After all the comings & goings of recent days, does anyone have an up to date list of what the squad now looks like?
Thanks

I like the way JJ Hooper is simply Jonathan Hooper.

Looking at the list, I hope we don’t sign too many more. I think our friends down the road, despite coming up short in the end, had absolutely the right idea keeping their squad small.

Quite exciting times ahead.

We need at least 5 more I think. As it stands we've got 19 players. 3 of those have never made a FL appearance (A. Rose, Wright and Robles) and Clifton only has a handful to his name. Between our five strikers they've only got between them 32 goals in professional football (16 each for Cook and Hooper) so we clearly need some more fire power at the very least.

I reckon we need a goalscorer as a priority, another forward/striker/wide forward depending on what formation Jolley is planning to use, a back up keeper, another right back and possibly another centre back too. If Dixon leaves which has been rumoured then we'd also need cover at left back.

I think we only need 2 more 3 at the most,

A back up keeper and a goal scoring striker ( might need to spend some money on that one )


Plus a player that can play in a few different positions.

A matchday squad is 18 and we have 19 (if Akheem's contract goes through) so we need at least another 5...

• Backup keeper
• Right Back
•• 2 Wingers
• and a Quality Striker

Squad of 24 should be about right.
Last season saw 13 released and 7 loanees return to their parent club, so 20 players replaced by 12 would suggest a smaller and tighter group with added quality. Bring on the new season
