    Worth people remembering that of the limited number of loans Jones has got in over the years, he's been happy for it to be their first choice goalkeeper. In 2016 he loaned in 5 players and 3 of them were keepers including Christian Walton. Those 3 played all 46 of Luton's league games that season. He did the same in 21/22 getting Jed Steer, Ingram and Palmer in to cover there in place of James Shea. The next season Ethan Horvath was loaned in to be their number 1. He seems quite happy to switch round his keepers, which would explain why we got Mannion and still want another, and he obviously isn't bothered about the keeper being temporary. Also it seemed like he would rather sign almost anyone on this earth than play Harry Isted so he must really hate AMB.

    I'm fine with it to be honest, we've had some great EFL loan keepers in Amos, Steer and Rudd. If there's better standard keepers to loan than buy at this point then let's do that.
    Playing 3 keepers ought to hopefully address our clean sheet issue ;).
    Probably worth a try at this point

    Potts will be a good signing, and a player to get us out of this division

    I would take Potts just to get his brother Freddie to sign on loan for a season, looks one hell of a player

    Potts, a GK & a CAM

    move on Edun, Fraser, Isted, AMB, Ness 

    brilliant window

    Jones: 'Today was another step up' | Charlton Athletic Football Club (charltonafc.com)

    Sounds like we'll sign Potts if he can prove his fitness.

    “We’re looking for a left-sided centre-half,” said Jones. “Dan Potts has done fantastically well for me. He’s had a number of promotions, played in the Premier League, so the pedigree is there. It’s just about making sure we can get enough of what we need out of him. It’s not a trial, he’s just training with us. He’s having a look at us, we’re having a look at him, but if Dan’s fit and ready to go, then he’s a wonderful acquisition.”

    I wonder why it took us so long to get Potts in on trial? Higher priority targets gone elsewhere or recovering from an injury?

    Most likely Jones wanted to look at our players there first, he's tried Edwards there and Gillesphey, probably wanted to see what Z.Mitchell can contribute and Ramsay at RCB and decided he needs someone there on the left, and Potts has probably been in conversation before

    Where’s our REG gone? I think he is a cultured CB.

    He's got a slight niggle at the moment as well

    Why have a slight niggle when you could have a full scale argument for the same price...🤪

    Fraser linked with a loan to Dundee
    Funnily enough I suggested Fraser to Dundee's General Manager a month ago and he didn't reply to me.  Maybe he actually did take note after all

    Concern with Potts is the injuries, had a couple of bad ones last couple of years. Not particularly old though, certainly worth a look

    Would still like an additonal striker, we're playing 2 up top, you can't rely on Chuks and Leaburn will not be match-fit for some months. 
    Campbell has been tried in that position. Unless we change systems back to 3 up front, I imagine that if he plays it'll be as a central striker who drifts wide, rather than a pure winger.
    That’s why we will give Hylton short term contract .. Leaburn due back in September .. Aneke will be used as impact sub he never looks the same player when he starts .. 
    Didn't look too shabby today when he started... and a goal of the season contender before the season has even started...so put that in yer pipe and smoke it!!
    Apparently, according to the commentary team, Chuk's has been given a different fitness regime this time round. I think the idea is to start him as much as possible in these friendlies and see if how his body copes. I'm with you on this one eastterrace, I thought Chuks gave the Palace back line a few problems, early days but fingers crossed that Chuks can start games and give us more options.

    So Jones is just signing ex Luton players.

    Should have got Klopp as manager if that was going to be our strategy 🙂


    Mitchell, Edward’s, Ahadme, Docherty, godden all never played for Luton or Nathan jones so you’re wrong

    Nothing wrong with that Berry , Potts and Hylton signing and they help the manager get his points across ..

    I'd be happy with Potts with his experience and he is a leader

    As long as the medicals are all clear with Potts I'm more than happy with him as a signing. Another player that knows what it takes to get promotion. 

    Love the Freddie Potts suggestion further up the thread too.

    Interesting that he was Jones captain, wonder if he comes in he’d be captain here as at the moment it looks like Docherty is gonna get it .

    Docherty had the armband today when he came on, but A.Mitchell, Berry and L.Jones have all also had it this pre-season. Feels like it’s being shared around so Jones is having a look a different people in the role before selecting a captain and vice

    Docherty had it vs Goztepe , Millwall and today when he came I’d say he’s favourite at the moment.

    In all honesty I hope it's a bit academic who ends up with the actual armband. Docherty, Godden, Mitchell, maybe Potts and the hypothetical GK we still seem to be chasing, we'd be looking at leadership all across the pitch and that's something we have lacked for a while - Dobson was brilliant at leading by example but wasn't the type to be shouting instructions at other players.

    Mitchell looks very much like a captain to me. Speaks well too 
    At 22 I would be surprised if he gets it.
