Current Players Thread

10 international call ups. 8 to senior squads
Good for club profile and the individuals of course but for us, Nuno has 2 weeks to reset the rest of them but there will be plenty missing.

I would sleep easier at night if Wood didn’t have to fly around the world to face the mighty Vanatu and Samoa.

Presume Anderson has pulled out as he wasn’t on the listed players

[Reds73]

Seems a few on the players regularly called up haven’t been this time.

Anderson, Taiwo, Boly, Omabamidele

Brilliant, thanks for sharing that. Every kid in every football academy should study Ryan Yates.

Where do we think we'll target in January? Got to think we're going to have better options than last summer due to the good start, Edu etc.

Presumably will target strikers again or maybe wide forwards that can play CF. Where else do we need?

I'd probably say left back and Keeper although perhaps it will be tough to get a good keeper on a perm in January.

We desperately need another striker

What has happened to Taiwo?

I don't want to sound harsh but I have just about given up on him.

He went from looking like Fashnau when he first arrived and then turned into Stan Collymore and now he has gone to looking like Rob Rosario.

I think we need 2 new Strikers.

Taiwo hasn’t played well since August 23 IMO.

Wood is playing out of his skin but is 33 in a few days time. He shouldn’t be viewed as a 90 min player.

We need 2 new strikers and no nonsense about whoever comes in will be 3rd choice. There is a first choice spot there for the taking whoever comes in. Just depends on the budget, suspect we can get a loan with a buy option.

He seems happy here and playing every week. Would think its pretty unlikely he would be in a hurry to leave. Same goes for Wood and probably CHO too.

Ward-Prowse.

Discuss.
