With just 2 weeks til the transfer window closes, time is running out for teams to get their business done. Well, not us, seeing as we only sign free agents. But, seeing as its nearly the end of the TW, for this week's Cooks Question, we'd like to hear which players you think could be potential transfer targets for Coventry City. Who do you want to see in a Sky Blues shirt during the 2014/15 season. And no-one say Lionel Messi. Lets keep this realistic haha. We've had some major deals this summer. O'Brien, Swanson, Tudgay, Alsop, Jackson, Johnson, theres been some huge signings, so who could be next? Pressley has already said another striker and a centre back are on his radar and maybe some others too. Get involved before 11.30AM Thursday morning if you want your answer read out on Sports Lounge on Thursday. If you don't want your answer read out on the radio, please say so. Sports Lounge returns from the Summer break this Thursday from 10AM til 12 Noon on Hillz FM (98.6), so tune in if you can. Thanks again for your incredible support

I would personally love to see the brentford midfielder in as he looks a beast. If not him then a massive cm.

St Ledger is a shout, however he's a notorious big time charlie and a) thinks he's better than he is, therefore he'd never drop into league one and b) he'd want at least 10k a week

I know there is always a clamour for us to re-sign players that we have previous had, but Alex Nimely was released by Man C and i think is still without a club. I know he only scored once for us and hasn't excastly got a prolific goal scoring record, but his pace alone could be devastating in league 1.

That said with the signing on jackson perhaps we need a different type of player... But imagine the impact from the bench against tired legs!

Nimely would cause an awful lot of problems for defenders in this division. Maybe he wouldn't score loads, but he'd certainly get a lot of 'assists'. As I recall from watching him at the Ricoh, he had very quick feet and in this division would probably be awarded plenty of free kicks because of mistimed or clumsy challenges.

We need to get rid of Connor Thomas, and if SP doesn't want Baker and Barton then we need to get rid of them too.

In their place, we need three central midfielders, another winger and a centre half.

Of course, CT will likely stay and with nobody to come in and take Baker & Barton off our hands, it's likely we'll only need one more CM. We do need another CB though.

Thomas is younger than several of our other players that came through at the same time. He needs taking out the firing line, not releasing.

Why bring in 3 central mids ahead of Fleck, O'Brien and Swanson and why bring in a winger when we're playing 352?

We need more CBs, at least 2, one with pace, a DM to come in for Thomas and maybe a RWB, though I'd give Phillips a go. We could get away with 1 CB and moving Clarke inside if we do buy one in though.

I'd go for a right wing back, centre back and midfielder. Move Clarke back to centre back

Anything else would be a bonus
