Looking at who we have signed up for next season who is good enough to build around
Goal keeper
We have none on the books other than Toby Stewart so obviously that needs addressing I’ve liked Macey and if there is a deal to be had we should be looking to bring him in and is probably good enough.
Defence
Rafferty - good enough for a top 6 side
Swanson - good back up to rafferty
Ogilve - probably good enough
Hume - not really sure why he was brought in so if we can move him on I would
Vincent- doing well in non league not sure if he is ready for the step up
Raggett- a good mid table centre back nothing more if we are looking to push on I’d sell if we can
Towler- the more he plays the better he becomes could be a big year for him next season
Mnoga - non league/ league 2 at best at the moment
Midfield
Pack - is good but needs others to do his running so he can concentrate on pulling the strings
Morrell - is good enough demands the ball and he isn’t afraid to get physical
Lowery - early season form shows he’s very good but him and Morrell are so similar so need to be in a 433
Jewitt-White - not seen much of the lad so couldn’t comment
Forwards
Bishop - where would we be without his goals needs pace around him but a decent goal scorer at this level
Lane - I liked what I saw from him yesterday not match sharp but played on the right will improve with game time
Hacket - low wages squad player use for cup games not a starter
Loans they all go back with the exception of Macey
End of contracts
Robertson- go to injury prone
Curtis- if we can sign him up and get him back to his best a front 3 of Curtis, bishop and lane looks good for starting line up
Freeman - what a waste of wages
Jacobs- to injury prone
Oluwayemi - keep low wages good enough as back up
Tunni - 50/50 on him personally think his up term in performance is due to contract running out and will go back to type after signing a new one
Reid - can’t catch a break with injury let go
Mingi - I quite like him won’t be on big wages good for cup games and squad player
Thompson- if we can sign him up he’s our only midfield destroyer also be on lowish wages
Don’t think I’ve missed anyone but in a 433 its not massive whole sale changes needed but no squad depth and we need a creative midfielder which we haven’t had since Gary Roberts
