I was told he was joining us last summer, we are very keen.

Less than a year younger than Will Alves. Will Alves has experience on loan at championship level, England youth team call ups etc despite having an ACL injury and Heskey has none of that.

 

Would have been a bizarre decision to loan Heskey instead of playing Alves, typical grass is greener syndrome.

If we want to scrape a play off place by the end of the season then its still largely the same situation as we needed in pre season.

 

striker (sack the person that thought carranza was the answer)

 

number 10 (shock and disbelief we put all our hope in Ramsey when he just came back from 18 months out)

 

left back. 
 

 

I know the rest of the team is far from perfect but these are certainly the weakest spots.

That’s a tricky one to get during the January window, despite how obviously important this glaring missing piece of the puzzle is.

 

We’d probably have to go for a loan deal of a young forward from a Premier League club (Jaden Heskey for example), but of course there’s no guarantees that it work out as we all hope.

Any prolific Championship goalscorers currently out of favour in the Prem or abroad we might stand a chance of getting? 

Joël Piroe? 19 Goals, 7 assists last season, and was consistent years before that. Just 270 minutes and 0 goal contributions this year. We were apparently interested before Leeds got him.

Yeah he'd be the obvious choice.

If we are in with any kind of chance of promotion come January (post-Dec form + possible points deduction) then we should be doing everything we can to get Piroe on loan with an option.

What if Jakub’s got a serious groin tear and is out for 3 months?

That's a distinct possibility !!

I’d definitely ask Leeds if piroe on loan was an option. He’s not getting much of a sniff there and they might try to bring in someone else in Jan.

I was tracking this lad in 2023/24 where he was very impressive before his serious injury. Looks like he is over thst now this season and should be our number one priority. The problem is though we don't seem to have any money to commit to permanent transfers.
