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
—————-Macey(if we can sign)———

Totally lacking pace throughout the side.
No doubt we need pace we haven’t had that for a few years I was just trying to look at what we have to build on for next season.
