loan signings

[leeblue]

It seems following comments from within the club hat we will be getting 2/3 loans in next week, my question is what positions would people like to see strengthened, I pesonally would love to see a left back and a really pacy winger come in, right wing as I think moooooooooooooooooooooos is becoming the new mark gower, if I was being really greedy a theo kind of forward too

I'd like Dervitte back, so Barrett can go back to left-back.
I'd like Freddy Eastwood back for a while also though i can't see him and Barney passing to each other much;)
Oh and one other "utility" player that can slot in and cover the injured when needs be. A Lewis Hunt. Or Lewis Hunt himself!

I look forward to seeing all three grinning on the OS this week and our attack on the league title begin in earnest.

I expect one striker and one defender, possibly even Dervite himself.

 

[BrettieAngell]

Freddy, freddy, freddy!!

Ahhhh just imagine if we did get Eastwood on loan - what a master stroke of PR that would be by Ron and would instantly give everyone such a boost that I suspect Geoff King could break into your house and **** on your kids and you wouldnt batter an eyelid!

It would be a shame to see Herd replaced now, so I'd like to see another CB brought in, rather than a LB and if Herd needs a rest, then Barrett can go out there.

Midfield I'm more than happy with as we are well covered and anyone else coming in would keep Sawyer further out of the side - Sawyer playing regularly would be worth not getting anyone in in midfield.

M'Voto, he's a Frenchman isn't he? Nicely lined up Tilly, bring on Dorian!
In football, anything can happen. Freddy? Who knows! I can imaging the Echo absolutely creaming themselves and cuddling up to Ron though.

Freddy and Dorian coming in I'd be pretty excited too!

 

[palexander]

Checked out Coventry's site and whilst you never say never in football, it seems he is determined to get a regular place in their first XI and said he wants to be fit and ready for when Coleman makes changes.

Still, live in hope eh?

 

[Shrimper]

There was a piece on the radio before the game which was replayed afterwards and Ron Martin said that they are likely to be looking for a LB, CB and ST to replace Revell.

 

[class]

The LB coming in on loan has been mooted on here numerous times.....

Mate is a Cov fan and they think he's ****. I can see him being loaned out, though to us I dunno.

 

[Angell Delight]

I see that Chris Dickson may be leaving Charlton on loan, now for me that would be a truly excellent piece of business! It's been mooted that Tilly wants a Theo-type striker in......

Other than the fact that Eastwood is **** do you really think we could afford even half of his current wage ?

We'll be getting

a) a left back. Herd is good but he's not ready for 40 games and will get torn apart by Leeds.

b) A centre-back to play alongide the beast. Barrett just about an adequate sub if needed

c) a striker. Though I'd much prefer a winger.

Not a striker who can play on the wing then? :whistling:

And Freddy might be prepared to negotiate, you never know, if he just wants to play - and I think he probably does - he could be tempted. He admitted before he nearly came back didn't he? Did no-one spot him in the stands last night? Keep your eyes open next week!

I thought that TIlly said on Thursday that he'd spoken to Freddy and shook his head as if to say it wasnt gonna happen ??

 

[Shrimper2thecore]

The report did not actually say we would be getting 2/3 in. It said we would be looking to, but only if they were right for the squad and the team. I don't wish to be negative, but I don't want the forum to explode saying we have been lied to if nobody comes in.

I kind of hope we don't get a centre back, as I want to see Johnny Herd a chance, he is good enough.

We would all love Dervite, but I can't see him coming to us with all the big teams he has been mentioned with

 

[Clinton Baptiste]

I think Herd is good enough and dont want him to be another Kightly. However if someone like Daniel Jones was available I would take him as he is an excellent set piece taker and I feel this is an area we need to improve on.
Centre back wouldnt go amiss but Mvoto and Barrett looked pretty good last night, and Franno can play there.
A striker is a must though as Walker and Freedman arent good enough in my opinion and we could do with a bit of pace up top.

 

[Beefy]

We need a left back and a centre-back, although after a shaky twenty minutes I though M'Voto played well last night and Barrett was top notch (as always ;) ).

I still don't agree with the need for a striker. We have four and that's more than enough. One of Laurent or Walker needs to be told that they are going to be starting eight or nine games in a row. Otherwise they are never going to settle. Dougie is a cracking sub to throw on for 20 minutes at the end of a game too. Unless one of our four main forwards gets injured I don't see why we'd waste valuable cash on another one. If we can bring in a third loanee it should be a winger, IMO.

Obviously if we sign Eastwood I'll change my mind.

 

[The General]

I'd say we'll be after a: LB, CF & CB ... in that order. LB sounds like its going to be a very good player and should follow well in the foot-steps of Mulgrew, Harding and Hammell!! (and Jonnie Herd!)

rumour has it Dervitte was at Training on Thursday and Friday, him along with a pacey striker would be great, wouldnt be surprised to see Walker go out on a months loan to get some footy, maybe at Yeovil.
