Surprised Rino isn't attached to any club, did well last season for Cardiff. If fit would be a good addition.

Is Williams a left back? If so, that'd be a good signing.

Would be good to see Rino back too.

Yep he can. And with Jacob now injured a very useful body through the door.

You beat me to it by a few minutes Brogue-I think your source is the same as mine.

Been training with us long? Good players and useful experience to bring in, but will surely be well short of match fitness.

Do they have to wait for January 1 for clearance to play or are they immediately available as unattached freebies?

(That sounded eerily like my love life growing up!)

As long as they were unattached when the window closed (which they were), they're good to go.

If the motor man is signed again does that mean Elliott and/or Fraser are expected to be out for a long time?

Cardiff's POTS last season. As you say, if he's fit and half as good as he was last time he was here, he'll be a fantastic addition.

I know nothing about Williams other than he's played over 100 times at this level and above.

Interesting as Williams was knocking about whilst Hunt was still here, so maybe not one he’d have been after

Very suprised Rino didn’t find another club. POTS in a champ side

Where’s he going to play though? He won POTS at right back rather than CM

More than happy to have him though

Williams confrimed til January on short term deal

Quick scan on whoscored - Strengths - crossing, style of play - Likes to cross

He’s another shorty though. Guessing an LB more than a winger

I guess he must be fit and ready to go, otherwise a deal until January seems a bit pointless.

One of Richardson's favoured formations is apparently 3-5-2 so maybe a wing back? Yiadom started out as a winger so could do a similar job on the right.

Yes not a bad shout. Yiadoms always been a bit shite at crossing the ball but has other attributes. Abrefa is a good WB I reckon. Ritchie also.

3-5-2 is an interesting one. Maybe the best solution with our current squad. Prob the formation to get the best out of Marriott

Yiadom has also covered at CB so, whilst I wouldn't pick him there in a CB pairing, he could maybe add a bit of pace at the back alongside Williams and O'Connor with Ritchie or Abrefa on the right.

And also provided we hadn't registered our full permitted quota of 22 senior professionals (of which at least 8 must be 'home grown'*), at last check we had quite a few slots left remaining.

*All that is required to qualify as home grown is to have been registered with any club affiliated to the FA or the FA of Wales for at least three seasons or 36 months prior to their 21st birthday (or the end of the season they turn 21).

Me too. POTS for them, then gets released and no one else wants him?

Potential medical/fitness issue?
