That’s really good news Ellis is signed up and with the acquisition of Leake we look really strong in LB position. Just need to get RB sorted now.Hopefully KVY and Rob Hunt will also stay. Just need a new GK and defence is looking pretty good I think.

But where are the goals coming from? We've shipped out our main goal scorers and left ourselves short of attacking options. Surely we are not expecting a glut of goals from Tovide so relying on Anderson?

I think Leake can also play centre back, which will definitely help once injuries start taking their toll.

I think Tovide is yet to sign a new contract as well so we definitely need at least one new CF hopefully one with a track record of scoring goals but they don’t come cheap. Maybe we are hoping to pick up another loan gem like Mbick. I see Brad Ihovien was released by Peterborough or maybe made available for transfer? not sure but I wouldn’t be surprised if we tried to get him back.

I definately rate Shamal George . Depends if we think Tom Smith is first choice or not and look to bring in a number two. Also whether Tom Smith signs a new contract.

Can always rely on Payne for a few goals.

Samson Tovide not expected to stay. As I thought he is out of contract and interest from clubs at higher level. That leaves just Jayden Williams . We will need to bring in reinforcements hope for some new faces this week.

That looks like is could be a really good signing.He will bring some experience and physicality to the midfield.Just need a 6 ft 6ins CF now perhaps we can coax Peter Crouch out of retirement lol.

DC implied end of last season that the U’s to polite . Teams that got promoted did not have ultrafast wingers, but were more strong and organised, these sides harder to stop playing than manage a winger out the game .

I mentioned young Bradley as a possible before. I think he moved on higher level too soon. It didn’t work out for him at Peterborough but the kid is young and has talent. Did well under DC before could be a good replacement for Samson.

Fell out with Ferguson, and was loaned out end of last season after recovering from major injury .
Not enough experience, we need better .

Providing he is now injury free I would take Brad as a replacement for Samson if he goes( may have already left?).I don’t think he would be too expensive with the potential to move on for a fee again.

I do agree we need an experienced CF as well but they don’t come cheap. I would think we would need a minimum of 3 CFs in the first team squad and at the moment we only have young Jayden Williams who has only one season of senior football behind him didn’t get too much game time then and DC seemed to prefer using him more in the 10 role.

Brilliant signing!!
But beware of season long loan - just hope he's not that good until January window has closed!! I'm sure Danny & Nicky will get the best out of him
Do you think we could do a swap deal with Tovide & Kyrell Lisbie???

Ihonvien will be a very good signing indeed (if his injury problems are firmly in the rear view) and would be a great replacement if Tovide does indeed leave.

As for Tovide going in a swap deal for Kyrell Lisbie it would be nice if it happened but Posh would have to bring in yet another striker with a proven goalscoring record (which is not impossible)

That’s good news at least we have one RB now ( and he can also play DM) I haven’t heard KVY has signed yet . Hopefully he will then we just need a GK and defence sorted. Midfield looking pretty good just need to sort out the attack a LW and another CF ?

KVY was in the starting XI for the first half against Norwich today, so hopefully that's a good sign. There was a trialist in goal too - did anyone see the match?
