So, what do we still need?

With only a few weeks left in the window and the potential to lose two starters in that time, what do we still need to add to this squad.

Assuming those two stay, i would say we still need to add a CB as back up as any injury to Stears or Batth will leave us re-jigging the back line or relying on Ebanks-Landell, would people be happy with that scenario?

Central midfield looks pretty solid all around but even with Sako we look likely to need reinforcements on the wing/wide positions........the general feeling is that Forde will not cut it and it seems Siggy is the go to for a wide roll should we get any injuries from the starting 11.

If we are to need Siggy out wide then we are left light up front also, and IF we lose Doyle then another hole opens up. Rumour has it that we may loan out McAlinden as well?

Wow - I'll have a look. I'm hoping to get a Philippines Wolves following. Football is taking of BIG there, and I wrote to Jez a year or so to alert him to it. he didn't even reply. Fat

Good thread by the way, Cinci

Have to agree to disagree wolfie, I think he's a good CB whose faults were magnified when played at fullback.

I agree on Elokobi though, a great person but not quite up to it.

As all my old school reports said....Tries hard but could do better.

If only you could have avoided putting that up. Again I rest my case.

Elokobi's contract must be left to run down this time, and the same can be said for Edwards, however long it has left he cannot be a part of our champo side IF we come up.

Edwards is one of a few whose contracts are up at the end of the season.

It is my understanding that KJ wants to build his own team and that's another reason why I believe there will be a few on their way, unless they put in very good performances this season.
