The Prophet Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Just now, ManDoon said: Just another striker would keep us up imo. I don’t think our CBs are anywhere near as bad as they’ve looked and having a decent mid will improve them greatly Agree with this, but it is kind of terrifying that we're an injury away from Clark playing on a regular basis.

Pilko Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Just now, Yorkie said: Just find that an absolutely incredible view tbh. The level of investment and quality of players we've recruited is off the scale compared to other windows. We haven't bought a centre back since summer 2018, we're absolutely desperate for new blood in that area, shipping goals left right and centre and yet with a bottomless pit of cash (admittedly in a difficult window) we can't get better than Lascelles or Clark? Much like those two chumps can't defend, I can't defend that concept either. A CB is an absolute must. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Two, for me. All it takes is one injury otherwise and we're back to relying on the current crop (though big Fede should be back soon). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't deny that we need a CB, it's definitely priority number one after Bruno signs and it would be a shame if we couldn't secure one. But the improvement to the side and in front of the CBs is enormous and will make a difference. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest HTT II Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 We still need a LB, a CB, ACM/Winger and a CF Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Icarus Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 I'm very confident that we'll sign at least one centre back that's an upgrade on what we have, mainly because there are so many that'll be available who'll be an upgrade that even if it comes down to the final hours, we should get someone.

Either as a wide forward or winger. Origi is more of a CF. Ive really really wanted us to go for Luis Diaz, even if unlikely. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flip Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Diaz to Liverpool is a great signing if they manage it. Mane is declining rapidly in quality. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
buzza Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Burn would be ideal for us: premier league experience, in form of his life, a geordie and wants to come home... A left back and another striker/winger who can add some goals is also needed, we are quite toothless up front at times... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_R Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 DC needed for me, obviously the ones we've got aren't good enough. Also someone for RW so that we're not just attacking through ASM all the time because it's too easy for teams to just double up on him knowing he's our only outlet. Get good players in those two positions and we'll finish well clear of the drop zone. Striker would be nice but TBH unless it's someone fantastic I'm OK with who we have there, especially when Wilson is back which won't be too long.

Dummett - one game every season Ritchie - not a defender Yeah mate ideally a striker and a CB but I think someone to JUST PUT IT IN THE NET is top of the list.

Kid Icarus Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 I'd take Origi as an impact sub but I'm not convinced he's the same player when he starts. I'm on the fence about Minamino, what I've seen of him has been sometimes good sometimesa shit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ToonScotman Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 I’d much rather we signed Zapata however Morata is still an excellent striker, his all round play especially with the ball at feet he’s very good. Similar kind of player to Zapata however bit slower. His biggest con is he’s a confidence player as someone said earlier he’s a 10/10 or 0/10. Failing to get Zapata, Morata would definitely be another statement of intent, fresh start for him and chance to prove again how good he is. You’re not a 50mil+ player for nothing and no doubt he’ll get us goals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toonjam88 Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 I think we will bring in 2 centre backs one left sided and then other right sided. Him from Brighton and the other we were linked with in Germany. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
