I like dumping on other clubs signings and i've not seen a lot that's impressed me this Jan so far, but i do think Mehmeti is a very good signing for Ipswich.

Ipswich after Imran Louza as well as Mehmeti

It'll never change, it is too far gone and it is hypocritical as if we go up and come back down we won't whinge at doing the same - But football is broken if clubs like Ipswich can just throw money like that about in the second tier

Mehmeti has joined Ipswich - because they were clearly struggling for attackers.

Reported £3m fee for a guy with 6 months left on his contract

Worth the £3m for his output if it guarantees them an auto spot

Sort of signings we should be making

Middlesbrough and Ipswich done some good business so far.

There was me thinking they've already assembled a mega squad and they're busy raiding clubs in January as well. Will probably come straight back down with another Championship dream team

Before we got Yang and Esse on loan I would've agreed. But his best positions in our system would be LW and CAM where we have multiple good options at the moment.

If we don’t strengthen further I think it’ll be extremely disappointing

Still think it was worth it...loan players are temporary fixes....when they go back, we're short again.
We could have bought an excellent young player worth £10m for £3m...that's if he'd have wanted to come to a club top of league.

It looks like it's mostly based on a team's PPG so far this season with a few tweaks. For some team's, including us, it's been rounded down. For others, including Ipswich, it's been rounded up slightly.

And then they go back, and we buy premier league quality players in the summer.

IF we get promoted, we can (at worst) flog the now contracted player who only cost £3m to an ambitious championship club for £10m.
The assumption by some, that we're already promoted, is a bit arrogant.
Don't get me wrong, we're in a great position, but there's lots of battles ahead, and anything can happen.

That’s mad although they’ll go up so he’s in the prem

Mehmeti instead of Yang would have been a statement of intent.

Whether we're Premier League or Championship next season, we'll need a major squad overhaul anyway.

A major rebuild is happening in the summer anyway whatever the outcome

If we fail to go up this squad will have reached the end of it's cycle 2022/23 style - Milan, Wright and a few others go - Zero chance of Rushworth coming back

If we go up a fair few won't make the grade in the Prem

Tis the way football is unfortunately
