Player Suggestion Jimmy Dunne

[Nick Jansky]

Choudhury should be swerved due to the age profile. We need to find assets with resale value and the potential to develop. Ageing players on big wages should be limited. Even if the owners have a bottomless pit FFP is a huge concern. A right sided version of Burrows would be good.

He’s 27, not exactly old.

 

[Weasel]

He would be my first signing. I'd also be after Hamza too.

If Souza goes, which he probably will, it's a no brainer to sign Hamza. He really impressed me on loan.

That would not be a cheap deal to do even if Leicester were prepared to seel him to a direct rival.
That said, I thought he was outstanding for Utd and he finally solved the RB issue (at the 5th attempt!), making the defence far more solid as a 4.

You're right it wouldn't be a cheap deal. I guess RSS it all depends on whether Souza leaves because I do think Hamza would be a good replacement for Souza.

A downgrade IMHO but a replacement, yes.
He'd be a very expensive RB but it appears Kenny and/or Dunne are earmarked (+ Seriki)

Maybe with the cost of Hamza and his age that there are others available who could do a similar job and possibly younger. I'm guessing league One like with Burrows or a loan deal. May e well even go abroad but our record isn't great in that market.

I disagree he solved the RB question. He did exceptionally well against Sunderland BUT his first thought was to pass it inside to Angel/Vino every time.

I'd like a little more forward play from our fullbacks against most of the league next year.

I'd happily have him in MF if Vini leaves.

(Although fitting HC, Peck, Blaster, COH all in the same midfield might be tricky)

 

[FTPE]

Get him in ASAP.
Fantastic addition.
The rebuild begins..

Burrows Dunne Souttar Hamza.
There's your back 4.

 

[KOPPO]

jimmy dunne deffo sign him we ned help in defence

 

[HeySethUTB]

I just really hope these new owners can do something to keep Hamer, Souza and Anel. It’s the spine of the team. I heard some compare us to Leeds missing out then going onto do what they’ve done this season, but they were able to keep hold of some very creative players for this level despite losing Summerville, they had James and Gnoto, we don’t have that depth. I fear we’ll become a Norwich or WBA. If we can’t keep hold of them, we need to chuck any weight we have about and ruthlessly take from clubs in this division.

 

[Booker4]

Burrows Dunne Souttar Hamza.

Souttar out till next year, around a year out. So sadly he's not someone we can look at anytime soon.

 

[Whitby-Blade]

Don’t know much about the lad.

Season stats below…

Looks generally solid with a few exceptions, dribbled past, dispossessed and passing accuracy look like potential red flags.

Guess he’s a more traditional full back rather than attacking full back or wing back.

I'm not a stats man but I do know he drives forward. He's good in the air and aggressive. I think he's basically a taller version of Baldock and if I'm right there then that would be amazing. I know Baldock wasn't known for aerial prowess but I think in terms of aggression, determination and his runs forward he is similar to Baldock and like Baldock is a crowd favourite.

I do love an Irish player too, we're down on our quota of late!

I recall reading about how QPR leave him upfront for a prolonged period each time they send him up for a set piece. Guess he’s must cause havoc.

 

[Blades1971]

Aside of the player's mentioned. I believe we need new fitness coaches and conditioning coaches. All season they haven't looked particularly fit.
In addition there are too many player's not going beyond 60/70 minutes.
The game has changed and we need more athletic player's to compete.

 

[Blade56]

We won’t be Dunnes only option

 

[TJ blade]

Burrows Dunne Souttar Hamza.
There's your back 4.

Doubts about Souttar, he had a second op on his achilles, rumour as it, if things go well he could be back training Xmas time!

I heard that, but i thinknhe just put a picture on social media well after it took place. That's a complete guess though.
But yes, it'd be a gamble

People would have tapped a similar sign for Hamza.

We need more footballing coaches aswell as fitness coaches

A few websites on news now suggesting he’s about to become our first signing.

I hate summers these days with loads of transfers. I didn’t used to but now you know how much money gets wasted on greedy agents.

For me:
Dunne for RB
Mepham for CB
McBurnie for CF

All starters. All without a transfer fee. No doubt half decent signing-on fees but not astronomical.

Then sign a decent winger on loan.

Anyone else coming in should be to replace an outgoing player. This should be limited to Hamer, Souza and Peck so players like Poku, Choudhury and Doyle would be decent considerations.

Even if Brewster leaves it gives you Moore, McBurnie, Campbell, Cannon, One.

With the young defender being tied down it gives you Dunne, Seriki, Mepham, Ahmedhodzic, Robinson, Baptiste, Burrows, McCallum.

In midfield you still have Peck, Arblaster, Souza, Davies, O’Hare, Hamer, Brooks, Caceres. Plus another winger.

You’ve still got Cooper, Faxon and Davies.

You’ve then Grbic, Norrington-Davies and Shackleton that are probably surplus to requirements.

25 players, 3 new permanent players, one loan and minimal disruption. Good to go and without silly outlay and notwithstanding the odd youth May break through like Buyabi, Blacker etc.

Honestly I'm hoping we've got into a position where people don't want to leave.
McBurnie I'm not sure about, but agree with Dunne and mepham ,still think we need another centre half ( don't think it would happen but try for tanganga.)
Plus 2/3 attacking players be they wingers or adaptable players who can play across the 3 (once promotion was gone I hoped wilder would give the 2 young lads the odd 20/30 minutes)

Written on the back of Wilders fag packet

Can’t argue with Dunne, I was calling for him since that 10 man debacle of a comeback in the early season

 

[Blade58]

Dunne I’d be happy with.

Not sure on Mepham and he has PL interest so may not happen

On the fence re McBurnie. There’s positives and negatives
