Surely there are better options, if you're brining him in on loan with the view to develop, he's likely going to be second choice behind JDS. We need someone to come in and improve us as first choice.
First choice would be Giles but I see your points. I do think he could be first choice but he hasn’t played first team football since last year. Would need some bedding in time

This is going to be a really tricky window. It just seems a waste of a loan unless they are better than what we have, and we are going to offload someone. Bidwell would be the obvious choice given his age and where he is in his contract, but then your losing your only really experienced player and our best left back, which then weakens the team / squad.

To be fair since finding out he’s out of contract would just hope to sign Vale and hope Chelsea release him for us to free wages up.

But I get your point and think it’ll be tricky as it always is in January. Found an article on Chelsea loan players which was interesting to give us an idea.

I think they forget he bought in Harry Wilson from Liverpool and Andy King from Leicester on loan too. Derby wasn't made up of Chelsea Kids.

And you are only allowed a max of 2 from a club.

Better make the two count then. Also you’re right in that it can’t all be one club. Frank has decent contacts around the prem as I would imagine Edward’s does from the England role.

I'd say Tavares and Allen if they can be replaced by an upcoming attacking midfielder and an experienced defender.

Fk me some of you lot hate on so many of our players. One or two need an upgrade, but most are ok. Some are being slagged and have been here two minutes, give them a chance ffs.

I'd move on Collins but with no takers I suspect it will be Wilson who goes. Dovin will be No1.

Defensively we need an extra centre half, would move only one on but not sure which. Can't believe some of the stick Thomas is getting and think he'll play at the top level. MVE is decent. Bidwell more than good enough, but would look to upgrade at some point and move JDS on.

Midfield we need some help. Sheaf is our best but can't stay fit. We need one more regardless. I'd move on Allen. We could add a creative 10 but depends on the system deployed, Rudi and Torp both decent for that. Out wide we have Tats, Ephron, Wright and Raphael (eventually) all good there. Up top Simms, BTA & Bassette is fine. Move on Tavares.


In short, the only ones I'd exit: keeper, JDS, 1xCB, Allen, Tavares. Bring in FB cover, 1xCB, 1xCM, 1xAM

Certainly doesnt need an overhaul in the squad. A few tweaks, hopefully add some steel and experience, then improve what we have.
If we brought in some better quality players in the positions you mention it would hopefully up the games of what we have to another level
