Mansfield bid £100,000 for James berrett and Luke summerfield but John fenty describes offer as derisory.

Someone like tom Thorpe (ex Man Utd youth team skipper) would've been worth a look at. Played plenty of games on loan at Bolton/Bradford in past couple of seasons and without a club now

Would have to vastly increase our pay structure to entice him

We are in danger of having too many players it must be approaching 30. This is against an initial plan to trim the squad. I don't get it and will not lead to a settled side.

One minute people are moaning we have a 'bargain basement' squad and accusing Fenty of penny pinching, and the next we're moaning that we don't want any more players!

I agree it's not healthy to have a massive squad, but he what can we do if we can't offload? Just stick to what we have even if it's not quite working yet? (Although I do believe it's too early to judge). And if a better player than what we have becomes available do we just pass up on him?

These opening games we have looked thin, squad wise to be honest. Obviously there's been injuries, Clements not fit or not fancied, suspensions(!). We're too heavy with wingers and forwards, but a lot of them are younger players who perhaps don't expect to start every game, but should be busting a gut to stay in.

Crazy to say it, but I think we do need another CM. perhaps a utility defender too?

without Osbourne we lack a bit of creativity in central midfield. We have wide players in DJ, Siriki and Tom but all are naive, and inexperienced. Woolford may add a bit more nous but hasnt played much of late.

Still expect a couple to go out if we can shift them

A central midfielder with just a slight hint of having any talent whatsoever and a defender who on a good day could do the 100m in 25 seconds would be welcome improvements on the current squad.

We don't know what's going on with McAllister - is he ever going to be fit? If he isn't we haven't got a CM of that type. An educated guess is that it's a similar scenario with Asante which is why we've signed Matt.
