Dr Gloom 19824 Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 just one cornet. oh, give him to me. is he better than what we have? his goal return last season would suggest so, even if he's not quite as exciting as some of the names we've been linked with 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have been sold the project and it will have an expectaion of timelines of when things are happening. They will understand it will take a few years, Botman even said that but they won't be standing around waiting if it isn't to the timeline they've been sold. And TBH at the moment we will be lucky to finish 8th if we cannot add to the teams goal scoring capabilities - regardless I feel the club will have told them a minimum of Europe in some form for 23/24. This would be my concern also. Of course it's all if's and buts at this stage but the supporters, players and manager will all be expecting improvements in our attackers and if that doesn't happen then it will be a bad look to everyone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamTaylor5 650 Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 I don't think that they will have been told we are signing big name players. I think the project is clear to see already. We have a solid back line and it has a bit of depth. The centre of the park is decent. Obviously up front we have our issues. I am hoping the ASM pulls himself together a bit as it would be depressing to see another talent go to waste. I have never 'got' Miggy and obviously Wilson will be out for a few spells. I think we should push Willock a bit further up the pitch as he seems to do better there. I don't think we 'will not sign any more players but I don't think that it would be the end of the world if we don't. Between Pope, Trips, Burn, Botman, Targett, Bruno and even Wood as a back up is impressive. 5/6 improvements to the starting 11. I think it is like people are saying about the sponsorship next year, we will also start to attract other people who will see us at the business end of the table rather than in the business end of the table. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayatollah Hermione 12767 Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 I’m of the theory that we’re probably waiting for certain moves to complete around Europe before we see action. The ripple effect of transfers like that can set loads in motion. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polarboy 2124 Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 (edited) For what Pete Graves opinion is worth as a supposed ITK person, he also reckons that we'll see the rest of our transfer business at the end of the window. Unfortunately it will be a while yet before we can dictate the market and make our moves early. At least when it comes to the more coveted and scarce attacking players.

thebrokendoll 7090 Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 (edited) I wonder if the momentum in ticket sales may have a few alarm bells ringing? from brighton onwards last season tickets for home games sold out in less than 2 hours, it's took over a fortnight to sell out forest and man city tickets hardly left the website like shit off a stick. brighton away still hasn't sold out and is down to 50 loyalty points now. can't imagine the above being the case if we'd assembled something that resembles a strike force by now. unless it's down to wedding season of course?!

They will have been given a timeline of where the club wants to be and without some more goal scoring prowess from the next level up from what we already have, Botman and Bruno will know that what they have been sold will not be meeting their expectations. Everyone can see we need a better class of forwards to make that next step. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayatollah Hermione 12767 Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 Midfield of Bruno-Joelinton-Maddison is absolutely tug-worthy. Shelvey, Willock and Longstaff are fully dependable back-ups as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
