Knockeart has hopefully played his last game for the reds.
I hope the next transfer window isn't conducted by some one [Ventzros?] who has just stepped off some football manager game.....

The transfer window is going to important as always especially for the manager. I'm sure that having spent a lifetime in the game he knows as well as we do, if not better, what we need.

We obviously have a lot of deadwood which needs to be shipped out. I don't think we need to bring many in though. We are OK for defensive players. But we do need some attacking players with pace, energy and ambition.

I'd also like to see some honesty regarding transfers. If there are players brought in who the manager hasn't asked for he should say so. Not to name names but just to say how many players were his choice how many were not. Admit when he has misjudged and brought in a player who turns out to be not good enough.

We should be prepared to splash out but only on a few (3 or 4 max) players. Quality not quantity

We need at east a winger, CM, AM and striker.

That would imply that Gabriel starts at RB (with no back-up) and Johnson comes in as well.

I’d expect 3-4 loans on top of that. A RB, winger, striker and someone in the middle.

I’m not looking forward to CHs brand of football for another season.

I'm hoping Christie and Krov will be with us next season. We will have Ribs or Blackett at left back so the back five should be OK. Gabriel, Soh, Figs as cover
Cafu and Yates will be the DM pair. Colback cover.
As it stands AM will be Lolley Krov (maybe) Ameobi. Mighten Carvalho and Johnson as cover
Striker Taylor/Grabban

Priority signings should be a pacey winger (Dembele) and a striker (ideally two if we can ship out Grabbs) (Yates, Jephcott, Clarke-Harris). Hopefully CH has another ace up his sleeve like Garner he can bring in.
