I find it difficult to assess what we need really if everyone was fit

I have to say I would see if there was a more composed keeper around, but if not would stick with Vlad. He scares me constantly but he's miles better than Long, Reyes or even McGovern.

Probably need another CB (assuming we don't sell any of our top 3) to replace Medic. Or buy in a young talent in much the same way we did with Ruari, give Medic the chance to improve and then have the youngster in the wings to challenge for that 4th spot.

Do we sign Reid and keep Topic? Then we would have 3 DMs which is a lot to carry I think (4 including Gibbs). Not including Wright in this as see him more of the next Kenny. More 6 than 8. Kenny will likely leave or retire at the end of next season so if we see another player like that available I think we should get him in to challenge Wright to inherit Kenny's position. We've tried this many times - I think even Forson was initially advertised as a DM?

Strikers - am still not sure how good Toure will end up. Need to see him more. Makama would be good first choice. But I think we do need to replace Kvistgaarden. Just not happening for him. He will do well somewhere but not at Norwich. Will Clement think Crnac can be one of the three strikers?

I'd deffo bring in another left back and try to keep Mahovo fit. I would then consider another (maybe young talent) right back.

To be honest, we tried to do most of these things this season, but then all their heads fell off.

And wingers - We need a couple of proper RW players IMO.

So yeah, I'd say one more CB to increase quality of group, a couple of fullbacks, a right winger and for the rest I'd just be looking at best player available for the budget and strengthen wherever the opportunity arises. If we didn't sign anybody new next season other than RW and FB depth, I'd honestly not be that concerned.

        Agree with that. Makama is the one who might gain interest. (General Chat) - Legacy Fan, Mar 20, 10:17:31
