I sympathise. But a lot of fans expectation seems to outweigh the reality of the opportunity this window gives?

I think you can only judge after two summer transfer windows. But with a lot of deadwood going in summer we have a lot to do. But the more you have to sign in my book increases the chance of failures. Lets be honest recruitment in any sector/profession is not an exact science.

Even if you have concerns you can look can look forward to it.

Personally I dont rate Dabo. But based on performances against Norwich I would have him a head of Norton Cuffy; who looked weak defensively, positionally naive and suprisingly lacking in pace.

Sometimes the player profiles you want just are not out there and available. Loans are a default option. But can and have previously added to tje squad. Our recent form is worrying but our over all position decent. Doyle and Panzo have practically been ever present.

Players or total wage bill?

Because January is a shit time to build a squad. If you are lucky you might find one player, with right ability, but at an inflated price.

Having loans in the squad is not a bad way of bolstering squad. Can be part funded by their parent club, can be motivated at the opportunity and it can be a longterm strategy to bring someone in permanently; try before you buy. But like anything you have to do your homework and back it up with...

You are lined up for managers job arent you?

Gus can play there, but wasted in that posistion for us has too much ability. He needs a free role in midfield. Defend when he has too push forward more attacking when we can. He is intelligent enough as a footballer to be midfield general and know what to do when.

No players are out there that can guarantee goals on our budget. You have to take chances on people. Not sure McGuire is one I would have gambled on. But looks like he needs a break and he has six months to prove he can take it. Of course it is not all about goals. Assists, making space for...

At City it never rains it pours. So as long as King can afford those waterproof sticky plasters it will be an upgrade.

Give it 2 games and people will demanding we sign Waghorn in the summer.

You are not limited to 5 loans just can only have 5 in matchday squad. His contract is up in summer - who knows a deal to sign now might be worked out by the clubs.

Panzo has allowed attackers and midfield players to run in behind him all season, even when McFadz was there. He has cost us a couple of goals at least and got away with alot more. His pace can get him out of trouble but it is still bad defending. His strength is bringing the ball out but...

If you cant find one how do you look for two? Unless you look for one and spot two?

Ok we could have gone above Norwich if we had won today. How Norwich are in that position is a mystery with players they have? Better than us all across the park. Their first touch to a man is better than ours and it buys them valuable seconds with every pass to keep their composure. We have...

I thought Panzo was suspended for 3 games?

Nothing. It is just fact that parent clubs like to manage and treat any complex or lengthy injury to a player.

Has to be registered with EFL mid day before the match. So the deal would have to be done before then.
