What do we need ?

What do we need ?

We need to find an improvement in Robinson to progress. He'd be a useful sub perhaps but never good enough to be starting in a team looking for promotion.

Next season will be the first in which AN has had a full pre-season with the squad. Let's see how the players react to that.
 
I think we need cover for both full backs if Woods and Cunningham move on as I think will happen
Ledson / another creative midfielder
Another striker along side Moult / Maguire

A natural right back to compete with Fisher, possibly a left back if Cunningham leaves, a wide player to compete with Barkhuizen, possibly 2 centre midfielders and another striker. Whether we achieve this I've no idea.

Would probably go along with that. Also could see a centre back coming in and Spurr leaving for more games.
 
I'd say we need eye tests for those who thought Robbo played well - especially in the 2nd half when we played with 9 men !!!

He isnt good enough and I should know because I said the same thing last year about Alan Browne !!!

He had a full pre-season (minus one day) last summer.

If you mean with regards sorting out the pre-season friendlies, then fair enough.

I was impressed by the millwall forward lee Gregory when we played them, he was hard as nails caused us a lot of problems. Surprised to find he only scored 10 goals this season. We'd never spend on a player from another established championship team anyway.

Turns out in my opinion hugill was as good as any at that role, we underappreciated him as a supporters group at times, and understand why we did/let him go for a good fee.

It's a catch 22 with big strikers. It's a good option to have in the squad but by many supporters it's frowned upon if a big lad if brought on to hit it long to.

Neil has stated that his preference is a more fluid forward line, in which the forwards can switch positions.

As for buying from Championship clubs, if anyone's had a good season at this level already then they're already way out of our price range unfortunately.
 
No1 priority has to be keeping Cunningham/ tying him down to a new deal. Keeping him, Pearson, Davies, Browne and Maguire is going to be imperative to our play off push next year. Gally should get a year extension too. He's proved time and time again how important he is to this team.
From what I've seen and heard of Ledson I think he's a no brainer, if Gally goes or not.
Nakhi Wells is another I think we should fight to sign. Scored goals at this level, can play up top, in behind or wide if needed. Our main issue this season has been not finding the back of the net, and he can do just that at this level. Sign him, then we have Moult, Maguire and Wells as our options. Not bad at all if you ask me
The defence needs more cover. Anyone saying Spurr should leave needs to give their head a wobble. Experienced player who's filled in a few times this season and we haven't looked much worse off at all. And he's left footed. A solid player that should stay. We do, however, need right back cover for Fisher. Woods is done at this level in my opinion.
Add a few more additions and get rid of the dead weight, and I think we'll mount a serious challenge next season.
Alex Neil- the only bald man I've ever trusted 😉
 
Karlan Ahearne-Grant and Graham Carey, players we’ve both reportedly been scouting, both scored on the final weekend of games.

Maybe it might be you who needs the eye test, given you seem to be the only one who thinks he was poor!

maybe you havent read a lot of the other comments then - or sat in the section near his dad on Sunday when I was only one of a few hundred screaming after yet another messed up pass or chance.

What the frig is this even supposed to mean?
 
Robinson had a good game, his movement was great but if he was a clinical finisher then he wouldn't be playing for us.

Pearson man of the match by a mile, but Robinson and Rudd not far behind as our best performers.

Hilarious how we've finished 7th and the same lot continue to slate our players. Absolutely clueless.

30 starts, 7 goals, 7 assists, not bad for someone who usually plays out wide.

He is different class, For a player in his position we will never get what he's worth.. just hope he stays. He's a premier league midfielder.. no doubt about it. And he's only 23/24?
