Looking at that squad it is abundantly clear that we need more defenders. Only 5 defenders on the books and if you look through the midfield the only one who could be considered defensive enough to be a defender is Crooks. That isn't nearly enough in defence.

 

Of the 5 in defence one of them is still in essence a youth. So we have 4 defenders with significant game time - there will be injury and suspension to contend with, not to mention that we clearly need more bodies to challenge the 2 CB's - both Wilson and Kiernan need a challenge to give them the focus to improve - right now they have no competition. We actually could also be doing with at least one more RB and LB too so that we have proper cover in proper positions.

 

I wouldn't mind seeing Ball coming back and playing CB - felt he was better than both Kiernan and Wilson on the few occasions he played there.

I'll be really disappointed if the rumours of Shiels getting another year are true. For me even coming off the bench he hasn't justified it. He may have looked decent coming on at 2/3 nil up at the start of the season but when we needed a change he hasn't provided it.

 

Best shout I hear about him at the cup final was "come on paperweight" .......... sums him up for me.

 

Thanks and all the best should be the next move.

The cry was ... yes, we all know we need defenders, but ... it is May 26th.

 

The transfer window closes on July 31st (or even later for freebies) and has not yet really opened at all. Keep calm and trust the gaffer ;)
