Two new keepers please who are commanding and organise the defence.
Our current pair don’t say a peep and has been part of problem that is our defensive frailties.
He had his detractors but Dylan Phillips was not shy and retiring.

Keillor Dunne is the exact type of player we need. There isn’t an abundance of that type of player available this year, I imagine there would be strong competition, we would have to move early, but I can see it happening.

Doubt we will get two new keepers but I agree with your comments….👍 I would love to see a new Six Foot eight keeper coming and clearing out all in front him before catching everything thrown into our box…..🤣🤣 We haven’t defended properly all season but can you remember either of our keepers making the amount saves proportionally to the amount of goals we have let in…….🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

Nathan Jones “We will come out of this window significantly stronger then we go into it.”
I would hope so!

Nathan Jones “We will come out of this window significantly stronger then we go into it.” I would hope so! Yeah and Adkins pointed at the Hull players celebrating the Championship and said that it would be us ‘next year!’ Let’s see what happens over the summer. It is inconceivable, however, that our squad could be weaker than what we have now!

My gut feeling is NJ would have had assurances when he took over that he would have final say on who is brought in…..I very much doubt that was the case with Adkins, Holden and Appleton……that’s the big difference for me……..Rumour has it he had a big say in bringing in Small and Ramsay…..so if that was the case it does bode well moving forward into the summer as these two along with May are the only settled areas we have in this team IMO…..

To be fair we have no idea what assurances Jones was given, list like we have no idea how much say any of the other managers had.

No we don’t, hence the gut feeling comment……but I just can’t see someone of NJ’s pedigree and personality coming in and being dictated to on who he needs to build a promotion challenging team Understandably I think we are all conditioned over the last few years to expect a recruitment drive that we all don’t agree with….but I get the feeling the owners want to build something here and let’s be honest unless we do bring in the calibre of quality signings required the bums on seats at the valley will only get worse next season…..and the owners will be well aware of this…

Wiredu back at the valley would be brilliant imo Wiredu's genuinely the top midfielder in League One for successful tackles this season, but don't let the Dobheads hear facts like that!

I understand that Jones will have a cushty budget in the summer and when I ask what kind of path we are going to go down to enable us to launch a serious bid next season, the Ipswich model keeps being referred to.

Can we steal Connor Chaplin off them then…..….he would be perfect for our new number 10……🤣🤣 Would imagine targets are already being lined up and agents spoken to……I think this summer will differ from previous recruitment processes…….An Ipswich promotion budget to go with Pompey’s strategy of getting the squad together quickly will be NJ’s aim…..and no dodgy Man City loan players……🤣…….in fact if they ain’t in the Rak Saki quality bracket of loans I don’t see many loans coming in at all…..NJ wants to coach his own players and not other clubs unless they will significantly improve us…..The likes of Chen Campbell etc……I can’t see happening this summer Its going to be an interesting June/ July…..

Think we may also need to keep an eye on players who NJ has coached previously so look out for talent possibly coming in from the likes of Luton, Southampton and Stoke……just a hunch on my part…….I think he just likes what he likes…….

Who, REG and Gillesphey?….major overhaul required…..no leader/s at the back, I’ve been banging on about this for the whole season, result 65 goals against us……..Think NJ will bring in a CB captain plus one other CB …Bradley is prime example of what we require

I don't think we can ignore the potential of the loan market. However, I do think we need to be more picky with who we bring in. Portsmouth built on the squad they finished the previous season with and, amongst other signings, augmented that squad with four loan players, three from Premier League clubs and one from Norwich City, with the latter by far the most successful. Only in exceptional circumstances is it possible to know in advance that loan players are going to be a big success though. You don’t know if you’ve got a Gallagher or a Rak Saki, for example, until they’ve played half a dozen games. While it’s obvious from the league table which clubs have been successful, it’s often less obvious why. Arguably, the key to Portsmouth finally converting their potential into promotion to the Championship was the inspired, but entirely left field decision to appoint John Mousinho as Manager. He had no CV to speak of but apparently Portsmouth’s CEO and Sporting Director were completely blown away when they interviewed him. A brave decision that has really paid dividends.

Out of interest what do you think they mean by the Ipswich model? I assume it’s their version of buying the league, though Ipswich didn’t spend as much on fees as people assume - they offered high wages though.
