Yeah that's what I thought, but after being told there's no chance for McClean, maybe we're getting a bit desperate? I may be wrong, but it doesn't appear we have much money to spend judging by all the loan rumours and links to player who are old/out of contract soon. So maybe it's a loan or nothing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Animal is a Ram Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 My inkling is that we won't see anything happen until Martin is confirmed out.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously, what I meant to say was don't disrupt the stingiest centre half pairing. Thank you for pointing out my error. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My inkling is that we won't see anything happen at all unfortunately. Anya being brought back from the dead suggests to me that we're struggling to find a club for him and we're also struggling to find a suitable winger ourselves. The only thing that fills me with a bit of hope is the fact they're letting Thomas go on loan, which, in my mind at least, would be crazy if we didn't bring in at least one winger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnero Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 My inkling is that we'll be making late loan swoops for Andy Lonergan and a young winger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah could see that happening. Saw something about Lonergan nearly moving today but a deal falling through, so it looks like he's available Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I trust Gary but not sure if promotion can happen with the squad as it stands You might be right about promotion but I'm confident it won't be down to our central defenders.

EnigmaRam Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 The only reason to sign flint now would be to get on the end of one of Fozzys crosses as he balloons it over everyone normally and he may be tall enough! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d sign Flint because he’s a good footballer. Doubt we will get him as Bristol will want to keep him and can’t say I’d blame them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wisdom at a pinch could do a job i suppose but I would worry using Pearce if either Davies or Keogh got injured Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was up to me we'd sign a winger, a young backup centre back and a different type of centre midfielder to the 3 or 4 we currently have. I wouldn't sign another keeper because what's the point of having Roos and Mitchell if they aren't even trusted to be backups. I'd also try and loan/sell Hanson. That would leave us with 2 players for most positions, with strikers having 3 options and Johnson being able to play both on the left or in centre mid. The only area then lacking a bit of depth would be Vydra's number 10 role, but I'm sure Lawrence can cover there if needed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was always gonna be the case, if our main target was McLean and we have waited until 3 days before the end of the window to find out he isn't actually available I have very little faith. Although it eventually paid off we made a bit of a dog's dinner of Augusts deadline day too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
