Therefore, here are 5 players they could look at based on YOUR suggestions
Comment your team + 5 positions below! 👇
GK: Luke Southwood
Available on a free following his release from Reading, Southwood will be one of the most sought after keepers in League 1
He played every game for Cheltenham, and I feel a step up to Exeter could be one he handles well. Location works well too
RWB: Oscar Rutherford
This is a really rogue one, but teenager Rutherford had a breakthrough season for Eastleigh, playing both at RW and RB
This leads me to believe he is perfect for the RWB role. He’s got plenty of room to grow, is well placed geographically; shrewd move
CM: Louis Thompson
A player I thought would add experience and energy to the Exeter midfield is Thompson. Available on a free following his release from Portsmouth, Thompson played 17 games in League 1 this season
An energetic operator, the geography also works here too
AM/CM: Albie Morgan
Comfortable on the ball, 23 year old Morgan has been let go by Charlton, despite playing 35 games this season
A player with real quality, Morgan racked up 3 goals and 7 assists. I feel he would add quality to the Exeter midfield, and on a free too
ST: Luke Jephcott
This may not be a popular choice due to his links to rivals Plymouth. However, he’s available on a free, is just 23 years old & has scored 33 goals in last 3 seasons
Location wise it works well & I believe there is a gem in there if they can look past his past

Luke Williams’ latest recruit is attacking midfielder Crowley
He’s especially interesting as he’s spent much of his career in the Netherlands
Here is a thread on the new man, and what we can expect from him 👇
The Key Stats
Age: 25
Height: 5ft9
Last Club: Morecambe
Position: AM (as shown in graphic)
22/23 (League One):
Games: 21
Goals: 2
Assists: 5
1.25 Chances Created per 90
671 passes completed (87% accuracy)
8 tackles won (73% accuracy)
The first thing that catches the eye about Crowley is the speed and quickness of his movement. In particular, how quickly he’s able to manipulate the ball by shifting his feet
Here he completely takes the defender out of the game, opening the space for a perfectly weighted pass
🧵🏴 England play against North Macedonia tonight. England aren’t adverse to former Non-League players, with Mings in the current squad potentially playing tonight
So here is an XI of players in Non-League who I feel could one day pull on the famous 3 Lions Shirt 👇
Owen Foster
Scunthorpe’s 18 year old keeper Foster had a brilliant stint when called upon last season, so much so that he is now going on trial at several Championship clubs
A brilliant shot stopper, Foster has massive potential. Needs the right development
Kellen Fisher
Okay, so Fisher isn’t technically a NL player anymore BUT he only just moved to Norwich, so I’m counting him here
That move says it all for him really - he has genuine potential to be a top right back. He’s already mature beyond his years at 18
Promoted side Sheffield Wednesday were requested yday afternoon. So here are 5 players they could look at based on YOUR suggestions
Remember to comment your team + 5 positions below 👇
GK: Josh Vickers
Wednesday rotated their keepers last season, so you’d expect them to need to add another safe pair of hands
Vickers is exactly that. He’s based fairly locally, so geography works, and he’s shown over a number of years he’s a very capable keeper
CB: Lloyd Jones
A defender I’d like to see make the step up with Wednesday is Jones. He’s been brilliant for Cambridge for a number of years, and is now available on a free
A strong defender, one in his prime at 27, Jones is capable on the ball & would be a cost effective move
