We’re getting closer on a playmaker I’m told, but I don’t have a name
Cheers mate - much appreciated as always. You’d have thought players would want to get sorted as early as possible so they get a full pre season under their belts.

Let's hope whoever it is they are better than the last supposed playmaker we signed!!!!

It's the spelling and the pronunciation that's making you hesitant isn't it!

You going to give us a hint then if you know?
Would be interested in Sherring, but a lot of interest to beat there, including Wrexham.

The squad is starting to take shape nicely. I know we keep saying how we are lacking a creative “playmaker”, and it sounds like we are going to get one, but how will he fit in given the options we already have in midfield and attack? There’s going to be some hot competition for places and there’s going to be some unhappy players.

I think the club want more depth. How many times last year did we look at the bench and think, god there’s nothing on there to change a game?

Very true mate - we’re going to have some serious quality in reserve at this rate!

Really looking forward to seeing who we bring in on loan. Our track record in this area is red hot, we have had some exceptional players recently.

Sherring seems like exactly the sort of player we should be after. I have not looked at his numbers yet, but everyone who has seen him play regularly seems to rate him very highly. Would love to see a player like that signed on a 3 year deal, giving us a real chance at enhancing a then valuable asset (not sure a player would want that though, as assume they would back themselves to progress faster up the pyramid).
Agree we would benefit from a playmaker. Especially when we play Mcwilliams and Fox who are both midfield destroyers. The big question will be though, can we get such a player on the ball regularly with it as his feet? Thats something I am yet to see with this management, but hoping we can see more of this year.

Ok, so I'm putting two and two together here (although likely to be getting five! ), but I assume that this is a clue as to the club involved in this deal.

[Development squad players Nathan Holland, Jayden Fevrier, Bernardo Rosa, Amadou Diallo and Ossama Ashley and scholar Isaac Evans will also depart on 30 June when their contracts expire.] Hollands gone to Mk, but if true would be one of these I guess. Edit : As it's quiet, Rosa, Diallo and Ashley are all midfielders/wingers - which could mean fitting within the playmaker category. Rosa came off the bench for the friendly last year, Ashley was on the bench but can't see that he made it onto the pitch. Rosa's also got his own website, - https://www.bernardorosa.com/ - so props for his agent there. Definitely would fit into the playmaker category, but I'm probably reading too much into this now.

I would doubt that players being released would be taken to the training camp in Scotland.

Me too, but we've often allowed released players to continue training with us so who knows. Mind you, we are well and truly in guesswork territory here, aren't we?
