I would like to see Yusef get a chance. On the odd occasion he played I thought he did well. He's powerful and fairly quick. With a run in side he could be the answer to the who replaces Bogle question.

Opposite for me - after a decent start, he left me feeling underwhelmed and I think we need better.

Thought he was poor against Exeter and ok against Luton, didn't see Carlisle and Hartlepool where he was very good by all accounts. I think there's a player in there, needs a run of games because he disappeared after the Crewe nightmare.

I'm with Cloudy. I will be shocked and massively disappointed if we don't bring in at least one striker. I can't honestly see Slade not bringing his own choices in. Going with 3 of someone else's picks just doesn't seem likely to me.

To make a successful team we need to bring the best out of our best players. From last season they are Jones and Osborne. There is a chance that Dembele and Kelly might be but we don't know. Therefore we need to play Jones and Osborne in their best positions and put players around them who will allow them to express themselves. Osborne needs grafters and combative players around him, we already have McAllister and I think Rose may be similar. For me we need a clever target man to compliment Jones, this might be Vernon of we give him a run of games or Slade might know someone better.

Would it be possible that we are holding off from announcing a striker signing to coincide with 1st day of season ticket sales. Seems that some contracts have been arranged weeks ago but only just being announced???

Honestly cant see another striker coming in.
I think we are looking for left backs x 2 and a goalkeeper, cant see beyond that at present as the gaps are full. besides the loan market would fill any poor performers.

We have 4 players in Jones, asante yusef and vernon. are they all good enough? jones is a yes, vernon is ok for squad but the jury is out on asante anf yusef as they have not had enough realistic game time to judge.
Akeem Rose shouldnt be considered a senior and needs games in the reserves against men to see if there is a wiff of a player.


You missed off that list 2or 3 new center backs

Certainly most important is to shore the defence up first with full backs and centre backs, and look for a loan striker at the end of the loan period if required.
