See.. that’s all you have to do.
Bit of evidence based speculation.. the clock is ticking and we still haven’t signed anyone. It’s very likely that we will sign someone sooner.. or later.
Whispers on the grapevine that several deals are quite advanced.. ITK or evidence based speculation?
We have lost/sold Smith, Dijksteel, Clarke, Howson, Latte Lath.. last season we had Travers, Giles, Doak, Illing Junior, Iheanacho all on loan.. apparently none to return. Hackney and RVDB have been lined with moves away.. even speculation regarding Azaz, Ayling, Glover & Barlaser
Players left on loan last season include Engel, Silvera, Gilbert & Hamilton
Travers
Smith/Ayling
Dijksteel
RVDB
Clarke
Giles/Engel
Howson
Barlaser
Hackney
Doak/Silvera
Gilbert/Iheanaccho
Azaz
Illing Junior/Hamilton
Latte Lath
Coburn
You can’t really fall off picking a position or available player that may suit. £20m to bring in 15 players suddenly sound a little light.. 10 permanent and 5 loans sounds a wee but more manageable.. but hey.. we brought in Morgan Rogers for around £1m!
We probably won’t sell ALL of those listed.. and we probably have a few academy lads ready to step up. The constant line we’ve heard is we’re looking to bring in RB, CB, MF, RW & ST (right sided attacker)
Dijksteel, Clarke, Howson, Coburn & Latte Lath seem to stack up with those.
Oh.. AND we’ve been looking at free transfers.. bit of an obvious one if we’ve potentially got a turnover as great as that.
Fry, Forss, Lenihan & Finch also going into their final year of their contacts.
The first two moves have been to bolster our academy.. a fair few have been released and that production line might need a bit of help. Private flights from Croatia, Switzerland, France & Germany might not all be about the first teamers (if at all to do with Boro signings)
Maybe we should be starting with who we think will stay? And build from that.. and we may as well build using Edwards favoured set up if the turnover is going to be so great.. and it just so happen to be cheaper than putting together a squad under Carrick’s favoured system of play..
Maybe selling Hackney and RVDB is not such a bad idea after all.. £1m spend limit could be.. limiting. It sure changes what players we can afford to be looking at. (maybe that’s the hold up) it’s looking like five loans might be the order of the day to stretch the pennies. Strengthening the academy certainly won’t do us any harm.
First team candidates from further afield will help spread the wealth.. more bang for our buck..
Flights
Olbia, Sardinia - Olbia Calcio 1905
Giulio Marroni 19yo defensive midfielder, ex Crystal Palace U21 (which just so happens to be where we picked our head scout up from)
Eggenfelden, Bavaria - SSV Eggenfelden
Home to 26yo right back Thomas von Sommoggy! Laurenz Bockhardt 19yo central defender.. might have been given a heads up from Aaron Danks?
Bordeaux-Merignac - Bordeaux
Amadou Diallo 22yo left winger, ex Newcastle U21 player. might be something in it with Graham Carrick’s recent involvement. Also they have Travis Mutyaba 19yo right winger?
Erfurt, Thuringia - FC Rot-Weiß Erfurt
Luca Florian 19yo centre back, left back, defensive midfield..
Split, Croatia - HNK Hajduk Split
Niko Sigur 21yo defensive midfielder, can play right back and central defence
Alfie Doughty Not named in a recent Luton friendly.. it’s set tongues wagging.
ITK.. they’re having a laugh!
