deyres42 Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 From today's chron..... "Much depends on the men he can bring in a right-back, commanding centre-back and centre-forward are among the priorities." Why is a right back a priority? It simply isn't a priority.....! We have 2 contracted full professionals in that position.....! I hope this is just lazy journalism......! Perhaps they don't think the other two are any good and this lad is a better bet?

lookersstandandy Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Perhaps they don't think the other two are any good and this lad is a better bet? Sure... I've posted something similar earlier in this thread and if they do, that's fine..... I'm taking issue with the word 'priority'. It not a priority. If it was.... why on earth did they offer Connor Brrown a contract when they could've let him go.....! I'm hoping its just lazy journalism.

With two centre halves gone I can see Wilson being used there and Brown will compete with Purkiss if he signs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe_lead Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 3 Right Backs isn't that bad, can anyone remember when we had 9 Centre Backs in Football Manager 1995. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lookersstandandy Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 With two centre halves gone I can see Wilson being used there and Brown will compete with Purkiss if he signs. Brian Wilson at centre back? Now I am getting worried.....! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
palmer1 Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Can it be that another manager is trying to find a right back to replace Mr Brown? How many right full backs will that be? Can it be that his improvement from total :censored: to predominantly average just isn't good enough? Brown is here because he is cheap. If a better player is available at the right price why wouldn't you get them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

palmer1 Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Priority? His priority is to improve the squad isn't it? If a better player is available at the right price why wouldn't you get them? Just because one name is linked in the paper does not mean its the priority. It could be one of many irons in the fire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deyres42 Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Brian Wilson at centre back? Now I am getting worried.....! Not hearing much talk of replacements for Elokobi and Lockwood. Think if the season started now and we were going three at the back it would be Wilson, Wilson and Mills Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lookersstandandy Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Just because one name is linked in the paper does not mean its the priority... ...hence my point above....

palmer1 Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 You didn't.... I didn't accuse you of doing so.... it appeared in today's chron! What as a priority? Did anybody mention a new right back as a priority? If not calm down ffs its a month before pre season training starts and 2 before the season kicks off. Does it matter in what order the players sign as long as they sign the right ones!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Richard Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Some people on here make me laugh. 'Here we come league two' 'oh woe is me' 'Can't believe we have been linked with him' It's as if we have a forum of managers, coaches and scouts who seem to know all the qualities and abilities of every single player. People who go very quiet when a signing works out. Why don't said people wait until a signing plays before he is beaten with the :censored:ty stick of despair?

SavageTheBeast Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 The only priority right now should be getting a centre back in. We have one who can play there. Even a striker isn't a main priority with the players who can play in that position Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
