Cant see it my self

No matter what someone has said on here I really can't see us wasting money in the Jan xfer window. Reason being unless Orta can dig out a real gem there will be no quality better than what we have, not my words but TC's.

I wonder if there's any prospect of getting Green back on loan from Hudds?

If he's not getting game time he might fancy it.

Danny Ward. Good enough for promotion last season and currently back as liverpools number 3. Surely a loan option is available.

danny ward is a good call. seen him in the cup games and looks solid.
but january is for selling and panic buying.

As I see it, someone made the decision that Rob Green didn't fit in with our way of playing, Felix brought in at the end of June a couple of weeks after TC was appointed. I would wager that Thomas had set out his stall from the onset in working towards a team that had a sweeper keeper, Rob Green didn't fit in with those on so many levels, not able to be that type of keeper, too old etc. If your face doesn't fit.
Green moved on in part because Felix was doing well and the plan was coming along.
The problem as I see it is, just as Rob Green is old school so are Pontus and Coops. They are old fashioned centre backs, just the type Rob Green is used to.
Either Felix needs centre backs used to playing with a sweeper keeper or we need someone like Rob Green.
The defence is a mismatch.

A left back and a GK are the big two. Charlie Taylor still has not been properly placed. There have been half-arsed attempts, but he hasn't been. Berardi is not a LB. Anita is inconsistent at LB albeit a good player when used properly. CBJ is simply not good enough.

We need a goalkeeper. FW is not good enough for a promotion chasing Championship side. These mistakes will continue. Things were fairly quiet for him during most of the QPR game and then he folded under tiny pressure. As a promotion chasing team there will be more games where he needs to keep his concentration. On Saturday we were lucky, there will be games where he costs us points.

A striker may be needed. I feel there is a combination of our current strikers that may work with two upfront but if PML is done here then we need another in as competition.

Spot on with the keeper analysis Pro.

He will cost us if we don't replace in Jan.

Alex McCarthy please.

Need a replacement for Phillips ASAP He just backs off and hides because he knows he's not good enough.

Be careful with your comments about our goalkeeping situation guys. The moron spotter will come down on you like a ton of bricks!
I know you all were under the illusion that this was a forum for discussion about the team but you have to pretend that everything in the garden is rosy or the wrath of Lubo will be upon you. Tremble tremble!
