25 man squad ?

Thu Aug 09, 2018 4:46 pm

Etheridge
Smithies
Murphy

Peltier
Richards
Bennett
Cunningham
Morrison
Bamba
Manga
Connolly

Gunnarsson
Ralls
Paterson
Damour
Camarasa
After

Hoilett
Mendez-Laing
Murphy
Harris

Zohore
Madine
Ward
Reid

NW, true to his word, no "big time Charlie's". Deadline day captures of Camarasa and Arter gives a bit more cover in midfield. Unfortunately, no striker, but technically got four in squad.
Now all they have to do is scrap their way to survival.
Come on you Bluebirds :-)

As Reid can play throughout midfield would you consider dropping Harris for Pilkington.

Just a rather out there thought.

I would Wayne. Pilks is a better bet for me than Harris

The only 3 I'd be concerned about there are damour, Madine and ward.

All the others have shown that they have the quality to be in Premier league. The problem is they've gta show it week in week out now not just the odd game

Just going on pre season games, I think NW will go with Harris over Pilks, personally it makes sense to me, as he'll basically have two players vying for every position.
I know Pilkington is versatile, but Kadeem looks pretty sharp, so if he can put his injury problems behind him, he's a good back up for the wingers.

I think pilks could possibly get the nod over ward

Solid 25 that. Think the 2 mids today are both better than Grujic too. Happy with the transfer window.

Pilks will be off on loan to a championship club. They can loan from us until end of month. They'll be circling like vultures following the announcement of the 25's wanting cheap deals. Somewhere like Sheffield Wednesday would suit him perfectly.

Ward is a cert to be in the 25, was just coming into form when injury struck.
