Following my #EFL thread yday, here are 10 #NationalLeague players who need a move to revitalise their career
These are mainly players who 12 months ago had a very high stock, and who I believe are capable of hitting those levels again 🧵👇

Cal Roberts
This one is the epitome of what this thread is all about. I have no doubt Cal Roberts is still a top, top player; he just needs the move to show it
He’s had an unlucky time in Scotland, & 12 months ago he was one of the best in the NL. A technically gifted attacker

Alex Lacey
12 months ago Lacey was seen as a top end NL defender, so much so that he got himself a move to the EFL despite missing out on promotion with Notts
It’s been a really poor 12 months for him, but a fresh move may unlock that defender once more

🧵Sensible Transfers: #ReadingFC
Recently relegated Reading will be keen to bounce back amidst a backdrop of uncertainty
Here are 5 players they could look at based on YOUR suggestions
Comment what team + 5 positions I should do next! 👇

CB: Michael Hector
One player I believe could make a return to Reading this summer is Michael Hector. He’s out of contract following a short spell at Charlton, where he looked comfortable at the level
I’m unsure if wages would be a problem, but he’s a good defender, knows club

CM: Charlie Webster
Reading made good use of loans from Chelsea last season, and another I feel they could look at this year is teenage midfielder Webster
He’s yet to experience senior men’s football, but I believe he has the ability. Comfortable as either an 8 or 6

GK: Tiernan Brooks
Neal Ardley likes his side to play out from the back, and with Boot potentially off they might need a new keeper
Solihull aren’t adverse to a loan keeper and Brooks will be looking for a full time senior loan. Local enough too so I like the fit all round

CB: Zak Lilly
Once again, the focus has to be on defenders who are confident and capable playing out from the back
Hereford’s Lily is a defender who played more passes than most in NLS. He’s also 24, local and likely to be available for cheap

Puede resultar sencillo, pero el belga ha liderado una transformación profunda en #BurnleyFC con sello propio que ha permitido dominar con mano de hierro la competición. Equipo de autor: alegre, ofensivo y fiel a su idea.

Jugón, con todas las letras. Ha sido la temporada definitiva de su irrupción y consolidación. Clave para entender el ascenso de #SheffieldUnited desde el enganche o incluso falso 9. Es una barbaridad en espacios reducidos.

The Magpies’ SM reach isn’t huge but they sure did attract a Premier League star to their ground for Non League Day.

Like Aldershot, Barnet have staged a clever reply to comments, which come from Notts County, branding their goal as a “scrappy leveller”.

#WxmAFC proved the #NationalLeague has plenty of quality in their 3-3 draw with #SUFC
They did plenty of things really well in the game - here’s a thread 🧵 looking at what they did. A short analysis 👇

Here’s a move they executed early in the 2nd half. They did a really good job of restricting the game to one half off the pitch
Down the left they were especially potent as it’s where Elliot Lee was most active

They look to use the channels, something Sheff Utd had real trouble defending
The threat of Tozer’s set pieces put SU on edge when defending, making it easier for Wrexham to play their game in these lateral zones

🆕🧵With deadline day fast approaching I decided to do a thread of 10 #NationalLeague players I feel could make a late move to the #EFL
Let me know if you want any more transfer content before deadline day below - and if so what? 👇

10. Kyran Lofthouse
He’s only so low down the list because Woking are flying. Strong, quick and direct, Lofthouse is a superb right sided midfielder
He ranks 4th for dribbles per 90, and is also capable of playing RB. Seems to have lost his place of late, leaving the door open

9. Tyler Cordner
The first of a few CBs on this list. At 24 Cordner still has plenty of upside, but is already a very mature defender
Comfortable with the ball at his feet and bringing play out from the back, Cordner plays on the left of the CB pairing

Here’s my thread 🧵 of my thoughts on todays #NationalLeague games
Let’s start at the top where both #Notts and #WxmAFC won 4-0. They’re matching each other blow for blow and are both magnificent sides. The argument for 2 automatic promotion places couldn’t be stronger

Jeff King and Darren Oldaker are two of the best in the league (both made it into our @notts_stats Team of the First Quarter), and both were on the scoresheet as #Spireites continued their good form
They’ve had 3 really tough games this week so 7 points from them is very good

I had Dagenham on the group acca, so a 4-1 win wasn’t surprising. Wealdstone are really dipping off now, a massive shame. Morias got another 2 goals, such an exciting player to watch
#TheShots have had an unbelievable turnaround; winning away at Dorking is tough, especially 3-0!

Here are my #NationalLeague thoughts after todays games
Firstly #Alty are finally coming good, and looking like the side I’ve predicted them to be all season. 3 wins in 4, and getting the rewards for playing the right way. Great to see @MullarkeyToby on the scoresheet,top player

#Spireites have lost 3 on the bounce and must be worries about results. Even starting Kabby didn’t help. Huge credit to Eastleigh who continue to have a good season
Maidstone stopped the rot finally with a late equaliser; hope this is a turning point for them

#Iron might have been 3-1 up, but #TheShots did brilliantly to come from behind and rescue a point. Apter is some player for Scunthorpe
A great win for #WeAreTheWood capitalising on a #WeAreBromley slip up. A tough away day too so fair play to Garrard’s side

🆕🧵✍️ Here’s my thread on #Notts 3-1 defeat away at Dorking
This game ended our unbeaten start, but there is a lot we can’t take away from the game
Video credit to Dorking on this one. A fantastic place to go to, any #NationalLeague fans should deffo make the trip down

Let’s start with the positives, and this goal from Cedwyn Scott was exactly what we needed. Individual brilliance and a striker grabbing the game by the scruff of the neck. It’s a classic Ced goal; gives the eyes for the far post before smashing it in the near side
This was one of our best passages of play, and I’ve decided to include the full clip then break it down bit by bit. It’s a really pleasing move on so many levels, and on another day this would have been a goal. This is Williams ball at its best; high turnover creating chances
1 Looks like my all-singing, all-talking, all-dancing seasonal attendances thread is kicking off six weeks early this year, owing to decisions made by the FA in England & (thus far) the Highland League in Scotland - though that may change over the weekend. First, an explainer.
2 I'm not going to argue on this thread about the rights & wrongs of decisions made. I've done that elsewhere (preferably complete the season or if not possible void it and apply across the board) but the effects.
3 There is no statistically historic accurate way to deal with voided seasons. No 'right' way, no 'wrong' way. It's a matter of individual interpretation. The only previous occasions when this happened in the UK were in England in 1915 at the end of the season so no problems
