Got to get one in tonight, Basham isn't going to cut it as the main man in the enforcer position and we have no one else that can dominate that position. Late bid for Grant at Port Vale?
 



Has to be a CM to come in. Serious questions over Wilder's judgement if he's prioritised less important positions like winger and having to get in another LB because the first one he got is utter shit.
 
You think we will get what we need today?

I don't see why it is such a huge priority.

We've also got Fleck, and Scougall and Coutts so far this season have been like new players. I think we have got some strength in depth in that position, and potentially Whiteman and Brook might get an opportunity soon. I think Wilder has filled the positions he needed filling as a priority. Having seen Brayford and Wallace leave during the last few days I would have said a couple of decent full backs would have been a priority to increase strength in depth and give us different options
 
Mate of mine that works at a certain football ground very familiar to us said earlier Danny Holla from BHA is looking favourite today??????

Don't know how true, but the guys name is floating around there at the min!?
 
I'll be the one to say it...


What's Dean Hammond doing these days?
 
I am not sure there is one with coutts back in favour, fleck basham and Whiteman. With us moving to more of a 4231 the top 4 should be attackers... Chapman, scougall, Duffy, Lavery, sharp, Clarke, done

On the basis of that we are short of a winger/forward rather than a midfielder if there is one more

I agree that is the system - we're weak in the 2 though - need someone strong, an enforcer, to play alongside either Fleck or Coutts in the deeper playmaker role. Someone who isn't Chris Basham.
 
Not saying you're wrong, but he might look at fleck and coutts as his first two. If he can get something out of coutts then we have something there


The only thing that he`ll get out of Coutts is a serial inability to tackle/track back/run/pass forward/shoot.
Other than that he`s the dogs bollox.
 
Not being sarcastic, just don't know. Has wilder identified that he wants a new CM, or is that fans opinion?
 



Fleck and Coutts look ok to me when things are going well, but it's when we have to dig in and try to grind something out against a more physical side that the CM's we have worry me.
 
For all the negativity about Coutts and Basham (which is understandable), their lack of goals won't matter so much if they're the two in 4-2-3-1.

The emphasis will really fall on Duffy et al, and he's done it before even if his teammates haven't...

Good point about Duffy, totally forgot we had him.
 
Scougall, Basham and Coutts aren't good enough in a 2 or a 3 man midfield in my opinion. Fleck, from what I've seen, has a lot of potential to be a very good central midfielder in a 3 man, but not in a 2. So I'd have to agree that we're one short in there. Disappointing to see Barnsey sign Morsy and then loan Moncur to Peterborough. 2 players that probably would have been ideal for us. Let's hope Wilder pulls something out of the bag, but it's not looking likely.
 
You're all forgetting that once James Wallace is fit, it'll be like having a new player
 
Why do I put myself through this every year!? I can't go to bed before 11 even though it's nailed on that our business is done.
