4 NEW SIGNINGS REPLACE..
Shodipo back to QPR, Nathan Holland?
Hall & Hanson sold/released.
Mousinho won’t be in the new squad because he needs an op.
It seems strange to me that the club goes on about the development of youth but where is the confidence of KR in any of the youngsters. We prefer to put a crocked Mous on the bench rather than a new prospect. Nobody from the youth is being pushed up into a contender. All problems have to be solved by a transfer in rather than a promotion up. Where is the vision? We can save money through the development of the talent within but that seems to be lacking. If we don't see the youngsters as the way forward we could just get rid and cut our costs to afford better 1st team squad. Players appearing for one game here and there is no plan......
Couple of things on this - firstly, the names that we have in mind floating around are perhaps younger than we think, because they first became known quite a while ago when still scholars - so the likes of Lopes, Spasov and Jones are all actually younger (albeit by a matter of weeks) than Leon Chambers-Parillon - they are all just turning 19...as is Elechi.It seems strange to me that the club goes on about the development of youth but where is the confidence of KR in any of the youngsters.

Eastwood in goal, starts for Sykes, Hall , Hanson ( if not injured between now and tues), shopido, agyei , forde maybe Clare too, among othersFringe players going to be given a chance against FGR.
Interesting, but most intrigued by what he does with the defence - will he rest all four of the main unit? does he risk mous for 90mins? Elechi on the left? Another go for clare on the right? Jones? Obita? Forde and/or Hanson with someone else in midfield?Fringe players going to be given a chance against FGR.
Clare, Jones, Moore, ElechiInteresting, but most intrigued by what he does with the defence - will he rest all four of the main unit? does he risk mous for 90mins? Elechi on the left? Another go for clare on the right? Jones? Obita? Forde and/or Hanson with someone else in midfield?
I would think Elechi and Jones , possibly Lofthouse r/b with Sole, Lopes and a couple of other youth reamers on the benchInteresting, but most intrigued by what he does with the defence - will he rest all four of the main unit? does he risk mous for 90mins? Elechi on the left? Another go for clare on the right? Jones? Obita? Forde and/or Hanson with someone else in midfield?
Clare, Jones, Moore, Elechi
Can't risk Atkinson, Long and Ruffels will both be knackered and with big headaches to boot this morning. Obita still not 100% match fit.
Lofthouse is playing regularly for Woking which is great for his development so maybe a bit much to play Tues as well... think him and Spasov ,Elechi will really be around first team next seasonCan Mous play 90 mins? He did play an earlier round iirc so Clare, Mous, Jones, Elechi. Would could also play Lofthouse in place of Clare, assuming Lofthouse is fit (haven't a clue either way).

Because they simply aren't good enough currently for Division 1 football, they need loans at clubs where they would get time. Some are already on loan.It seems strange to me that the club goes on about the development of youth but where is the confidence of KR in any of the youngsters.
