The Squad 2022-23

[Rockford's Love Child]

It has been suggested by a more reliable source that Davies is going nowhere.

I would imagine the club is keen to register Mumbongo before Saturday, so we can have a striker on the bench.

Seems odd not yet announced, it was on sky sports news website on Monday that he was due to have a medical on Tuesday so would've thought be announced

 

[Goody Two Shoes]

Given the fabled impatience of some supporters, if he doesn’t hit the ground running and hasn’t bagged 20 goals in no time at all it’ll be “Mumbon go”!

 

[Rockford's Love Child]

Looks like a signing is imminent.

 

[Rockford's Love Child]

Mumbongo signs.

1 year contract, welcome aboard Joel

It looks like we have the option of another year as well.

 

[ALDO MUSSY]

good about time

 

[Sparky]

Pleased we have another striker in. Hopefully he can stay fit. It could be a good foil for Hemmings as his size etc may mean defenders pay him attention giving Kane more space

Let’s hope it’s Mumbon-GOAL!

I think that will likely be the last of the permanent signings now unless anyone leaves.
Another striker and cover for right wing back on loan would be likely further signings

Yes, I would agree with that. Probably Glatzel or A.N. Other on loan.

Hopefully we will keep hold of Cogley, as he will be important to the balance of the side with the two wing backs. Any replacement won't be of the same calibre and the system won't be as effective without him.

 

[Higgy]

I hope he's fit enough to start.

 

[Rockford's Love Child]

I think Nevitt will start on Saturday.

I certainly hope Nevitt starts on Saturday, as we've played all pre-season with him up front and despite Hemmings having a better pre-season, there didn't seem to be much to chose between those two at the Huddersfield game. Mumbongo needs to get fully match-fit and would expect him to mainly be used as an impact sub initially.

 

[bring back the cowshed!]

He's had an interesting history, showing a lot of promise but dogged by injury, poor decision making and sheer bad luck. His cv does show him as a very determined and ambitious person. I hope Tranmere is the place where he can fulfill his potential.

the team looks miles better than the last pre-season we had and starting with a very old team and not much up top we look tons better now roll on sat

Thanks, RLC. That's a nice feature. What's reassuring is how much work he has put in and how much he has changed his attitude and lifestyle to become a pro. I think he'll bag at least 10 this season if he stays fit.
