Signings

[Neves wolf]

I was just wondering if this is the most amount of players we have ever signed in 1 transfer window. What is the most we've signed in 1 window?

 

[Lincoln-WOLF]

I just can't get my head around all these player's signing yet only 1 senior player and one development player have left!

I was thinking this as well. Surely some will be sold as it will be impossible keeping all the players happy

 

[North West Wanderer]

I struggle keeping up with the squad.

 

[Tony]

Barry Fry comes to mind!

 

[Floyd Man]

There would have been a couple of seasons in the early '90s when we brought in a fair few players. Don't know the numbers, but I don't think it would have been as many as this.

 

[JOSWolf]

**** it. I love a big squad. No loan window and more to come, hopefully.

 

[Lincoln-WOLF]

I love a big squad too! Just not used to it! Over the years our second string in cup games has been very weak and young. Now, we have over (?) 22 senior players who are capable

too many midfielders?

7 into 3 if Saiss joins. That seems fine. Maybe let Evans go out on loan to a Championship side.

it was more satorical bearing in mind posters were moaning that we had too many not so long ago.... we have even more now & all is well

Yep I think it's only sensible to have a bigger squad affording injuries/suspensions and a hectic schedule ahead without a loan window. Not just in terms of quantity though, we have some serious quality/competition in there now. Definitely think we need another centre half of starting quality though and clearly Zenga is in agreement with that.

Of course its is by a long shot, its a new day, a new dawn and we are just along for the ride. Where will it take us, out of apathy and mediocrity.
There may be price to pay down the line but if we want Premiership and not Championship then we have little or no choice but to believe the owners want what we want.

 

[wwbug]

One of the reasons for so many coming in is that we had a very small squad of players that could compete in the Championship.

Not enough quality midfielders.

It's probably the most we've ever needed in one window though..

 

[de wolf]

Exciting times.

 

[Tring Wolf]

It sure beats having no fit senior left-back and one striker.

All we've really done is redress the imbalance caused by the neglect of the January window.

Some will leave but I think the biggest exodus will be in January once we establish who isn't getting regular game time.

 

[Guzeppi]

Rotation, rotation, rotation.
Until the Senior squad is above 25 players, of which ALL are going to be playing some games or on bench, there is no need for anyone to leave.
It's not as if Zenga hasn't been clear. How many times does he have to say it for it to sink in? What do we want? An injury which leaves us up poo poo creek with no paddle? Dicko, Zyro, EEL, and importantly Graham, all coming back. We're almost there. The only ones who will be moved on are the ones not willing to be part of this project.

"Run with winners become a winner, run with losers become a loser". Everyone in the squad will benefit, the more quality that is added to the squad. Even players considered to be average will start to amaze us.

 

[E is for idiot.]

From a personal standpoint that was more a squad balance thing. Jackett liked a small squad but he filled it with midfielders, had almost no cover in defence or up front. Now we are going for a rotation policy then it is a different scenario. We still however need more cover at the back and up front though.

Mick made a lot his first window in the premier didn't he

Hahnemann
Halford
Milijas
Zubar
Surman
Mancienne
Castillo
Maierhofer
Doyle

That's nine not sure if I'm missing anyone so we may have only equalled out transfer window record so far.

 

[Guzeppi]

Actually seeing another post in another thread, we are getting to have a larger squad than I thought. Can only assume that some players are not even being considered. the two that come to mind are obviously Williamson (permanently crocked more's the pity) and Byrne, (not looked at yet, not even with the junior teams).

You can see every signing from every window since 2009 on the transfer window summary thread DaviesWolf.

Here's the link.

Well said, forgot about Castillo, but as you say so far, still time.

 

[ShropshireLad]

I liked Castillo and Milijas. Milijas was a smoker, though, and "didn't put a shift in". Pity Mick had that view as he was a wonderfully creative player. That goal he scored at Spurs which won us the match was excellent. He could ping a ball but couldn't run around like a blue-***** fly. Castillo was steady at the back and worked well down the wing. What a a waste; I don't know why Mick didn't like him.
