Disappointed think we really should've got another midfielder in
Please let there be another one after the Ward signing!
If it makes anyone feel better just put a cardboard cutout of Tomlin near the bench and essentially it will be the same thing.
Rob Phillips suggesting still could be another. .
Jacks have signed Andy King on loan, we could have had him
If Bogle stays we’ve now got four strikers and Pilks. Plus the two midfielders. Not a bad bit of business.
I think the Wildschut and Grujic signings are the key ones this window. I'm looking forward to seeing them settle in a bit more as they bring the ability to play through our opponents on the ground.
Will be interesting to see how we line up against Leeds and if Zohore gets dropped in favour of Madine. The first choice front line and midfield could be really exciting if it gels:
Grujic
Ralls Paterson
Hoillett KZ/GM Wildschut
At least we've now got options to freshen things up, even if Madine is not getting anyone's pulse racing at the moment
Rob Phillips hinted at another signing, any ideas?
We've got a heavy run of games coming up. I worry that we are thin in midfield with injuries etc. Hopefully Bryson not far off.
Mitrovic gone to Fulham, they’re looking very dangerous at the moment.
Bogle loan to Peterborough confirmed.
Camp on loan to Sunderland confirmed
Well at least we won’t have the added expense of the playoffs
Are Ben Wilson and Ibrahim Meite back at the club after their loans in the first half of the season?
There is a lot of negativity about at the moment but I’m not too down about the window.
Wildschut and Grujic will hopefully be important starters and make an impact as they find their feet. I would have preferred Grabban to Madine but (despite his thuggish past) I think Madine will fit into the squad better. He is not a bad option after his form in the last 18 months. What went before is not really relevant.
The loans out all make sense - and all will be back in the summer.
I am bothered by our weakness in midfield - even with Grujic, and with Paterson filling in. Unless Gunnar and Bryson are back soon that will be our Achilles heel.
The main problems we have for the run in are getting Ken and NML back firing as they can but haven’t recently, and closing the door again at the back (and I’m much more confident of that now Mozzer is back).
We were never going to sort those things through waving a chequebook in the Transfer Window. That is all down to the coaches and the players - and the early signs are that we are getting back, but aren’t there yet.
