An in depth thread of Burton Albion and 11 players I think they should sign. They need a big summer and below is how I think they could. (๐งต) #bafc#Burton
Burton Albion currently only have eight players under contract although they have offered new deals to a further eight players.
So with none of them currently confirmed and 3/8 players playing the same/similar position, I am going to go through 11 possible signings I think would suit Burton Albion and help them kick on next season.
Starting with two ๐๐ผ๐ฎ๐น๐ธ๐ฒ๐ฒ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ that I was actually requested to look at two by a Burton Albion fan.
First ๐๐ต๐ฟ๐ถ๐ ๐ ๐ฎ๐ ๐๐ฒ๐น๐น, he has experience and having been released by Blackpool needs a club, I think he will have many clubs after him but if Burton pulled it off he would be a good number one at L1 level
Second option is ๐๐ผ๐๐ถ๐ฒ ๐ ๐ผ๐๐น๐ฑ๐ฒ๐ป. I imagine it would be a loan deal from Wolves as the youngster has impressed with his two loan moves so far in NLS and NL.
Onto the ๐๐ option, they was a couple that caught my eye - but no more than another Blackpool player who was released and thatโs ๐๐๐ธ๐ฒ ๐๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ฏ๐๐๐, experienced and would be a good fit in a team thatโs got one of the better managers in L1 in my opinion.
Now ๐๐๐ weโve looked at two of them with the first one being ๐๐ฒ๐น๐น๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐ช๐ฎ๐๐๐, maybe an outside chance but heโs 23 years old and is looking for regular game time that Newcastle canโt offer him. He played Under Dino at Stevenage so knows him well.
The second ๐๐ I have down is ๐ฆ๐ฎ๐บ ๐ ๐ฐ๐๐น๐ฒ๐น๐น๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ, a very impressive loan at Barrow and has now been released by Chelsea. Very good ball playing CB who I believe will play in the Premier League one day.
The final ๐ฑ๐ฒ๐ณ๐ฒ๐ป๐ฑ๐ฒ๐ฟ I have in my list is recently released ๐๐ฎ๐ป๐ธ๐ฎ๐๐ ๐๐ฎ๐ฏ๐ผ, I think he will drop down a division and it just makes sense to me, get him consistent playing time and heโs one of the leagues best fullbacks.
Onto the ๐บ๐ถ๐ฑ๐ณ๐ถ๐ฒ๐น๐ฑ now and itโs another man who was once tipped to go to the top and itโs recently released Arsenal man ๐ ๐ฎ๐๐๐ต๐ฒ๐ ๐ฆ๐บ๐ถ๐๐ต. Heโs enjoyed loan spells in the past in L1 and the ball playing midfielder would be a welcomed addition.
The wingers were actually hard to pick, but I managed to pick two that I feel make sense who can play inside and outside.
First ๐๐ถ๐ป๐ด๐ฒ๐ฟ is ๐ฆ๐๐น๐น๐ฎ๐ ๐๐ฎ๐ถ๐ธ๐ฎ๐ถ, heโs versatile but also when heโs playing his best football on the wing is a joy to watch, I think Dino could get the best out of Sullay if he was to go to Burton.
The second ๐๐ถ๐ป๐ด๐ฒ๐ฟ is ๐ข๐น๐ฎ๐บ๐ถ๐ฑ๐ฒ ๐ฆ๐ต๐ผ๐ฑ๐ถ๐ฝ๐ผ, heโs had some of his best seasons in L1 and although numbers didnโt show that last season I thought he was a decent player with Lincoln. I think a permanent move to Burton now heโs a free agent would be a sensible move.
I looked at many ๐๐๐ฟ๐ถ๐ธ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ and the two I went with are both young and perhaps risks but I think they would be good signings.
Firstly after the loan of Taylor from Forest last season I think thereโs an opportunity to get another good young ๐๐๐ฟ๐ถ๐ธ๐ฒ๐ฟ on loan from there and thatโs ๐๐ฒ๐๐น๐ฒ๐ณ ๐ข๐๐ผ๐ป๐ด. The 18 year old Striker scored 7 goals in 10 U18 games last season and looks to have a veryโฆ twitter.com/i/web/status/1โฆ
Finally ๐ ๐ถ๐ฝ๐ผ ๐ข๐ฑ๐๐ฏ๐ฒ๐ธ๐ผ, the striker has been released by West Ham but I still feel has a bright future in the game. Heโs had loans in L1 before and think a permanent home would help him perform better.
This was really hard to do - as Iโve tried to stay original and also realistic, whatever business Burton do it needs to be in numbers if the players donโt stay
I expect a big summer and it will need to be for Burton Albion to progress from last season.
Thanks.

The experienced CB who has just suffered relegation with Rochdale is looking for a new club and i think #YCFC would welcome his arrival, heโs a good no nonsense defender and has experience across L1 and L2.
Notts County a look into what else they need this window to become genuine title contenders (๐งต) #ncfc#nottscounty
First of all, the system Luke Williams played last season and tactical approach he took is probably the most in depth tactical approach Iโve ever seen in the National League.
Williams demands his goalkeeper to be comfortable and confident on the ball, itโs the way he plays - playing out from the back was almost unheard of at NL level but it was a demand Williams had.
A thread on #DRFC early start to the window and what I feel is needed to return to League One. (๐งต)
After relegation to L2 in 2022 they had another very poor season last year finishing 18th and not ever putting a run of games together.
I think they big thing I struggled to see was what direction the club was heading in and what sort of team they was. They wasnโt necessarily a possession based team and they lacked the quality to be a counter attacking team, so I did struggle to see what way the club was going.
A very good young goalkeeper who I think needs to play in a system that suits him, and I think what Evatt demands of his goalkeeper would bring the best out of Savin.
Now released by #MUFC and looking to shine elsewhere itโs another player I believe fits Evatts system well, he is comfortable on the ball and can also carry out of defence
A thread on 15 signings I feel would be a good fit for Morecambe - with only six players currently at the club, I did 15 more potential signings - in my opinion my best thread(๐งต) #morecambe#mfc#shrimps
After speaking and taking a deeper dive into Morecambe FC and seeing that Morecambe currently only have six players registered for the upcoming season means theyโll need at-least 15 signings in the next couple of months.

I did a smaller thread with five players and Iโm going to add a further 15 players who I think Morecambe could/should sign - itโs a mixture of experience and youth but I canโt help but feel this isnโt a healthy way of running a club
A player who can operate in numerous positions providing cover across multiple positions is what McCann has signed, similar to a couple of signings now, certainly not a coincidence.
Positions
Coming through the ranks at Newcastle he operated mostly as a midfielder and by the looks of the multiple posts and quotes Iโve seen McCann sees him primarily as a midfielder.
However throughout the season at Gateshead he slotted into CB and performed the position toโฆ twitter.com/i/web/status/1โฆ
