The season 25-26 squad thread 10:22 - Apr 13 with 26168 views | ngbqpr | *July 28th updated...* I have included dev squad players who had first team minutes last season but not those (eg Tuck or the lad from Aberdeen) who've had pre-season minutes as realistically we won't know til we see the bench on Aug 9 if any of them are genuinely in the frame...I've made an exception with Esquerdinha unless / until we sign another LB. I have now bracketed Lloyd and Dixon Bonner away from the main list due to strong rumours of loan / departure...and also Richards, as he seems to have disappeared again. GKs Nardi / Walsh / Salamon CBs JCS / Morrison / Cook / Mbengue FBs Dunne / Adamson / Larkeche / Esquerdinha Midfield* Chair / Dembele / Field / Madsen / Varane / Vale / Smyth / Morgan / Bennie / Sutton / Poku (Richards / Dixon Bonner) (* obvs in a 433 some of these play as wide forwards, but I reckoned it was easier to bunch them in here, and keep 'strikers' to those playing centrally up top and charged with leading our goals for column). Strikers Celar / Kolli / Burrell / Frey (Lloyd) As ever, please shout if any obvious misses. [Post edited 28 Jul 14:22]

The season 25-26 squad thread on 19:53 - Aug 1 by dmm | There is a new Inside Training video on the offy. I didn't see Frey, Celar or Burrell. And no Esquerdinha either - is he injured as he wasn't in the match day squads for the last two friendlies? There were two young players I didn't recognise from the DS. One with big hair (not the new CB Smith) and the other quite stocky looking. Does anyone know them? Bennie seemed to be playing as a striker. Perhaps Stephan sees him in that position but I'm not convinced. |
Apparently a 15yo is training with the first team, Leon Scarlett. They are fast tracking players through, what a change in mentality at the club. |  |

Isn't Kealey Adamson one of the players and I thought I did see Burrell. |  | |  |

Adamson is in the video but isn't one of the two. I'll have another look at the video and hope to see Burrell. |  | |  |

Both look big units for their age, and value in football is increasingly favouring the biggest lads (sorry Illy, Kaddy) |  |

Bennie needs to go out on loan. I'm not convinced he's good enough at this level so it'd be interesting to see what he could do in league 2. Someone call Mr Holloway at Swindon please.... Not sure anyone has worked out what his best position is. Not quick enough as a winger and doesn't have the strikers instinct (great goal last week mind but offered little else) |  |
