We don't need to sign any players in January

We need a left winger/wing back and I would like to get in a big target man just to give us that option even just from the bench.
 
imho.

Good enough squad as it is. Maybe an extra CB would be handy, but we're good enough to survive with this squad. I don't think Borini or Lens have settled just yet, and I reckon AJ has a few outstanding performances in his locker still. Plenty to come from a few of these lads. As long as we stay injury-free then I think we'll be alright.

Anyone disagree and think we need to splash the cash?
I am sure that if BSA could get the players he wanted, then he would definitely make some changes. He's already commented that what is likely to be available may not be what he wants though.
 
Centre half and a left back for definite.

Also, if we are going to play with 3CMs rather than 2 DMs and a "Number 10" we need to bring another CM in! We are 2 injuries (or an injury and a suspension) away from a midfield 3 of Larsson, Gomez and Rodwell!
 
I said a while ago that on paper we had a canny team and the players were just massively under performing. We could still do with another couple of players but IF we didn't sign any one, we should have enough to stay up, I would rather not take that risk like and just a couple of signings would make us a lot more comfortable.

I'd agree that the majority of the team is fine but who are we going to play at centre half if oshea, coates or kaboul gets injured? We desperately need cover there.
 
We need a centre back, I would be surprised if we sign two. No chance we will have 6 in the squad. As for centre mid it might take one of Larson, Gomez or Rodwell to go first.

Agree attacking wise. Allardyce is kicking them up the arse. Defensively we are short. Centre half either as cover or as 1st teamer. Possibly get a striker on loan with view to permanent in summer as we will have hardlys any strikers by the summer.
 
What? And deny the folks on here the opportunity to pass easy judgement and post the word " underwhelmed" ?
 
It's just as pertinent to see who we can ship out.

E.g. We don't need:

Brown - daft decision to renew contract for this season.
Rodwell - I don't think he will ever make it here.
Graham - a trier but not good enough.

Now that we have abandoned the Advocaat 4-3-3 we could also sell a midfielder as Borini, Johnson, Lens, Watmore, Gomez aren't all needed. We can't change the entire team so I expect Larsson and Cattermole to be around for a while. Personally of those I'd peddle Gomez and possibly Lens as he has re-sale value. In hindsight we could have used the Borini cash elsewhere.

All opinions, like and still dependent on Johnson legal situation.
 
Expect James Collins to be the first through the door.
 
We win two on the bounce and we have a good squad capable of staying up?

Two weeks ago we were certs for the drop. We are a really poor team that clearly needs quality adding in every area of the pitch.
