Bin 5 at the back

Sign at least one if not two quality wingers in jan so we can always play 433

Bring in another attacking midfielder to challenge Rudoni and move Allen down the pecking order.

Make wright earn his spot

Lati to be used in emergencies only

Use KKH as the back up to Dasilva ahead of Bidwell or Brau.

We’ve got a great chance this season but we need to be proactive now.

A striker to get us over the line. Like Moore did with Ipswich 2 years ago.

2 wingers are a must. An absolute must.

And another midfielder so I don’t have to pretend Allen is good enough because he has ‘energy’.

Need 4 minimum really if we want to give it a proper go and all of the right quality. RW, LW, AM, CM. A ST or LB or even DM would be ideal but those four bare minimum. We can’t be starting Jamie Allen and Josh Eccles or having to change formation just to give players a rest.

I standby that we need a Winger who covers both sides, a Central Midfielder who can play in the 8/10 role and a Striker.

They’re urgently needed.

Brau and Joel shouldn't be anywhere near our 11. They aren't at this level, faitplay to them they give it everything but they just aren't good enough.

Rudoni and Wright just arent adding anything at the moment, which is a form related.

We need a left back and a midfielder that can play in the 8/10 role.

JDS will be back for Birmingham, what is this demand for a LB to replace a player who has been brilliant all season.

Edit: Various fans are demanding a LB, bit think it’s based on Bidwell and Brau being not at the level of JDS

He's rotated today to save players for Sunday, at least half of those on the pitch today are not of the necessary quality for a staring 11 and it showed. I can live with Eccles starting but Allan isn't the type of midfielder that can win you matches. Let's hope we have some players inbound as today's performance showed it's needed. That pitch didn't help either but we need BTA back as quick as possible.

Brau is a clown and needs to be out of the squad now. Bidwell can’t even get a game so bring a new LB to compete with JDS.

Wright is not a starter for us. Either someone buys him or he becomes a bench player. He’s a waste of space.

We need a striker urgently in this window. Not big lumps like we currently have.

We need a creative playmaker urgently.

We need wingers as well.

Primarily, we need to find some composure.

New players are all very well, but if they are coming into a team playing poorly, there's only so much of a difference they can make.

For a Striker I really like Ivanovic from Millwall, but he’s young so might be a bit pricey.

But we’ve dropped 2 points today against a poor Charlton side. Birmingham are better.

If wright scores today all talk is about both strikers dangerous etc

Talk of needing new striker is premature

Simms or wright will get us over the line. Wingers is what we need to be able to rotate and a centre mid so don't need to play Allen. He did alright today but we want better

It was a good ball into him but his first touch make it more difficult and then his strike was terrible.

I'm convinced early season Wright scores that so what has happened to him between then and now?

I just don't see us signing a LB when we already have three, plus KKH.

I think we need a RW, CM and CF in that order of priority.

This is my worry with King. I can imagine a scenario where we have one coming in on deadline day at the last minute and that's it.

King is shrewd and I dont think he will want to spend money on players that arent good enough for the prem, if he thinks we can get there with what we have.

I'd be worried if we didn't have a 9 point gap to 3rd. We don't look like a team that's 1st in the league. King must get his chequebook out this month if we are going to make it over the line!

Ultimately us coming second or winning the title means nothing to him, end result is the same. So he’s probably more willing to gamble on us falling off a bit.

I’m not sure I’d ever play BTA in that role and we’ve been crying out for someone who can make the ball stick when we’re under the cosh for ages.

Wright is in very poor form.
Simms doing OK.
BTA obviously out at the moment, don't know when he'll be back and his goals have come from out wide anyway.
