I suspect someone like Sibley or Bradshaw will move in January if they haven't played, which will allow us to get a further reinforcement in. O'Donkor doesn't fill a squad place so doesn't count, though I imagine he'll go on loan.

Considering Bradshaw isn't even making the squad any more, I'd image he'd move on if his standing doesn't improve. By that time Romeny will be back and we'll still have Lankshear, Prelec, MHarris and O'Donkor; so we'd be well-stocked for striking options

Hopefully Romeny will find the current set up a little more suited to his style of play, could try the Prelec role and Prelec can flit between that/Lankshear role.

how much to put the SoS signature on a certain document?

I like the look of Salech and Fish who play for Cardiff!

Cameron Brannagan - Will Fish feels like it has potential

Joel Bagan also worth a look
First saw him play as a youngster with Ruben at Notts County

Will Fish was the right sided centre half we should of targeted in the summer

Does the defence need improvement in January? I would much rather we targeted the midfield, where we are short on numbers, and the attack, where we have numbers but lack quality than our strongest area.

Given the limitations of what you can do in January I would take another centre midfielder to add depth and a winger to add quality.

Yep Salech looked decent from day 1 at Cardiff..

Would have thought he’d cost a few million, and could attract interest from top half champ clubs.

Looks a right handful..

Definitely need a central midfielder, at the least for squad depth.

Midfielder maybe 2 and right centre half, striker. the main priorities for me, we have plenty of wide players currently.
Long has done well at rch when used this season, although we moved Helik sideways Saturday, to accommodate 2 left footed centre half’s.
And playing Vaulks in amongst the back line 2nd half at Wrexham

 

[OUFC1978]

Clear some space if possible (Bradshaw and Sibley?) and id go for a proper left winger and a defensive midfielder. All the players we use on the left are cut inside types. We need a touch line hugger who crosses with left foot. Midfielder to start ahead of Vaulks or instead of CB/Brian if injured.

We do have a lot of wingers but none of them are exactly pulling up trees, with a few of them very rarely contributing. Whereas Helik and Long are fine at centre back. Don't like us playing 3 at the back personally, but that is the only reason I could see us bringing in a right centre back.

 

[holdsteady]

One way to clear some space and bring in some money, while also having very little effect on the team as he never plays is to sell Goodrham, we seem to have missed the peak of his transfer price in the summer but its only going down if his season continues as it is though.

Missed a trick by not signing Moldovan midfielder Catalin Carp

I would really like us to sign 2 midfielders in January. Someone with a similar profile to Marcus Maguane / Shandon Baptiste - a player that's able to turn the ball over, get us up the pitch, and then pick a pass. We're a team that likes to play on the counter and I feel as though we're missing that type of player in the squad. BDK is great at picking a pass and Brannagan is great at doing the dirty work to recover the ball, but beyond those two, we are pretty buggered.

I'd also like us to sign a better CDM. Someone with more physicality and stature than Vaulks. Someone that can sit in front of the back 4 and really shore us up in the 6 role.

Lastly, we need a left winger that can play on the outside. As others have mentioned, all of our left wingers like to cut inside. We need a player that will go around his man and get the ball in the box. Lankshear is a great finisher with a natural instinct in front of goal - as we saw with his goal on Saturday. He needs the service and apart from Mills, I dont trust any of our wingers to give it him!

If we're able to get the above done in January, I am confident we will finish higher than we did last season.

 

[Paul Cannell]

Midfielder and a winger. Then a midfielder again for a bit of depth.

 

[RgYellows]

3-5-2 and bin off the wingers. 2xCM and another ticket for the striker lottery.
