I’ve changed my tune.. the left sided attacker

I've got a sneaky suspicion that our Dunc is going to exit the building, Muniz will be shipped out and the Burra will be left short.
It feels more like someone is already here and we’re waiting on Watmore and Muniz to go before we announce anything..

Left sided attacker?
The Swiss lad?
Man Utd midfielder?
Flew in yesterday?
Something Big?

Has anyone checked Teesside airport? Flight arrived from Cranwell (East Midlands) at 12:06 today..

Central we play with Archer or Crooks, Left we have McGree, possibly Giles if Bola plays LB and I think Jones or Forss/Archer could do a job as a winger there, but not really what McGree does. Wide right we have Forss/Jones. As a '10' Akpom is there and Crooks or McGree could fill in a bit too. We also have Hoppe in the mix to cover a few of those too.

Archer
Crooks
McGree
Forss
Akpom
Jones
Hoppe

To cover three positions

With maybe Giles to add too, with a tweak if required. Muniz isn't playing so isn't much of a loss and I think Jones or Hoppe could be utilised to do what Watmore has been doing.

But I'm still hopeful of a signing.
Agree that we probably can make it work but if I were Carrick I'd want two dedicated names in each box, and that's where it falls down slightly. That said, appreciate Forss has shifted positions in the last few weeks.

I think the right hand side is sewn up with Forss/Jones.

Striking options appear to be Archer/Crooks/Hoppe (assuming Muniz goes or isn't involved much)

It's competition for Akpom and McGree's roles which seems lacking for me - particularly McGree who is playing a very specialist role at present. Giles could operate there but we'd look very different going forward if he did imo.

I've got a feeling we might end up signing a number 10 - back up for Chuba and McGree (given he effectively plays as a number 10 in the inside left channel currently).

Mason Mount is probably the closest I can think of (in terms of style rather than likelihood before anyone asks!!)

EDIT: Or Aaron Collins at Bristol Rovers, who it appears we're now being linked with?

Steffen/Roberts

Smith/Diksteel
Fry/McNair
Lenihan/Clarke
Giles/Bola

Barlaser/Howson
Hackney/Mowett

Forss/Jones
Akpom/Ramsey
Archer/McGree

Crooks/Muniz

Looks like that’s it.. plenty of options.

Barlaser in for Luongo
Archer in for Watmore
Ramsey in for Hoppe

Tight and tidy
