Samba, Smith

Gabriel, new RB
Worrall, McKenna, Mbe Soh, Figs
Ribeiro, new LB

Yates, Sow, McGuane, New cm/ cdm
Krovinovic, Johnson

Mighten, Lolley/ Ameobi, New winger x2

Taylor, New striker.

Realistically a tight knit squad of 22 shoul be along these sort of lines. Make 5/ 6 good quality signings give them time to gel and see where it gets us. We need proven players at this level that are under 27. Ideally we get a couple of good hungry u23 players.
Fingers crossed that the board etc have realised signing 39 y/ o doesn’t work and we need younger hungry players.

The above should all be shown the door this month and replaced by U23 and out on loan players namely

Gabriel

Johnson
McGuane

Then get Dale Taylor into the 18 and give Swann and Mighten regular game time instead of Take and Grabban And pay 5m to sign Dembele and Jephcott.

Samba, Smith

New RB (Fisher/ Odubajo), Jenkinson/ promote youth player
Worrall, McKenna, Mbe Soh, Figs
Ribeiro, New LB (Morgan fox) / promote youth player

Yates, Sow, Cafu, New CM/ CDM x2, (Browne/ Pearson/ Mowatt/ Luongo)
New CAM (Reach/ Powell)

Mighten, Ameobi, Lolley? New winger x1/ 2 (Siriki dembele, Murphy)

New striker (Jephcott/ Meite/ Assombalonga), Taylor.

That squad would undoubtedly get us a top 6 finish. Would be a well balanced team with quality in every position. We’re a good team now, it’s just an ageing team. The squad age needs to be brought down by a couple of years.
Adding players that are close to entering their prime years (26ish) are the types of players we need/ must sign if we want to push for promotion. While the new players I have mentioned might not be flashiest or best players I think they’re a good solid, hard working players that with the right team spirit would push for and likely get a top 6 finish.

Darlow
Lascelles Worrall Osborne
Appiah Yates Johnson Mighten

Just needs a right back. Not a bad team. and wouldn’t have cost us a penny.

Samba
New RB Worrall McKenna Ribeiro
Mowatt* Sow Whiteman*
Dembele* Taylor Amuzu*

Smith, Mbe Soh, Jenkinson, Yates, New CM (Pearson or Browne from PNE would start over Mowatt), Lolley, New striker.

Would be a good side that’s balanced. Has creativity, speed, strength. All round quality. That would be my ideal team going into next season.
