BPAS Posted May 1, 2023 Share Posted May 1, 2023 (edited) And with that, the season is over. This episode was recoded before the triumph / disaster that was Loud, Live and Beefy and Bromley at home in the last game. Andy, Dave and Matt look through the squad as it stands and decide who they think should stay or go...but with a twist.

Dave_Og Posted May 1, 2023 Share Posted May 1, 2023 The B team is a big thing for me. If that gets off the ground properly then I'd expect there to be a couple of extra bodies in the overall squad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeP Posted May 1, 2023 Share Posted May 1, 2023 (edited) I don't know why there's deliberation about keeping our top scorer... ..or Green. Creative, fast and scores goals. Keeping Hope should be less of a priority. Lose Shelton, Couto and (sorry to day it - because he's our best midfielder, if he plays) Gardner. Bare minimum, we need a first-choice right back and midfielder. Edited May 1, 2023 by JoeP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshgaz Posted May 1, 2023 Share Posted May 1, 2023 Wild from Dave saying to get rid of Hogan. He’ll be one of the first names on the team sheet next season. Also think it’s naive to suggest DU won’t go with 2 holding. If we’re playing 2 strikers he’ll almost certainly player 2 defensive minded midfielders. Right back and another central midfielder needed minimum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave_Og Posted May 1, 2023 Share Posted May 1, 2023 Can Shelton do for right back? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right back and another central midfielder needed minimum. Sheron and Shelton are to similar. Gardner is made of biscuits. Rooney isn’t a midfielder. I’d be looking to bring two midfielders in at least- but I said on the retained thread. It looks like he’s largely going with what he’s got. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monty Burns Posted May 4, 2023 Share Posted May 4, 2023 l wouldnt even be classing Edwards, Turner, Luamba and Da Silva as first teamers and would keep them all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since when has a No.10 (Lordy I gate this no. 8/6/10 whatever - harking back to the old days!) not been a midfielder? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at his career stats and the amount of goals he’s scored- he hasn’t done that as a typical midfielder as in a Sheron/Shelton mould. Or a box to box type. He’s played his entire career just off the striker or in advanced midfield position. Call it what you want. But he isn’t a midfielder he’s a forward/attacker.

There was a time when the number on a players shirt indicated the position they played. Not sure about Roger Palmer though as he was a mystery to fans, colleagues and the opposition.
