Crusoe Posted June 29, 2017 Author Share Posted June 29, 2017 (edited) Dan Gardner wearing 6? Mind you probably a bit early to be working out squad numbers. Edited June 29, 2017 by Crusoe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welshgaz Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 Must be a trialist or a new signing. Too old to be a youth player and not someone we had last season? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue_Guru Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 2 x GK's 1 x LB, 1 x Striker/winger how many loaners can you have? I suspect all the above may be loans which are likely to be done in the last week or two of pre season if so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue_Guru Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 Granted 1 x GK is likely to be in earlier...we can always use youth gK's in pre season games. Doesn't bother me if it means we get a better Calibre of GK for the start of the season. Not exactly critical to pre season tactics other than distribution,organising the defence and how they collect crosses etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crusoe Posted June 29, 2017 Author Share Posted June 29, 2017 First post in the thread updated with the latest squad list, including Tope staying and assuming Kettings gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobOAFC Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 For a change the squad is looking decent already. Looking at it I'd make x2 keepers, LB (one that is also comfortable playing as a wing back if Shez sticks with 3-5-2?), LW (ideally left footed for balance) and another striker the priorities. Then if any room left in the budget another LB however I'd be happy going into the season with just one new LB with Stott & Wilson able to cover there.

Crusoe Posted July 5, 2017 Author Share Posted July 5, 2017 Well not that it was really in doubt but I'll take the fact that Kettings has been removed from the squad list on the official site as confirmation that he's gone... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crusoe Posted July 18, 2017 Author Share Posted July 18, 2017 I'd imagine if we play 4-4-2 it would be McLaughlin - wearing 11 so far in pre-season - in front of Hunt. Any other formation I reckon it'll be Hunt and McLaughlin competing at left wing back. Stott and at a push Wilson can cover left back.

yarddog73 Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 I get the impression from watching McLaughlin that he'd struggle anywhere on the left side of the pitch and the same goes for Dummigan, our left sided options consist of Hunt, Stott and Wilson and further forward Obadeyi and Flynn with the later probably capable of playing as a wing back at a push, not sure where another left sided players fits in as we have adequate options and don't want to overload the squad with players who we are unlikely to use.
