Do we need another winger?

With only Enzio Boldewijn and Sam Osborne who play there, do you think we need to bring in another wide player?

I know Regan Booty and Jim O'Brien have alternated on the wing in recent games but none of them are natural wingers and at Yeovil on Saturday, both never really got down the channels often (obviously because none of them really want to be playing there).

With only 2 actual wingers in the squad do you think we need to bring one in?

I'm 50/50 with this.

I think a winger is needed in some aspects, but then I wonder if we would be creating a larger squad than what we need. Sam Osbourne hasn't been given the chance or time that he deserves, the formation Neal Ardley tends to go with now doesn't favour natural wide players but I do think a traditional 4-4-2 would reap more rewards. If we aim to mix the formation up, perhaps go for another winger.

If stubborn and refuses to make use of what we have then I guess we will see.

Dion Kelly-Evans and Matt Tootle could switch to winger roles if they was given the chance, even the new left back who's Enzio's double.

I think we now have the players, they just need to be put in and in the right places.

Can the club make do with what is there? Sam Osborne doesn't seem likely to get much game time, I would say a winger is needed on this basis but the style of football this season doesn't seem as dependant on th

Yes, I think another quality winger is needed and if secured I think it would help a lot.

The real question is does Neal Ardley want to sign a winger or even play them...

The current Notts squad has a scary turn off pace but nobody who is able to drift into the wider areas of play.

Enzio Boldewijn cuts in, which leaves a lot of space that could be exploited in the right moments of the game. I don't feel Enzio is as direct enough to get down the side of the pitch, he can take players on but tends to over run things. A proper traditional winger would make a big difference I feel.

Yes, I feel Notts needs another winger.

I think we should allow what we have got now to settle further before signing for the sake of it.

A winger would be good but make use of what we have for now.

yes, yes, yes... we need a proper winger because its part of the tactics which we are lacking. cutting out wide rather than going in and whipping balls towards the far right post.

The simple answer is Yes, but that raises another question, would NA utilize them? At the very least, we need cover.

Now one has signed yes, if he goes unplayed I think it will show how limited Ardley is tactically.

We did so I’m very glad we have signed him and I can’t wait to see what he can on the wing if he can cut in and cross from the area rather than near the corner flag where it makes no impact.

I think that we might need one more, with a few going out either on loan or released.

No more players now, I think the squad is fine. When this was posted, I would have agreed that a winger was needed but after signing two additional players there is no more need for any others.
