How can the club be content with the current squad. Where is the urgency to get better?

Although I’d probably take another points deduction of it means we can buy full backs

There has to be at least one signing this window RB obviously. We desperately need to boost the squad. Really need both fullbacks a striker too perhaps a centre mid. Doubt we will get those but if we can sort RB position that will make a huge difference especially someone who bombs on good at crossing and obviously defending we can’t go on with JOB in the position he’s trying his best but he is woeful in the position

We can't be that close that like a single loan deal or something pushes us over the limit.

If we are in that position, then that makes last summers business somehow look even worse

 

[Tel001]

Any chance we might recall Dele from his loan?

Still can’t believe we paid 20m for him

Thing is though FFP goes in the Summer so surely the club have already adjusted budget/transfer plans to fit in with the new system.

Bold of you to assume they’re thinking about something that’s more than 1 month in the future.

Plus the history of January signings generally, and for ourselves in particular, doesnt exactly scream success.

Oh my word that bench today, two thirds of clubs in the Championship probably have a stronger bench than that.

Dereliction of duty if we don’t bring anyone in this month.

I still can’t believe that Gbamin isn’t still on the payroll somewhere. Not that he’s be any use today, as he’d be injured still

The bench is only that way because we’re missing so many players mate.

I really can't understand how people can't see this.
We have 7/8 players unavailable who would be in out matchday squad. You can argue about the quality of some of them. But 20 first team players is about right . Bar full back we have enough players. Are they good enough. A different question

We have money to spend. Even Moyes has said that - it just has to be the 'right deal.'

 

[Delargeinho]

They are owned by an analytics expert who knows exactly what he's doing, same as Brighton. We've struggled ever since the Premier League was formed, as it gave money to smaller clubs and stopped us buying all if their best players for a reasonable price.

Overall, we did good business in the last few years with the money invested:

Pickford, Tarkowski, Alcaraz, Ndiaye, Garner, O Brien, Branthwaite, Gueye would count McNeil all of them from 0-30m. However, we seem to have a bad hand when it comes to striker signings that can contribute 10+ goals every season.

Apart myb from Richarlison or Lukaku, DCL at the start.
