Hope we can additionally replace both Mason and Sheron and send them back to their clubs. Yeah, Foley was quite Hodson-eque in terms of the range of positions he could cover. At least Flynn is back, and the CM area doesn't look quite so light when we're playing 4-4-2. Agree on the other two, too. Quote

It's as if he wants to try and build a team that will lead into next season and both Flynn and Foley are not part of that plan. I believe that if it were not for Flynns injury, he would have been in the starting lineup from the off, though as the manager tries to now build a team with pace and Flynn, who was covering a now occupied right back role, it would be difficult to bring him back in and expect it to click. I do however think he is a useful player to have in our squad for the remainder of the season. If Foley goes this window, you would think Sheron should also be called back to Fleetwood too surely, unless we don't have a terminate of loan clause in place. He's almost the forgotten man. I will eat my words. What a sensational performance last night. Did not look out of place after being out so long. I'd keep him in the starting lineup for Saturday. Quote

I'd keep him in the starting lineup for Saturday. While it looks like Foley is away, after his performance last night, I’d like to think Flynn is still in the manager’s plans for next season.A calm level head for the younger guys to learn from on the pitch, and tI’m sure he’s a good guy to have in the dressing room too.

Also thought his fitness was excellent since he hasn't played since last season. Find out on Monday how good or bad he may be. Quote

djchapsticks Posted January 31, 2021 Report Posted January 31, 2021 Mutterings of Connor Sheilds being someone we're potentially looking at on a pre-contract along with Killie and Dundee Utd. Goodwin worked with him at Alloa and he's got 9 goals in 17 this season for a relatively poor QotS team. Quote

If we went into next season with Obika, Dennis, Brophy & Shields I’d be very happy. Big German TBC I suppose but get the feeling Erwin might drop out the pecking order. Quote

Especially with younger guys at the start of their career...I mean look at Kevin Nisbet's record before Raith Rovers picked him up...8 goals in 70 games and 6 of those were at league 2 level and now he's getting £3m bids thrown about for him.

RossCSmfc Posted February 1, 2021 Report Posted February 1, 2021 (edited) For me, Obika is our most effective striker and played a very important part of our success this season. It would be madness to let him go at this stage. I expect Brophy to become our number one striker when he gets up to speed but I can't see him being involved in more goals than Obika does. Dennis is still a bit of an unknown quantity but has showed some promise in the last couple of games but I would definitely be concerned if we were going ahead without that option.
