    What about Carlos Vela loan from LAFC, VT owns them, their season is at an end.

    Yes to Vela problem is MLS restarts in March.

    VT is a minority owner (one of 30) at LA so I doubt he has enough influence

    Simply not good enough all over the park.

    Love to be suprised and proved wrong.
    This is very true. Our defence is consistently in disarray so what do we do there .
    Our midfield (apart from Camarasa) is championship level.
    I think January is too late, we got promoted with a very weak style of play which is outdated in the Premiership.
    We pretty much kept a championship squad so the potential to change will take time.
    We need around 6 new players and a manager who is not interested in consistently pumping long balls into the box for a defender to challenge for.

    Let's be honest if a team can nullify Murphy and Paterson we'll likely lose 10/10

    It’s irrelevant because every single player is available in January. It’s the only time other than the off season when that is the case

He knows that but has gambled on team spirit being more important than players who might upset that, as well as having to make do with a very restricted budget it appears.

    Against Fulham we were the better side and deservedly won. The same could be said for Newcastle and Burnley where we should have won. Arsenal we should have had at least a point. That would have put us on 11 points and looking a lot more secure.

    I think a few of our fans have very short memories and are instead happy to parrot the lazy journalism about NW not being good enough
    Tend to agree. I think there are 6 or maybe more teams in the PL who would struggle to get promoted out of the Championship this season (us included). We just have to finish above 3 of them

    Tactics and attitude have been acceptable.

    Not getting a striker in August was the biggest failing.

    Flapping round for a striker in January feels like closing the door after the horse has bolted.
