... as Manager? 34 years old. Surely passed his best as a player.

Daniels will do a good holding job for us this season hopefully will help us get the job done. He is not the future that’s for sure so hope it’s only a short term contract

An experienced Premier League player in the dressing room can only help with the promotion push I'd think - hopefully he could be a positive influence.

Joe Gallen mentioned signings, plural, leading to a bit of speculation that Marc Pugh is incoming too.

Could be Pugh but possibility it might be Steve Seddon only a hunch

I don't disagree that we need another back-up centre back, but remember that we have Bolton, Naylor & Downing that can play there, in the highly unlikely scenario that we lose 2 or 3 of Jack, Raggs and Nicolaisen. If there is any recruitment for the CB position, it will be a U21 premiership loanee that won't take up a squad space. (That's assuming we won't be able to ship Downing and/or Bolton out, which is looking unlikely).
I can see a scenario where brinkmanship backfires and a club ends up with neither, but not both! Especially when we have a limited squad size.Weybridge wrote: ↑Wed Jan 20, 2021 3:22 pmWouldn't be the first time brinkmanship backfires, and a club ends up with both!jam tomorrow wrote: ↑Wed Jan 20, 2021 12:52 pmNo agree they play in the same position you never know though
I don't see Souttar coming in. I think the club sees the priority as another box-to-box midfielder as competition for Andy Cannon, and that will be where the last remaining squad place will go.

We need Naylor in midfield and Bolton plus Downing will certainly dent any hopes of promotion

Completely agree, but the point is where is the greater priority for that one remaining squad place? IMHO, it's in midfield, not CB. Without the squad cap, it's a different story.jam tomorrow wrote: ↑Wed Jan 20, 2021 6:21 pmWe need Naylor in midfield and Bolton plus Downing will certainly dent any hopes of promotion
