I honestly expect a couple of quality players at least. We have got ourselves right back into it and with the money we’ve already spent I can see us taking a bit of the summer budget now to ensure survival. We have weak links now and that could send us down. Plug them and we have one of the best sides in the bottom 10 by some margin and should... as much as that can be said... be ok.
I’d have said 2/3..with Dann now it’s 3/4 players. With lack of games in January I can see at least a couple being late in the window though, especially with the added cost of a cb not remotely budgeted for Striker CB Goalkeeper Midfielder In that order of importance now

wonder if Roy will change plans slightly and use Jairo as our midfield cover and prioritise a centre-back instead of a centre mid now. Someone in the mould of that Klavan chap at Liverpool would be perfect, think the Scousers paid about four million quid for him, plenty of top level experience and nothing flashy for a modest fee. Hopefully our scouts have been paying attention and can find someone similar.

Yep, lots of incomings will be needed.

Goalies
Hen Speroni We clearly need a third, maybe a foreign loan with a view to buying in summer Full backs Ward Tfm Sclupp Pva Reidewald / Kelly as additional cover Souare out on loan? No need to buy anyone unless pva goes - we bring in target or keep souare? Centre backs Sakho (out for another month?) injury prone? Tomkins - injury prone Kelly - solid back up Delaney - not reliable on last years form Reidewald / tfm as cover but no prem experience I expect this will now be an area we will look to strengthen due to Dann injury? Midfield - will Roy revert to 442 or stick with 451? Cabaye Luka Macarthur Rlc Reidewald Townsend Zaha Sako In an ideal world we would buy one central midfielder and one wide player who is also capable of playing as a second striker Strikers Benteke Goes without saying we need someone to play alongside/instead of benteke. This gives us a core squad of 18 players who can be seen as capable in the premier league (this includes Delaney and our 2 current keepers who are barely prem quality) plus Wickham who is a long way off fitness. So, in order of priority we need. 1 a striker - I’d go for slimani - I think he would suit our style more than Leicester’s 2 centre half - not an area we expected to be investing in but realistically need better 4th choice than Delaney. Dougie and Roy will need to earn their corn here. Perhaps Kline from Norwich as a stopgap? He’s only 29. 3 goalie - Kevin Trapp on loan would be amazing 4 midfielder - I wish we had got Burke - struck me as a real palace player - lookman woukd be good signing too - maybe have to forgoe this are until summer with reidewald looking decent? Gives us 21 players to get through the season. |

I think a striker and centre back now become our priorities. Jairo may well be used more as a midfielder now.
The keeper is important but I think the other two are probably more critical now. As others have suggested, maybe a foreign loan could work or a cheapish player who can add depth for the rest of the season before we look at it properly in the summer. |

I think any European loan would be a keeper as we’ve been linked to two in Trapp and the Athletico keeper at the end of the summer (saw his name mentioned the other day) then either someone like Alfie Mawson at Swansea or a defender from the championship, a bit part prem or European striker and maybe a CM if the budget stretches, but Riedewald stepping up may make the less of a priority this window |

Huddersfield close to signing central defender Kongolo from Monaco. How do they get their targets so early whereas we will probably wait until 11pm on the 31st Jan

are you new here. We have a rubbish scouting network. We are just about to start Phase 1 ie linked with some decent players inadvertantly alerting other clubs who will outbid us by a small amount

Because after 5 years in this league, we've learnt nothing.

If you do your research in advance and know your targets and "feelers/discussions" can take place with the intended club, then there should be no reason why signings cant be completed asap as we have seen with Huddersfield which did not just happen overnight.
I think we need to see what happens in the next week or so but NO later before we start pointing the finger should nothing happen. |

We really should have Wickham back any moment so he will help with the striker bit - ideally we want and have done since Chamack that no. 10.

With injuries to Dann and Sakho we really need to buy another Centre Back. Didn't think we would need to do this but it is not an area you take a chance with. Tompkins does get his fair share of injuries too.
As ever we need to buy or loan a decent Striker to provide competition for Benteke. Not sure how far the budget will go but a 1st team Keeper as well. |

Hijack it if he's any good, everybody else does it to us, put the London slant on it and get Jairo to have a word being Dutch.
