Here's another article from Mackem news which seems to put us as favourites but mentions Triantis has intimated a desire to stay and try to impress the manager.

Wasn't a pop at you, just the rotten cliche talk that "journalists" put out.

Not having a go at you but this might clear things up a bit in clubs can’t just send players where they want , the player also has a say where he wants to go ….

Semenyo stays at the cherries - host of clubs in for him. They’ll be delighted

They’d be unbelievable signings, and would make us a stick on for third in my opinion. I’d be absolutely delighted to get both.

Me too. With what Gray has already pulled together, if we bagged Triantis it would be a Carlsberg moment. If he got those two as well, I'd need scraping off the roof. I don't think we would get them, but I'd love to.

Just hope we can convince Triantis his future is here for the next few seasons.

Can’t believe we actually signed Shankland

Brilliant business

Like that we’re playing in in the development team to get his fitness up

Lmao

Who is our Shankland though really?

Cole Shankland

Despite the great business we have done, we have shipped 4 defensive mids, crucial position for us to fill and fill well. Also the lack of strikers at the club is still a major issue if we plan to qualify for a European campaign past August. We definitely need to be getting a few more players in the door. It’s been good and sensible from team perspective but a striker and cdm needs to happen soon for us to be ready for Europe.

Hoilett oozes class and quality.

A very useful option for another season.

Yup. Important we kept him with Gayle retiring. Massive asset to the squad with his experience and obvious quality.

I’d imagine it’s a bump in wages and Bournemouth will have inserted a more achievable buyout for next summer.

Dunno why Nisbet would. Didn’t exactly rip up any trees.

Is it? We played great football at the end of the season with Hoilett in the team, he's also played for a long time at a higher level than McGrath ever has.

We have signed Mulligan who we described as a defensive midfielder maybe says a bit about how we plan to use him. Manneh is also more or less a new signing and he’s a deeper midfielder as well.

I don’t think the lack of strikers is a major issue at this point. We wouldn’t get through a season with the three we have. But it’s three good options for the start of a campaign and, IMO, anyone coming in is likely to be third or fourth choice.

No info re triantis as yet unfortunately :(

Yeah but we have brought in Mulligan who I think is the player we needed Kwon to be last season. We are probably still in for Triantis or his replacement and we may or may not replace NMW, Kenneh hasn't been in the plans since he got here.

Kwon and Kenneh hardly any loss so wouldn’t really count them. Hopefully Triantis returns obviously!

Senior Bidet? 🤷🏻

Pleased Hoilett has signed. Got to the point where I thought it probably wasn’t going to happen.

Could make a big difference in the European games. So comfortable and good at keeping the ball, something we’ll need to do.

Agreed. Be surprised if he didn't start as No 1.

The last three I would have said were Defensive Mids though I’m not sure I’d have said NMW was one . Two out of the last three we shouldn’t have any trouble upgrading on . Got Newell to come back as well of course .
