Glatzel as it stands is unproven and Bogle has generally gone off the boil or had issues off the field. Not to say they won't come good along with Medine but I really think we need another.


People are forgetting Ward and Patterson. Madine should be 5th choice out of the 5


I've not forgotten them.

another midfielder available mo besic , could be a good loan if arter is not coming :bluescarf: :bluescarf:

Nemanja Radoja is available as a free transfer only 26 and very decent CM. He’s someone worth having a look at.

We’ve filled the squad now we need 2-3 quality players (2 x midfielders and either a right back or winger) that go straight into the starting 11.

We will no doubt have to move few out. Realistically that’s going to be Cunningham, Tomlin and Bogle (would like to keep the latter two). I wouldn’t be surprise if we are are listen to offers for Murphy. He’s just too inconsistent.

Based on the way we play, I still don’t see where Reid fits in (which is a shame as I think he could be a big player for us). Would like us to build the team around him. Reid might benefit from Gratzel starting as he’s more mobile than Madine. Will create more space for him and give him more options on the ball.

I've wondered for a while why no one has taken him, he was very good at Boro whenever I watched them. Technically very good as well.

I agree with your comments on Murphy and Reid. Spot on in my view. Cunningham should only go if we’ve lined up a replacement. Atm he’s our main back up. 2 x CMs should be our priority. Peltier is great at this level but I agree with those saying more pace is needed in central defence

apparently we are linked with eddie nketiah from arsenal but a few clubs interested including bristol city who 'lead the queue'

Please no more "squad players" now. We need quality.

Re: ‘ Medicals this week / CCFC ‘

I feel like we should have come down to this league with other clubs fearing our squad after a few signings. It’s been the complete opposite especially after Saturdays result. We need a real marquee signing this week. Preferably a midfielder and a pacey right back. If we don’t tick both those boxes I really fear a mid table finish.

No need for a medical at our club - Just turn up and sign up please ;)

Joe Allan £10 million.. marquee signing job done :occasion5:

Stick him in front of the back four, move Reid back to an attacking midfielder 4-1-4-1 formation, premier league here we come!!

Thank you and goodnight :ayatollah:

Just what we need although he's on around 60k a week. Caught up with his old man in Narberth end of last season and Stoke were open to offers to reduce their wage bill. Had enquries from Wolves, Watford and West Ham but nothing seems to have happened over the summer break.

not sure how true it was but i heard that NW was annoyed that he went to watch Fulham while we were playing at OT against United.

Arter does not like traveling north.Let's hope he does not fall out with his new manager as it could lead to matrimonial problems.
