Title: January requirements
Post by: steve@dcfd on November 26, 2021, 07:28:43 pm
In the latest article on Twitter from Liam when interviewing Richie. The requirements are defensive midfield player plus two attacking players. There are list put together with six or seven on the lists for different positions. We will have to be patient to get the players we want hopefully we can do it early but it’s getting the players away from their parent clubs. It will come down to finance and whether we can get the player. He wants experience players.
Will be deciding on all the loan players as well.

Surely we need a defensive player or two as well, unless Blythe and Faulkner are seen as good and ready enough?

By the way, anyone know how Joe Wright’s recovery is progressing?

I was speaking with someone a couple of days ago about Joe Wright.
We were wondering how his recovery was coming along and ventured onto whether he might accept a contract with us (if one is offered) after we have looked after his rehabilitation.

I'd take a 1 legged Joe Wright right now, tbh.

By January Williams will be back and Owulu not suspended. Not a priority when we have peanuts left to spend.

I cant see us getting out of this mess anyway, il be amazed if we stay up. This defensive midfielder must be as rare as rocking horse shit, we have been looking for one since June.

What's the betting that this defensive midfielder ends up being a 19 year old from Norwich?

The defensive midfielder that we can afford is as rare as rocking horse sh1t.

I agree with you Rovers91 I can’t see us getting out of this. I’ll be surprised if we get out of this unfortunately

At this rate we will be lucky to get 30 points this season. Our away record is embarrassing.

Our priority is a new manager. Now, not in January.

Who on earth, of any sort of the quality we need, is going to be remotely interested in joining a soon to be lge 2 club?

6 academy kids in today’s squad,
Really don’t know what another manager could do with a squad that’s so weak

Trouble is, if wellens left, any new manager will struggle to get anything out of the likes of dodo and cukur.
They are just not good enough.and it’s nothing to do with Wellens.

Williams, owuhu, okinaberhie, John, bostock, Taylor, all missing
And a bench that’s full of kids, the squad is the problem not the manager

as i said this morning

"was just (not) looking forward to facing a Sheff united loanee striker today (rated a mere 5 million) at Burton and like you all thinking why didn't he come here ?" etc etc


it makes you wonder what would have happened if he wasnt in the team

The manager is a big problem,
