A big cm , to really take a game by the scruff of the neck ?
We have money in the kitty , so let’s make a statement signing ?

Probably the sensible thing to do. We are still the favourites to go up and we’re unlikely to sign many players who will be good enough for the Prem while still in the Champ.i’d imagine we won’t make any permanent signings this window
Unless we went all in, like a Le Fee signing for Sunderland. Agree it's unlikely (unaffordable?) though.Probably the sensible thing to do. We are still the favourites to go up and we’re unlikely to sign many players who will be good enough for the Prem while still in the Champ.
Who have we been linked with, Neil and O'Nien? I suppose it's possible we'd look at a combative centre-mid next if we are still after more players, especially if Andrews gets loaned out.
He will be going out on loanI honestly think Andrews has a part to play this season, he’s looked very assured when he’s come on and reminds me a bit of Jude Bellingham in the way he plays
I think he’ll be a cracking talent with the right management
I like the look of him too, just not sure Lampard sees him high enough up the order to get many minutes. I think if we bring another CM in it's going to be someone to compete with our first choices and possibly give us something different to what we have. Id not be too surprised if we dont sign anyone further at all though.I honestly think Andrews has a part to play this season, he’s looked very assured when he’s come on and reminds me a bit of Jude Bellingham in the way he plays

Agreed. A PL CM loan would be ideal.
Who uses him a bit more.I honestly think Andrews has a part to play this season, he’s looked very assured when he’s come on and reminds me a bit of Jude Bellingham in the way he plays

Normal starters are Grimes, Torp & Rudoni.
Rudoni's has cover with Eccles & BTA when fit.
Jamie Allen & Eccles are covering Torp/Grimes.
To me, it feels light and I would like one more in there.
lol - he’s not at the level we needI honestly think Andrews has a part to play this season, he’s looked very assured when he’s come on and reminds me a bit of Jude Bellingham in the way he plays

Feels harsh... but when he came on, on Sunday, it felt like his role was to immediately give the ball to the adults.lol - he’s not at the level we need
It’s true though. He’s a promising player but that doesn’t mean he’s good enough for us to trust him in big games.Feels harsh... but when he came on, on Sunday, it felt like his role was to immediately give the ball to the adults.
If we’re going to sign a permanent CM it needs to be someone who is a guaranteed PL starter and can hit the ground running - with 20 games left we don’t have the luxury of waiting five or six games for them to get up to speed. I don’t see the point of a permanent backup who will be obsolete in 20 games’ time.
A loan or short-term contract could be merited if we let one of our existing backups leave, but would they really be better than what we’ve already got?
Dan Neil never made sense to me on a permanent. It’s effectively a 6 month loan and back in the toy box.Can see Dan Neil or another permanent signing of the same ilk or better
Various people over the past few weeks have talked about a backup.If they’re better than what we have then there’s a point. Who is talking about a backup? We need a player who can do what Torp does for the half a season he’s not fit at least.

I’m all for splashing the cash on CCFC 2.0 but unless they’re going to make an impact from the jump then I think there’s limited benefit to doing it now rather than in the summer.
