January Transfer Window - Who do we want? (3 Viewers)

Your 2 incomings are likely to cost more than those outgoings, in terms of fees and wages. Not happening - plus Max has done well when called upon, and is the player most capable of filling Godden's role, if he's out at all.
He's the player most capable because he's the ONLY option. Let's bring someone new in, they dont have to cost the earth (eg Colby Bishop)
We can also offload Brown, Kastaneer and possibly Ponticelli.

With 2 players on loan there I imagine we have been looking at Josh March the Leamington striker who’s scored 16 in the league

Bez Lubala from Crawley would seem to fit the bill as attacking midfield player/ forward who can score. Seems to be attracting attention from championship teams so possibly out of our budget

The Transfer JCH from Bristol will bring us £100K+ to keep the wolves away from the door methinks! Could be more if some chump championship club pays 2 Million that they want for him.

I think some need to forget the love in for Bright. He aint coming back, messed MR about and strung the fans a long on social media. Clearly not impressed at Wigan possible attitude issues so as good as he was when here why risk it and upsetting the team

Fuck Bright. Wouldn't work in this system as nowhere near hard working as Allen Westbrooke or Shipley. He was given license last season to do as he pleased yet ultimately we weren't any more successful. I don't think we need to make any signings in Jan bar extending Walsh unless we lose players

We don't play with wingers

Do you not feel there’s been times when we needed to put some pace up front though? Against Wycombe there were four or five breaks that broke down because we had no one who could open up their legs and run into the space.

Traditionally that’s a winger, though they’d be playing a different role. We aren’t likely to find a player who slots in exactly with the attributes needed IMO.

We've meant to have submitted a bid for Eastleigh centre half Rob Atkinson, sounds from their end that he's off.

I think we should be looking at an experienced back-up centre-half tbh. We play 3 at the back, but if one of them gets injured we either have to change formation or play a rookie (Williams, Drysdale or Pask). If two of them get injured, then we're in trouble.

Pask isnt really a rookie. Had a season at gillingham before us

Robins has come out this week and said he doesn’t think he’ll do anything in this window now unless people move out.
Due to the squad we’ve got, players coming back from injury and due to less income from ground sharing we can’t just go out and spend

He likes today those things mate,can see a couple in & possibly out but not until the last day of the window.

Jan is a long month so things can change on the transfer front. An injury to a key player may rethink plans. I still think there will be some movement though.

we dont need wingers for this formation, we have kastaneer and jones and neither of them are being used in shipley or westbrookes roles so MR wouldnt need a new winger to sit on bench

JJ could possibly do it but like o hare he would be light in the tackle, o hare at least tries whereas i just dont see that tenacity in jones, he will prob have to play as a second striker or play wing when we are desperately chasing a game

we need to retain walsh. bar that no glaring problem in squad, pask should be back on bench soon too

Really? You’re using the fact we aren’t starting the massively unfit and unimpressive Kastaneer and a guy coming back from an ACL who hasn’t even started a reserve game as evidence we don’t need some pace going forward?

It’s not about the starting lineup with our current formation. It’s about options available in the squad. Looking as a whole, I think we lack pace and that’s useful in a lot of game scenarios.

no i am using 2 wingers in squad that are not playing in AMC roles as reason why we shouldnt sign a new winger to play as an attacking midfielder

why dont you just say you want a pacey midfielder? pace isnt exclusive to wingers

Sounds like for a 2nd season running the owners have asked him not to go for promotion :)

I am sure MR is being asked to offload - in reality JJ could do with some action - league 2 Loan ? Kasteneer should be in the first train out - we have strikers ! We need cover for key people
