January window

We will probably tweak the squad after Christmas.

Who is likely to be loaned, sold or gifted to free up some wages and make way for some fresh blood if they don't have a sudden uptick in form?

(And don't say Revs, way too predictable)

We desperately need players that can play wide, and actually deliver good balls into the box.

What I reckon will happen:

Out:
B.Thompson perm transfer
Press loan/sold
Aboh and king recalled
Smith perm

In
Some sort of playmaking dm
Smith or evans recalled and used for the second half of the season
Some loan attacker who can play out-wide and central
A versatile full back on loan

- GK - Hopefully Cooper won't be recalled which means that there's no need to extend Bouzanis's loan
- Aboh (Probably to be recalled due to lack of game time)
- King (Happy for him to stay but could be recalled)
- Pressley
- Simpson
- Permanent transfer for Ben Thompson if possible (already out on loan)

Any one of our attacking or creative players (yeah I can't name any either) is y risk of being shipped out.

Trouble is we will replace them with something probably worse.

Can't afford for the window to be as bad as the one last January.

I think a couple will be gone, notably Pressley if we can shift him. He's out of contract in the summer and you'd think it'll be a loan as clubs won't want to buy if he's only got 6 months left. I can't see Aboh staying, and I don't imagine Norwich are too pleased with his lack of playing time. I think Simpson will stay (rightly or wrongly), as he does offer something different to our other strikers.

As to who we may try and get in, it surely, surely has to be an out-and-out winger. We can't keep persisting with playing strikers and Roberts/Kemp on the wing as it really painfully obviously doesn't work.

He does, though not in a good way. I imagine he must run through brick walls in training to get in the squad.
He certainly couldn't jump over them...

You are right, he gets the coffees in for the gaffer, similar role to Mc Donald last season

Two new strikers?

I mean, the raft of forwards we brought in last summer have done little – doesn't bode well for any potential signings.

I think he must mean two strikers who can actually score when playing this system.
