New player is...

Declan Drysdale 20yo CB on loan from Cov. Welcome Declan.

Will admit , I thought any incoming defender would be experienced. All our CB options are very young.

Anyone know anything about Declan? Not sure he’s made any League appearances anywhere yet.
Coventry paid Tranmere compensation for Drysdale so both clubs rated him.A two and a half year deal in January appears to point to a player with potential.
 
I’m intrigued who our last signing will be.

I know he’s not always completely upfront about who we are after. But SE has repeatedly said he’s waiting on a Prem manager to give the go ahead on a signing. I thought that would be a young loan defender.

But now it appears it’s the forward left side player. Also meaning probably a loan. We won’t be signing permanents from EPL teams I doubt.

That would give us 6 loanees. Only 5 can be in the squad, but doubt that’s an issue. Even the 5 we currently have probably won’t all be in the squad together.

Any names out there to look out for?
Apparently 6ft 5in, and is a good tackler into the bargain!
 
Some very encouraging comments from cov fans on twitter. ' promising player,' 'could play at champ level', 'impressed in preseason,', 'our white van dijk', 'will play in the prem one day' etc.
 
I’m not even sure that we have an obvious starting eleven.
So many good players for so few places.
I’d say that the only nailed on starters at the moment are Bonham, Jackson, Ogilvie and Samuel. Maybe Tucker as well.
