Two or three players of good quality is probably realistic.
There must be some decent ones struggling to break into PL teams that would potentially look at us and our position in the table, and see it as an opportunity to play there again next season.
I suspect Doug and the management will be taking it seriously, as I think the squad at the moment, whilst brilliant, is still a bit too thin to gamble with for the second half of the season as it is.

Not very many I’d guess. Our squad depth must be pretty good if we’re top of the league by miles regardless.

We could try and see if Brandon Thomas-Asante is available from Coventry

There’s the Sheaf money just sitting there for exactly that purpose
I can’t believe you don’t trust the squad that’s currently bossing the league even through major injury problems that are about to abate

Yeah I just really don't get the notion of not doing it. It's not going to upturn the apple cart, give players the rest they need and hopefully see us over the line.
The only person whos got incentive not to want to do it is Bling and anyone in his will.

I don’t think we should spend money on a player worse than Grimes just so we can give a break to a player who notoriously never needs a break

If he gets injured we play one of our other CMs - they’re also good. He never gets injured btw
Let’s save the money and squad positions for players who can play in the Premier League, not for Championship backups

I think he may be blings lover and concerned if he keeps spending he's not going to get as much cash in his will.
I do think there are one or two places where we could do with another option. I just think there has been a consistent underestimation all season of how capable some of our squad players are - yesterday included - that Is making people want to fritter away resources out of nerves on a squad that is already head and shoulders above the competition.
We have a much bigger squad building operation in six months time, we shouldn’t tinker around the edges now.
What happens if we don’t sign three players? We just punt on the season and prepare for the playoffs? I think this squad is more than capable of going the distance.
long way home

Nothing changes, yesterday only showed that we have capable players in depth on the defensive side of the squad. We still need 2 wide attacking players and another center mid.
Our position will definitely help in the recruiting side of things. So i expect 3 quality signings, perms, loans as well as extensions of current squad players to be announced.

Those wanting Hamer to return have obviously not seen the Lampard interview on the importance of training ….
In short he says you have 3 types of players …
1) Those that train with intensity and set the standards
2) Those who can train with intensity if set the right example
3) Those that can’t sustain training with intensity
The key is to remove the last group from the club quickly as they tempt the middle group to lower their standards too.
