There has already been suggestions that any deals will be in the same vain, It wouldn't surprise me if nothing much happens and we end up trying to juggle Dom's fitness till the end of the season.
If this is the case, we're pretty much accepting that relegation may be a strong possibility, as we'd be relying on others to not get themselves over the line.
Not scoring goals is our biggest problem; to be safe, we need to rectify that. Regardless of whether it's Lampard or not, we need a finisher as a minimum.
Ideally, we'd get a goalscorer up top, a wider player who'll possess an attacking threat alongside some goals, and Dom comes back to fitness.
As I've said earlier, I think that'd be enough to push us to a mid-table position, let alone safety. The real problem is that a striker isn't as likely as we're hoping.
A wider player and Dom being fit are even further from reality. The only hope is that Thelwell made big changes at the back and midfield, and can do it again.
