Horton and Denton are both good enough to compete at LB. A fully fit rose, Starbuck are good enough for RB. Evans and Jb good enough for CB, but will still need one or two more.
Boyce is passed it and Barrows is nowhere near good enough. Dire need of a keeper. Jones is in a similar bracket to Mahady, but with inferior distribution. Incredible shot topper, but looks unsure on claiming high balls and not too good at commanding his box.
If we get a good, solid keeper and a CB or two…we should be ok at the back.
I think 2 young and mobile CB’s are a must based on all the comments you read and hopefully as a defensive unit because when you watch the goals conceded several times some seem to lose track of ‘their’ man.
As regard Jones in goal it becomes a trait after our coaching, we make line sitters allowed little movement from that line !
Yes they have done amazing but our budget is not the biggest and some offered new contracts may move on due to our limits. And you can understand that. Should the club be fortunate to gain promotion they will obviously gain a bigger solidarity payment but will it be enough.
