Get Ennis gone, loan for Tezgel, get in RB, AM and a striker and it’ll be a good window

If Pelach is going to insist on the 442 then its quite obvious what we need. Two strikers, a cm and rb bare minimum. Tez and Ennis obviously nowhere near it and need to go on loan. Meaning we only have 2 strikers at the club and one of those (Gallagher) doesn’t look capable of more than 10 appearances a season. If Cannon gets injured then we dont currently have a single striker capable of playing at this level.

Junior has improved recently and we have Wilmot who can easily move across and play there if necessary. We need to try and find a permanent centre forward if possible, but January is notoriously difficult.

If junior gets injured for any length of time I don’t fancy having Wilmot or Gouch as our right back for an extended period. I’d like to see if we can find someone like Enda for the right hand side for 6 months

I don’t think we need to be signing players as cover in case someone gets injured. That’s where you need versatile players who can step in. Looking ahead, next season we will need replacements for Cannon and Moran, ideally we need to be looking to get permanent players in these positions instead of sticking plaster short term solutions.

www.stokesentinel.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/stoke-city-transfer-narcis-pelach-9719958“He does bring good names,” said Walters. “He did the same at Norwich. He’s coached some very good players when he was younger who are now playing at a high level. They all really like him and we’ve had players asking to come here, which is good and it’s a matter of whether we can do it. They know what he’s like and what he produces. There are names that people won’t have heard of, similar to what he did at other clubs. That’s a good thing.”

I don't think Schumacher had any say last summer (whereas January window he did) I'm not sure I buy that mate and if he didn't I'd argue it's probably best he's no longer at the helm. I struggle to think when the leadership team sit down with a remit of the type of players we want to sign the coach wouldn't be able to put forward some suggestions at least. Ashley Phillips on loan for example......

Thing is they don't lead the recruitment process, they contribute whereas the old school manager would be the key decision maker. If Pelach says he would like a player and he doesn't fit in with the profile of player set by the SD it won't happen whereas if Neil (for example) said he wanted a player the club would support his choice if the money was available.

Walters statement is saying he's 'bringing names', I'm sure Schuey did the same. Difference will be that he told Schuey to fuck off and they're 'considering' Pelach's instead. In the new setup, I'm sure the manager doesn't have that much say but Pelach will be influencing the discussion

No but given Pelach lack of credentials suspicion would be he was someone who would take the job despite that Looking at Watford theres no chance their managers get a say on recruitment there

I don't think Schumacher had any say last summer (whereas January window he did) Probably because he wasn’t our manager/HC. Our manager/HC’s have always had a big input. No problem with it being a nuanced approach JD bought in players with an eye on the future AN bought in crap journeymen he’d worked with previously who hold no future value and long-standing liability. I hope we never go back to a one dimensional approach.
