Steven Schumacher aiming for three more new signings
- Thread starter Ottawa Green
- Start date
So Shuey has stated he wants 3 players to come in this window - with a forward player definitely being one of them. I’m going to put my neck on the line and say Marquis was not one of Shueys targets. I still think Shuey would have looked back at last season and thought that when Hardie didn’t play or wasn’t fit (towards the end of the season) that we missed pace and someone to run channels the way Hardie does to stretch the opposition. I know many on this forum think we need a different type of forward all together and not a pacey type. But I honestly think that is what we need, as I think of the 3 forwards we’ve currently got that no-one can replace Hardie.
Of the other 2 positions I think one is a RWB to provide cover primarily but of a different style to Edwards and more of a winger RWB who’s capable of beating a man out wide which is different to how Edwards plays.
The other player I think we’ll try to sign is a CB, probably a ball playing type that is comfortable in possession as we always need 2 CB’s of the 3 in the 3-1-4-2 formation to be able to begin a move from the back and also be able to play through a press which I saw increasing opposition managers try to play against us as the season went on.
We’ve heard one is just about over the line, so hopefully that will be tied up this week and Shuey gets his man - I’m confident in our recruitment this window and am already pretty pleased with the 2 signings we’ve made to date 👍👍

If Cooper or Camara leave then we can expect more than 3 signings.
I‘d like to see Broom return, but not Garrick. Despite scoring some important goals last year, Garrick didn‘t look that good to me.
