Are we going with Bruno at right back then

sparkie said:
Possibly. Or Rosenior. ( Or Gomez if we get him on loan ).

May need to re-assess in January, but probably not a priority this window

If we have Bruno and Rosenior as our only RB options until January I'd suggest we're aiming to win the Championship the next season.

Who is Dennis Aogo..the answer to our left back issues is who...

Left back who can play defensive midfield.

Out of contract at Schalke in 3 days. Played for Germany a few times.

Watford and West Brom were also in for him!

In which case we can hazard a guess as to where he's likely to end up.

Isn't the rumour that he has already ended up somewhere ?

Maenpaa to re-sign I wouldn't count as a signing - therefore one keeper.

Two strikers - agree with that.

One left back.

Rosenior can play right wing.

Central attacking midfielder.

That's my five.

Goldson - no guarantee of going in loan and Norwood - who knows?

Goalkeepers

Ryan
Maenpaa
New signing

Defenders

Bruno
Bong
Rosenior
New signing
Goldson
Hunemeier
Duffy
Dunk

Midfield

Groß
Stephens
Kayal
Sidwell
Norwood?/New signing
Knockaert
March
Murphy
Skalak

Strikers

Murray
Hemed
Baldock
New signings (2)

That's the 25.

I'd be surprised if both Skalak & Murphy are in the 25 we register.

Watford... According to Bild, however this was reported here by talksport, so could be bollox

Only three weeks ago, but yeah a lot can change in a day, never mind three weeks.

You never know maybe he would prefer to become the 3rd member of the German revolution at the Amex

look at this from Quinn.

Arrogance of it

I thought the same.. Perhaps one of them, but we can't afford to have both taking up squad places.

Mine would be:

Goalkeepers

1. Ryan
2. Maenpaa
3. New signing

Defenders

4. Bruno
5. New Signing RB
6. Bong
7. Rosenior
8. New signing LB
9. New Signing CB (Goldson on loan)
10. Hunemeier
11. Duffy
12. Dunk

Midfield

13. Groß
14. Stephens
15. Kayal
16. Sidwell
17. New signing CM (Norwood Loan)
18. Knockaert
19. March
20. Murphy
21. New Signing Winger (Skalak Loan)

Strikers

22. Murray
23. Hemed
24. Baldock
25. New Signing
26. New Signing

That's sadly 26, so one position / player would have to go....

Can we survive with Bruno / Rosenior at RB?
Do we need to let both of Murphy / Skalak go out on loan to bring in another quality winger?
Do we need another Central Midfield player, or can we get by with Gross, Stephens, Kayal, Sidwell?
Do we need 2 extra strikers?
Do we need 3 senior goalkeepers, or could we use Walton to free up a senior place?

It shows the importance of getting younger players who are 'free' as far as the 25 man squad is concerned, like Abraham.

Rosenior - playing right wing - in the Premier League

mattjl15 · Jun 28, 2017

Looking at Aogo over the past 3 seasons:

He's got top-flight experience and is versatile

Seems to suffer at least 1 mid-long term injury a season, limiting to him to a best of 25 appearances in one season (over the past 3 years)

On a free... you'd hope the medical is thorough.

He's played there before with Fulham Reading and Hull.

Aware he's played there - took up that position a few times for us as well. Doesn't mean I'd want to be going into our first season in the Prem with him as our 2nd option on the right wing.

He's almost 33 and pace has never been his biggest attribute.

Bloody hope so, at least initially.

Don't get me wrong, I love Bruno, but I don't feel hugely comfortable with the idea of him being our main right back.

Got something to say or just want fewer pesky ads? Join us... 😊
