This guy is nowhere near a cover for VDV.He is a cheap cover for the LCB position for when VDV gets injured. Just as Dragusin is really a RCB to cover Romero Tosin is very quick CB so can be a pound shop Van Der Ven. I don’t mind this if it means we spend more on attack and midfield.
When it comes to squad it’s not just about good players it’s about suitability, Tosin is suited to a high line, he isn’t great but he fits the system and fitting the system is critical.
hopefully we make at least 2 class signings this coming window to push onContinuity stupidity.

It's probably best if I just stay out of this thread.I can't post link of a Bild story as I have ad blocker but we are supposed to be interested in Leeds' Summerville.
Bayer Leverkusen have joined Liverpool and Tottenham in the race to sign Leeds United's Dutch winger Crysencio Summerville, 22. (Bild)
Crysencio Summerville - Wikipedia
en.wikipedia.org
22yo. Dutch. 17 in 37 this season.
Watched Leeds a couple of times but did not notice him.
Haven't seen masses of championship football this season but Dewsbury Hall has looked one of the best from that division I've seen (along with Archie Gray and Crysencio Summerville). The latter maybe an outside shout as a decent left wing option.
Quick idea of how we might be looking next season in terms of overseas players for Europe.
Prob space for 2 overseas players straight away and then sort of 1 in 1 out if we get offers for players like Royal/Richy/Kulu etc. Obv don't have to fill out the whole 17

Can't see us keeping Sess if his deal runs out and could see us selling Davies if a decent offer came in. Not sure what will happen with Forster but I reckon it'll either be him or a similar HG ancient backup keeper in that spot

One of our association players needs to be removed from the UEFA list.
Think we will be moving both Sess and Davies and possibly Solomon. That gets us 4 slots, plus maybe KWP as a club trained for depth. Would be very cautious about signing squad players like Tosin and Solomon. Need to try and improve the first 11.

Yeah I know but that was before his ankle injury that has seen him out for the last couple of months, which is why I said I'm not sure what will happen with him. Club might decide they want better backupForster signed an extension back in December until summer 25.
