The last 3 times I've attended training Jake has not been there.
When I saw him training by himself I thought he was on the long road back, hope the lad hadn't had another set back, lets hope not.

Shame really, think he was/is a very tidy footballer and moves the ball well. Would be an asset to the midfield fully fit. Saw more from him in that brief time before the injury than Akpan and Anderson. Hopefully dropping down a level and playing in a more confident team may boost their ability.

I suggest injuries, a toxic atmosphere and a complete amateurish set up last season will have not helped anyone impress. He has much to prove to us but I have no doubt he can handle League 2. -

Akpan seemed to pick up temporarily last year when the fitness guy joined from Spurs. It meant we let Jim O’Brien leave. Then his form dipped.

As it stands I would play this:
---------------ODonnell-------------
Mellor--POC--BRC--Longridge
-------Anderson----Palmer-------
Scannell------McCartan--------
------Vaughan----Donaldson----
Subs:
Hornby
AOC
Henley
Akpan
Gibson
Ismail
Doyle
Squad:
Wood, Riley, French, Devine, Reeves (play when fit), Patrick, GSK
Personally, think that looks really strong with plenty of options across the bench and remaining squad.
It would be a little bit lopsided playing with 1 winger in Scannell. Longridge may be able to play the Meredith role covering the whole of the left flank, he certainly seems to be quite attacking best on his stats? That would allow us to play a 3rd centre midfielder who could get forward (think McCartan might surprise a few) and also 2 strikers. -
The problem with that team is that McCarten hasn't kicked a ball yet, so will he be match fit in 2 weeks?

I mean, clubs sign kids for U12 squads these days and keep them around until their 16. But not sure if that means they are home grown, if they make it to the pro levels then come back later in life like Donaldson has. He was released at 16, signed for Hull and stayed until he was 21. So technically if it is an exact copy of the UEFA rule, I'd say his home grown at club would be Hull. -
We STILL lack 'bite' in a reliable holding midfielder. That hole alone could prove costly, come May. 10 points dropped, rather than gained ?
STILL time to go, and I'm sure GB and the Management are doing all they can, as I write. With some important friendlies to come, and 2 weeks left ...... lots can changeStop hovering to collapse... Click to collapse... Hover to expand... Click to expand... -
I’d like a couple more signings but I won’t be overly concerned if we don’t get anyone else in. I think our squad is good as it stands. Granted there are a few areas that are weaker than I’d like (mainly CM and LW) but we have options there and maybe GB thinks he players we have are more than capable to do the job.
Overall though the starting lineups that are being posted in this thread look very good for L2 IMO. -
