Pottsy 0 Posted June 30, 2004 Working on the basic rule which Worthy has always stated, that u need at least two senior players in each position:Green:GallagherEdworthy:BriggsFleming:??????????Mackay:ShackellDrury:BrennanBentley:McveighHolt:FrancisSafri:MulryneHenderson:RiversHuckerby:MckenzieSvensson:??????? Jarvis going out on loanI would say that another striker who can hold the ball up will come in and another defender as cover. People on this board are saying we''ll get in a load of new players but didn''t Worthy state last week that he was gonna try and strenghten the numbers by two or three?Some of u might say what about Zema but even though i''ve always defended him in the past, he is no good in the prem and will only stay if we''re unable to find that target man. I believe the squad needs more than this as this is a top div 1 side but a below average prem squad but i think we have to accept that we won''t be strenghtening our team greatly just thickenining out the squad.

blacko 0 Posted June 30, 2004 Not sure about the Shackell, Henderson Rivers part, but we shall see, keep the faith there is still time for some more additions Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Braintree canary 0 Posted June 30, 2004 I''d have Francis instead of Hendo. Henderson hasn''t got enough experience for the premiership. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DumbleDelia is Magic 0 Posted June 30, 2004 Can''t see Briggs, Shackell, Hendo or Rivers getting much near the first team next year. God, when you look at it like that, our squad seems pretty bloody thin!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Temp the Revelator 0 Posted July 1, 2004 Yes Worthy said 2 or 3 new signings, but he wanted them in before the start of pre-season training - which has obviously not happened. He has previously stated that he wanted 5 or 6 players, and has currently signed 3, so I guess 2 or 3 more would be about right, depending who they are......

Pottsy 0 Posted July 1, 2004 Worthy clearly states two maybe three more signings, i''m sorry but Hendo, Rivers and Shackell will all probably have to play at some point if you''re realistic!!!!!!So what my post is trying to say really is that the next two will a central defender and a striker. Maybe Crouch as soon as Villa tie up Carlton Cole deal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
