Summer 2016: Transfer rumours and suggestions

[Gregorys Boy]

Well I think we lack both kinds of midfielder player actually.  But in such a fast pace league as the Championship the Milner type could come in more useful.

There no midfielder in our first team I would rush to keep.

Wee Barry fuck that. He isn't good enough hence why we sold him can't face seeing those 30 yard Fucking Hollywood balls. I just saw we were in for Matty Phillips?

I would really like to see us have two solid central midfielders in front of the back four and provided a solid defensive unit.  If that unit is in place, we can then tinker with the four attacking players ahead of them.

There's nobody that I'd be devastated to lose.

There's also nobody that I'd be particularly upset about if they were in the team next month.

The thing is I think wee Baz would have been good enough in a decent midfield. He was playing in a midfield of featherweights.
He, at least, had the vision to pick out the, so called, Hollywood pass. And he could take a corner that beat the first defender.

Our squad really doesn't need 10 new players to get promoted if you are purely looking at footballing ability. Their attitude needs a huge adjustment though.

Some are too far gone so will need replacing. Others might come good in the right environment.

What we must have by the end of the summer is a senior professional in each department of the pitch who sets the standard for everyone else.

In attitude. In training. On the pitch in adversity. Get those players (and Elphick was a start) and some of those who acted out last season will come along with them.

This does not apply to Gabby and Richards.

[mr underhill]

realistically how many new players do you think we really need - and how many will go?

[Ger Regan]

I know it's still early, but it is a *little* concerning that there's barely been a peep about any other incomings other than elphick. I get that they want to see the squad in action on the training camp, but still.

I think it is pretty clear that we are going to be bringing in a goalkeeper.  I just hope the new management staff haven't fallen into the trap of allowing certain players to start afresh.  I would hope someone at the club would have identified a number of players that need to be removed asap.

What's been said in terms of a goalkeeper?

Supposed to have bid about 4.1M for an Hellas Verona GK. Called something like Pierluigi Gollina.

Also a potential loan deal for Juventus keeper Nicola Leali on loan.

Matty Phillips and a French versatile defender (oh no, not another Crespo!), Frederic Guilbert being linked too.

[eddiemunster]

Apparently, Callum Robinson is signing for PNE today.

[Diablo]

Where is the recent Matt Philips link? I can see us being linked with him in articles from 2012 and 2105 but not recently?
