Morning and happy Friday Bears.

With Kranjcar looking set to sign we have Sheils, Rossiter, Holt, Barton, Halliday, Forrester young lads Thompson and Burt as well as Murdoch.

I make that ten midfield players not including McKay, OHallaron who are wingers because we play three up top (which I love) . I love our manager and his staff but are we in trouble of having to many midfield players and upsetting the squad and the pathway to the first team that The gaffer wants everyone to see?

Shields is out of contract at the end of June/ July and I can't see him getting/ or wanting to sign a new contract.

I don't think we have too many in the middle as I think the gaffer will be rotating the squad and its better to have a couple extra incase of injury.

I doubt that we will be as lucky as last season to not have many out injured.

Defo not, were going to need everyone of them next season, it's a long season and with both cups they will all get game time.

You would imagine the younger players getting pumped out on loan again and possibly Sheils leaving making it 6 then add crooks if not in defence and windass as attacking mid so if krankjar joins I would imagine we're done in that department, keeper, centre half and a finisher and we're set.

These are by all accounts midfield players, but it seems to me that MB wants players capable of playing anywhere in the team, let's face it, is first season was as close to total football as I've ever seen at Ibrox. The hat has my confidence.

also the gaffer needs different types of players who can change the game if needed. there were a few games where it wasnt going our way and we never had that option plus look at the cup games when we were short on the bench.

challenge/ competition/ desire. that's what we need this season.

Kranjcar will be more wide left up front.
