00:00How do you see the summer recruitment split?
00:03How many players do you think you might be able to get permanently?
00:05Are you going to maximise your loans?
00:07Whatever we need to do to get the best squad.
00:09It's going to depend, isn't it?
00:11I've had a list of players, I've had conversations, but it's on hold, you can't do anything.
00:20If you get your plan A then fantastic, but it generally doesn't happen,
00:23so you have to be ready to move and just go with the flow of that
00:28to get the best possible squad, and that's why I say loans are going to be important.
00:34Free transfers we can afford, small pool, do you know what I mean?
00:39So, yeah, we want to make some signings, as many permanents as possible as us,
00:42the right character, the right player, and then we'll certainly be bulking up the squad
00:48with as good of loans as possible, and we want to avoid just getting numbers,
00:53we want to make sure we can get loans to try and improve the XI,
00:56but again, the competition for those players is immense.
00:59So, yeah, if you stand here right now, there's probably five faces,
01:06which I wouldn't have a clue what it would be, that will all evolve in the summer.
01:10Do you think the team will look a lot different next season,
01:12or do you feel like there's a core there?
01:14Yeah, there's a core there we need to add to.
01:18I think we've shown lots of good characteristics throughout the season,
01:22and I keep saying the same things every week where we need to improve,
01:25so that's it. It's pretty simple, really. We can't lose what's been good about us
01:29in terms of how competitive we've been, how dogged we've been.
01:33I'll accept the odd bad one, you know, we're going to get that.
01:37But as long as our levels of performance are really consistent,
01:39then it's easier to manage and deal with problems.
01:41If we were a team like that and you never know what you're going to get,
01:45yeah, I think that's tough.
