Can play right back too, we're a bit light on numbers there!

Can't see it we got plenty of players who can play in Midfield i could understand a backup fullback or a striker perhaps.

regardless of what we already have, he would be a really good signing, can play right back, centre or right mid, i dont think he will drop to this level though.

We need goal-scoring strikers if we are to get promoted.

I think he'd be a terrific signing - always  impressed me when I've seen him play. I understand what people are saying about not needing someone in that position but I think sometimes players become available that are too good to turn down,  regardless of position.

I think we're fine with our current selection of defenders/defensive midfielders. Even if such a player is really, really good, surely we would be better off spending wages on attacking players?

We've got 3 capable central defenders (4 with Boyce on loan and 5 with Magnay who can also play there), 3 proven full-backs (plus Walker and Winfarrah who look good prospects) and 3 proven central midfielders plus the young lad Clay. Surely we don't need to strengthen these areas any further?

Well we know hurst is a defensive minded manager and as you saw he bought boyce back so anything defensive wise it wouldnt surprise me.

Well, getting Boyce back for a month seems good business. With Pearson and Nsiala suspended for the first game of the season (two for Pearson), having a backup for Doig was useful.

I think we're pretty well covered for defensive players at the moment and it would take a huge injury crisis (as with the attackers at present), for us to struggle at the back, even after Boyce goes back. It will be good if Walker can make a bit of a breakthrough as well this season to match up with Winfarrah's encouraging performance the other night.

Maybe hurst is using the old adage.......defence is the best form of attack?

The only thing I can think is that Boyce won't be here longer than a month and we're looking at playing 4-3-3? That would potentially reason for our lack of attacking players if we only needed 3 each game and not 4.
