We have only lost once in the last seven games during which time we have had at least six first choice players out injured.
This would suggest our squad is capable of maintaining our position in the league without new additions.
If this is an acceptable statement then our signings should only be players that strengthens our team as the 25 are good enough.
So what type of player should we be signing in January?

We need players in every position. A chronic lack of recent investment has left us short in every department. Thats down to the board, I doubt they’ll address the situation in January

If that is the case you would sign another 11 players making our 25 into 36. Is this a wise move ?

We don't need any, we need players back from injury and for Wickham to stay free from injury.

Even if we had a fully fit squad we are still a right back ,a winger and a forward short . With the current injuries I think a left back should be added to that .

We have adequate players available to play in all these positions if necessary and anyway where is the funds for this

I would agree we need another right back and try to find an alternative goal scoring striker , if they exist for what we are prepared to pay! I think we have cover already for our left back position in Riedewald.

personally i would rather we blood a kid before spending money on a striker, that wont happen tho...if we can sell bentekkers or wickham then thats fair game tho get another striker in.

personally, we cant sign players because we have
injuries...we have kelly & jairo playing because we have multiple injuries, if we sign players it will bloat the squad.

we havnt faced these selection problems since pardews days, tho if signing players meant roy stays another 2 years its worth the investment.

We are not struggling far from it so the urgency to buy is much reduced, only loans I reckon because they are better bets at this time of season, gambles in January are silly. Injured will come back.

thats not true one bit.

we actually have a well balanced squad, we are however, missing a 20 goal a season striker bit we cant afford one so we may aswell go with what we have.

Agreed but we don’t have good squad depth, we need to invest in a squad not a 1st team. We’re performing far beyond expected
