Mitchell. Another player in the Burke mold perhaps. Questionable fitness but championship proven?
Fukuda and a hard as nails proven championship centre back please. Tonight also showed the flaw in sending Asiimwe out on loan before filling that particular gap

If we hadn’t sent him out then he wouldn’t have been able to hit the ground running like he has (also could have missed out completely on a league 1 move which is what he needed). It works both ways

Maybe there is truth in the Norwich (?) CB linked in a random tweet the other day?

Then cover for Apter.

A Mitchell played well against Stevenage and we've weakened ourselves a bit!

6.4 / 6.4.1 oddly seems to make him eligible.
can bring the ball out well at times but that isnt enough
lightweight and lacks physicality
need alot better as backup!
