Bacuna

Wed Jun 26, 2019 1:36 pm

Been keeping an eye on the Gold Cup.

Bacuna looks like he’s in some form.

I’m liking the look of our team next year.

Etheridge smithies

Peltier. Richards
Manga Conolly
Morrison Bamba (when fit)
Bennett Cunningham

Vaulks
Ralls Bacuna

NML Paterson
Murphy Hoilett
Reid Tomlin

Zahore Madine Ward

Really only a centre midfielder away from two for every position and I think Paterson will turn out to be a decent centre midfielder if he ever played there.

IMO not quite there yet.

For me the jury's out on Bacuna. Gold Cup not exactly a high level of football.

We've lost Gunnarson, Camarasa & Arter and so far have brought in no one (although Vaulks looks nailed down), so we need at least one another quality player in there & I'm not trusting Tomlin for the season ... although I do see his potential.

We DESPERATELY needed a goal scorer last season and despite being a league lower, my opinion hasn't changed ... if we're serious about challenging for promotion.

So, + 2 in midfield, + 1 up front and we could make a bold effort to get back to the Prem.

And a winger to replace Kads. :thumbup:

I think we are set really winger wise. Ain’t a priority for me.

Warnock loves a winger, I think he will bring in another to freshen it up.
