Slim Posted August 4, 2022 Report Posted August 4, 2022 That’s Morris confirmed on a 4 year deal. Quote
Jute Posted August 4, 2022 Report Posted August 4, 2022 As I have already said do not get brining in another right winger. Were other positions that needed covered first. Quote
manc_don Posted August 4, 2022 Report Posted August 4, 2022 Can Kennedy play on the left? I mean, he sounds like an exciting player and it shows how highly the club regard him by the length of the deal, but seems an odd move. Regardless, looking forward to seeing what he can do. Quote
Panda Posted August 4, 2022 Report Posted August 4, 2022 So now that Morris is here (and as pointed out by Manc_Don, Kennedy can play left too) our squad depth is:- GK: Lewis, Roos LB: Coulson, Mackenzie, Hayes LCB: Scales (McCrorie I guess) RCB: Stewart, Bates, McCrorie, Milne RB: Richardson, McCrorie CM: Ramadani, McCrorie, Polvara, Barron AM: Barron, Besuijen LW: Hayes, Watkins, Coulson, Miovski, Besuijen, Kennedy RW: Morris, Roberts, Kennedy, Duk, McLennan, Duncan, Miovski, Besuijen CF: Miovski, Ramirez, Duk, Morris, Harvey So, first choice XI and first choice back ups? Left sided defender and Connor Ronan and I'm happy. Quote
Elgindon Posted August 4, 2022 Report Posted August 4, 2022 Anyone know how much we paid for Morris? thought i saw £500k mentioned somewhere,surely not.... Hopefully draw a line under the Ronan link this week,with an alternative lined up if no go.... Quote

I still see Barron as a deeper lying center mid, no? Definitely want Ronan and a decision with wolves keeping him or not is any day now I read.. Where does Morris play? Winger or forward? Don't think we signed 3 out and out forwards in Morris, Miovski, and Duk. Thinking all can either play wide too or #10... Quote

As a proponent of a 4-4-2 diamond, I'd actually like to see him alongside McCrorie with Ramadani behind them, the sparkling No10 in front of them, and two up front. Coulson and Richardson could overlap and provide the width. Doubt we'd ever lose a game again to be honest. 2 Quote

Truth be told, can't remember where he played when he was introduced on Sunday. Think he was central. The reason I say he doesn't look like a winger, is because he appears to have quick feet, but doesn't look that fast. I also thought his tracking looked a little suspect. Sort of guy you could leave quite high up and maybe sacrifice in the games where possession is hard to come by. That is just a prediction from the cameo against the Tims though, but I like to go out on a limb early to give me the best chance of being proven wrong. Quote

manc_don Posted August 5, 2022 Report Posted August 5, 2022 I see we’re being given a scouse loan for the season. Leighton Clarkson. Quote

OrlandoDon Posted August 5, 2022 Report Posted August 5, 2022 1 hour ago, tlg1903 said: We defo need a bit more depth in midfield A bit more??! That’s being kind. we have one legit central midfielder, and he’s new and unproven and hasn’t played in Scotland before. Mccrorie is showing he should be a central midfielder but will get moved around. Barron just came through 6 months ago and is now a very young and inexperienced player with plenty of expectation and demands being placed on his young shoulders. Totally feel polvara should be going out on loan. crazy that we had a log jam at center mid last year, now we don’t have enough (yet??) enough! Quote
RicoS321 Posted August 6, 2022 Report Posted August 6, 2022 Leighton Clarkson, or Jim as he's known to his friends, apparently coming on loan from Calvin Ramsay FC. Hopefully we'll ship a few out soon. We seem to be building a big squad and there'll likely be a few duds included so best to keep things a bit lighter and let some of our own youth fill the gaps.

manc_don Posted August 6, 2022 Report Posted August 6, 2022 Confirmed by the club now . Seems to be highly rated Quote
Panda Posted August 6, 2022 Report Posted August 6, 2022 Can he play LCB? Good to see a great historic name like Leighton rather than Jayden, Hayden or Shayden. If he's any good hopefully it's a Dylan Levitt situation and we can snap him up permanently. Jurgen Klopp owes us one after Danny Ward. Quote
BigAl Posted August 6, 2022 Author Report Posted August 6, 2022 Hope this isn't a sign that Barron's injury is more serious than originally thought. That aside welcome to AFC Leighton Quote
Elgindon Posted August 6, 2022 Report Posted August 6, 2022 Does this signing knock the Ronan deal on the head.? Not sure this is the final wolves squad for '22/'23(27 players listed) https://www.premierleague.com/clubs/38/Wolverhampton-Wanderers/squad Quote
