So Apart from off loading a couple of players, what makes people think we are going to add to the squad anD increase the wage bill, the one that we can already barley afford. Unless I am missing something there is nothing financially telling me we are going to bring anyone in. Two months..come on.. ..hardly makes us cereal offenders.

G STAR RAM Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 On 18/01/2021 at 21:28, DCFClks said: In order of priority I think these are the transfers we need. 1) Centre Back - If either Clarke or Wisdom get injured we're in trouble, also Wisdom's mistakes have cost us a lot recently. 2) Striker - As much as CKR has exceeded expectations, he does lack movement and seems to fade a lot towards the end of games. 3) CM/CAM - Shinnie and Knight have been good but they're not naturally attacking enough. Quite a few big chances have fallen to Shinnie recently and he hasn't scored. We need someone whose more of a goal threat with the vision to play through-balls and link up play to the forwards. 4) Winger - A lot of our attacking play has been very one sided down which ever side Jozwiak is playing. Possible loan players who aren't getting games: Hector - Fulham - CB Hourihane - Villa - CM Johansen - Fulham -CM Gilmour - Chelsea - CM (unlikely but Frank owes us) Gordon - Everton - CAM/Winger Vydra We have kept 7 clean sheets in the last 10 matches, only scored 16 all season and you think we should be prioritising a centre back?! What are these Wisdom mistakes that have cost us a lot recently? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(pedants... yes, I know before you tell me) But it means we are struggling for cash. So adding to your cash out when you can’t cover your current commitments and without increasing your cash in = financial suicide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nor me but with the things he's said he's obviously been told that incomings can happen. We'll know in a week or so whether he's been sold a dud'un.

What are these Wisdom mistakes that have cost us a lot recently? I didn't say the defense was bad. We only have 2 natural CB's and Evans/Bielik as cover. What happens if Clarke or Wisdom get injured? I was probably harsh on Wisdom with mistakes, I remember one against Coventry. Chris_Martin and G STAR RAM 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because Mel has paid the wages all the other times he was meant to, it was the new owners who were meant to pay Dec. So why wouldnt he be able to continue to pay?

Any sort of mistake grabs a lot of attention. As you say, you remember one mistake by Wisdom against Coventry but, does the mistake by our hero (mine too by the way) Colin, against QPR (when, if he’d used his left foot instead of his right he would very likely have scored earlier) go a little more under the radar? Missing golden opportunities to score can be just as costly as making an error at the back. DCFC Kicks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do hope we sign someone, a Forward or two and a Centre half would be nice, all I am saying is with the current financial state it just doesn’t make sense that we can.
