Though less likely, I'm hoping we might be able to get a couple of loans done too by kickoff.
If we are to get 8 players, then a mix of something like 4 permanent / 4 loans seems plausible enough.
I'd like us to get our main business done first but even so there is the likely prospect that we will be in the market for quite a few more on loan right up to the deadline. Then there is always the risk of things falling though last minute and leaving us thin still.
It's important we get it right as far as loans are concerned too with the amount of work that needs doing. They will simply have to make some impact and not be like Broja and Lindstrom.
