Ok some may say I am jumping the gun ? but there is no way we are not going to get promoted !
Warne says he wants to sign Grigg for next season ? to me that’s a NO, NO ! Why ? because if we signed him that would probably be our full quota of strikers for the season. With Kelly, JJ, at least one of Freddie or Smithy we would have our four strikers ! They would not be good enough to keep us up ! We run with three of them last season and got relegated.
We really need to add another striker who has genuine pace, that’s our weakness ? and needs addressing for survival !
The second area that needs strengthening is the left side centre back, it’s so important to have a left footer there ? we saw at Plymouth how Mattock was feeding the balls down the line and looking a lot more balanced with him in there ? the only problem was when they started passing balls down the channel’s and he was woefully short of pace and had to be replaced, so yes a younger fitter version of Mattock.
The third area that needs improving is midfield, yes, we need a leader in there for example Bannon,Pritchard, Lulongo,Morsey etc, not only a leader but somebody who can score some match winners when we are under the cosh, I think Lindsay will move on and maybe one or two more ie Miller, Chieo, Icky, maybe who knows ?
I have seen some very good players this season in Division 1 including Colby Bishop, Scott Twine,Afoylan,Curtiss and the other winger for Portsmouth, two centre backs for Accrington, Nottingham and the other big lad, Greg Leigh for Morecambe at left wing back, Fossey on loan at Bolton right wing back, the two Plymouth players Hardie and the midfielder who both have pace and run at the opposition with pace ! all of these would improve the team for next season ? but how many are in out price range ?
