How on earth are we going to cram all these new players into our team? I suppose the formation will depend on whoever the next head coach is (or perhaps what chat gpt suggests) but I wonder if we start thinking about a 541 with a diamond midfield:
Ravizzoli
Grimmer Low Hagelskjær Bradley Harvie
Westergaard
Lowry Berry
Humphreys
Kone
And that team doesn't even include Scowen or Fred!! Maybe Fred goes back to right wing back, like during the Championship season?
We can definitely rotate really well now! Even with Sads out, Berry should be an able left-sided wide player. We should be able to see strong 90 minutes without missing a beat, and also rotate from Sat-Tues without a problem.
The weird thing about this season is that if we get promoted, it no longer feels "against the odds". Nothing wrong with that, and we all saw it coming eventually, but there are no excuses now (apart from the extended efforts to get Scandanavian wonder-coach in).
I’m beginning to feel that we’re building for next season already while going in for promotion this year.
You take the players we have on loan out of the side, those whose contracts are ending and some whose ages aren’t getting younger and these new permanent signings start filling those spaces.
On paper all of them are very good league 1 players if we stay in league 1, or should do a job in the championship.
Fred played left wingback during the Championship season with (ironically) Jason McCarthy on the right. Not necessarily the whole season of course but certainly at least towards the end. I have an abiding memory of Fred falling on top of a prostrate Harry Kane on the touchline in front of the main stand and getting up with a big smile on his face.
If we don't get promoted it will be very disappointing, we have been flying since the third game of the season, and have now strengthened the squad beyond out wildest dreams. I never thought I'd say this, but I am expecting Wycombe to get promoted to The Championship. Strange times.
agree with back 5 but no way would i start Leahy or Bez ....replace Bez with new Bez and Leahy with Westergaard...Leahy good squad player but not starter imo

Well I know that's not true as I just red the first page.
Anyway Berry just signed so ....
If not to stay with Wycombe, then The King deserves far better than Hull or Luton

I don’t Lowry will be match fit for a while - very few games played this season

If the data is correct, of course!

Was Fred not left wing back, for starters?
And we're surely not dropping Scowen or ditching wide forwards.
He was, as I mentioned in my post at 12.41 am, a post which attracted someone’s disapproval for some unfathomable reason.
Here’s an updated squad list. Maximum you can have is 22.
Danny Imray is U21 this season.
If we don't get promoted it will be very disappointing, we have been flying since the third game of the season, and have now strengthened the squad beyond out wildest dreams. I never thought I'd say this, but I am expecting Wycombe to get promoted to The Championship. Strange times.
The dastard, leave my Micra alone!
I did wonder what was ironic about McCarthy playing on the right, but I kept that to myself.
If his name was McLefty maybe.
Why the heck would we go to 5 at the back with a holding MF in front? It'll be the same system with even more relent at our disposal.
A back 3 would solve the conundrum of who to leave out of 420k newbie, Bradley and Lowe, but utterly leaves a huge amount of attackers redundant.
Plus Berry is a wide player so wouldn't suit him playing central either.
I would stick with 4-2-3-1 and our new signings need to prove themselves.
Rav
Grimmer/Kodua, Low, Sonny, Harvie
Scowen, Leahy
Fred, Humphries, Lubala
Kone
Subs - Bishop, Hagelskjaer, Berry, McCleary, Bakinson, Westergaard, Udoh
Skura and Butcher to drop out from Mansfield
Lowry having not played a game for over a year and only just signed would not make the bench.

I would go:-
Rav
Grimmer/ Kodua, Low, Sonny, Harvie.
Scowen, Westergaard
Fred, Humphreys, Berry.
Kone.
Subs:- Leahy, Bishop, Hagelskjaer, McCleary, Udoh, Lubala, Butcher.
This 👍
Not sure Westergaard will be fit enough to start games yet. I suspect will get 20/30 mins in both the next 2 games.
I think Berry will start on Saturday though.
