We will do nothing other than a last minute free/loan centre forward, maybe a left back on similar terms.   You know things are bad when nobody can be bothered to throw some random Scandinavians around.  I’ve come to terms with the fact that we’ll probably get a few loans and that’s it.  As I watch other clubs snap up the likes of August Priske, Thomas Jorgensen and Eivind HellandÂ

AS78UK Posted 11 January Posted 11 January Wonder if we could get Ross Barkley on loan to give us that creative spark in the number 10 role.   4
ronnup Posted 11 January Posted 11 January Ward Prowse would do well in the Championship, and someone who can take a set piece would be a bonus 1
Lambert09 Posted 13 January Posted 13 January If we sell fatawu I’d love for us to sign Reyes Cleary from Barnsley. He’s 21 and and unreal, although I think he prefers playing on the leftÂ
coolhandfox Posted 13 January Posted 13 January We could need a CB with Wout moving, we only have Vestergaard, Okoli and Nelson, 3 seems a little tight with Souttar unlikely to be fit any times soon! 1

FoxesWalk Posted 13 January Posted 13 January (edited) I’d like to write down somewhere that if we had competent people in our boardroom a playoff run from this position is more than possible even with Marti. But it would require shifting the likes of Winks, Soumare, Faes and signing a new striker, left back and probably centre back with the quality to improve the starting XI. A CAM to replace Ramsey would also be ideal, but I’d like to see us try Page more often.  We don’t have competent people in many decision making positions, and I fully expect us to finish bottom half, probably close to the relegation zone with a points deduction. Edited 13 January by FoxesWalk 2

brownboy93 Posted 14 January Posted 14 January When you keep wanya & kasey instead of him ..when does the torture end Jeff?
Aleksz Posted 14 January Posted 14 January Wouldn’t be a good shout if available on loan - but feel we’re pretty set in midfield right now and Neil wouldn’t accept a bit part role.Â
South Shire Fox Posted 14 January Posted 14 January (edited) A mobile LB is a priority signing imo. Absolutley nothing there minus Luke Thomas who plays like hes just smoked a packet of Malborough. None of Ricardo, Choudhury or Thomas are mobile or willing runners from full back which limits us massively.  A striker a close second if hes not prepared to give Evans a chance  CM 3rd  Edited 14 January by South Shire Fox

JimJams Posted 14 January Posted 14 January Given we have fxxk all for this level at the moment, let alone in the summer, then a good to excellent Champ level striker would be a bit of a coup. Whether that's Fofana is another question. He still has a long contract (2029) so it'd be interesting to see what Chelsea want for him.
SB87_LCFC Posted 15 January Posted 15 January Could be totally off the mark here with this shout, but would anyone take Troy Parrott? 19 goals in 24 games this season. Surely he isn't going to break the bank?
