What do we need in January?

If there was an option, I would send Facundo back, and have a go at trying to get KDH on loan. I don't think facundo is what we need right now, but KDH would compliment us a lot 

A month ago I'd have laughed at this. But Ruud don't seem too keen on Facundo and when he does get minutes he seldom does anything now.

After today's match - CBx2, striker. Rest is adequate. If Ndidi doesn't return soon - also need a defensive mid.

[les-tah]

I just struggle to see the point in a new striker unless he replaces Vardy in the 11, which should be the case as hes pushing 40. But If its a bit part player to come off the bench then we might aswel strengthen the starting 11 out wide and in defence as the starting 11 is the top priority personally.

 

i get why we need a striker 1000% but pointless if its just to be second fiddle to vardy.

In:

Centre Back

Winger

Striker

 

Out:

Faes (will be Okoli though)

Thomas

Choudhury

Edouard (probably end up having to stay though)

If not Edouard, Daka. That ‘out’ list looks good to me

[em9999]

A young striker that could learn under vardy would be ideal 👌 and give him a break every now and then

LCB, RW and Striker and we may stand a chance 

[richardsfoxes]

Striker, Winger, Centre back, over to you Rudkin. 

[FrankieADZ]

we need a new winger, another CB and a striker

 

forward in the mold of soren laursen

[Lesta2014]

If Thomas is going a second left back be good with Ricardo still injured so can’t rely on coulibaly for both sides. 

[AKCJ]

Today the players backed Ruud. Time for the board to reciprocate.

Me and my dad from the start said although he looks a massive talent, he would fade in the second half. I'm sure he'll be a great player, but imagine bilal and kdh working their asses off in midfield, that's what we need

Glad we didn’t go for Mings

The main reason for me is just the fact we are crying out for something different. I wouldn’t say we need a full on big lump of a target man, but I feel we need someone in the same mould as what Liam Delap gives to Ipswich. 
 

Someone capable of mixing it physically, but is also able to attack with pace, carry the ball and get us up the pitch. 
 

It’s why I’ve been so high on the likes of Evann Guessand and Fotis Ioannidis, their profiles are exactly what we are missing up front imo, just a shame Guessand will probably cost too much, and Ioannidis has forgot how to score

My big concern was our recent run of form might have deterred some players from joining. Hopefully the game today might help!

Yea I agree tbh.

 

Start of the season I weren't bothered.. and I still aren't particularly about KDH.. but I do think he offers the engine and graft we are crying out for 

[AKCJ]

One week to go.

 

Lets get Thomas and Okoli out the door. A winger and a centre half in.

 

Come on Leicester don't piss me off. 

[Ric Flair]

If it's too much to ask for a winger and a striker (to go with a left footed defender) then I want us to target a winger who can play up front. Bournemouth have a load of them in Kluivert, Semeyno and Ouatarra.

 

I'm going to try and unearth a couple

[JimJams]

Another Roma game goes by and Soule doesn't get off the bench.  Should give Claudio a call and get a loan with option til the end of the season.

Other clubs are asking, but we've already shown we're interested in the summer.

Rashford being heavily linked to West Ham. Surely Ruud could pull a few strings and get this over the line? Can play as CF or Wing. 

[frany104]

Ansu Fati on loan

He's crocked, sadly. Played too much through injuries at Barca

He’s on the bench tonight??? Barca are playing now.

I mean, he's still able to play, but he's not the player he once was and I don't think he'll ever get back there. Hope for his sake I'm wrong, but wasn't convinced by him at Brighton.

Badly need an alternative for kristiansen if Thomas goes. For all the things kristiansen does well just can’t see how we progress to a side capable of regularly beating the drop with him in the side. Some of the things he does are completely brain dead.
