Saint Garrett

What do we "need"? Arguably a RB, AM, ST. Possibly a wide player too. We're not going to get them all in Jan, so maybe just a ST...we need to find a solution at RB though (Byram?) Top scorers in the championship...any of them worth a pop? Can't see Austin going anywhere until he's a free agent in the summer and can pocket himself a nice signing on fee. Andre Gray Burnley 15 Ross McCormack Fulham 13 Charlie Austin Queens Park Rangers 10 Nick Blackman Reading Fernando Forestieri Sheffield Wednesday Alan Judge Brentford Benik Afobe Wolverhampton Wanderers 9 Moussa Dembélé Fulham Abel Hernández Hull City Jonathan Kodjia Bristol City Chris Martin Derby County Jordan Rhodes Blackburn Rovers Bamford wouldn't be an awful shout I don't think for a season long loan assuming we get rid of Caulker....

------------Steklenberg Cedric Fonte Van Dijk Bertrand --------Wanyama Clasie------- JWP----------Mane----------Davis --------------Long---------------- Play Cedric, give him the protection in JWP, Mane central with Long. Plus it's my birthday tomorrow so a win would be a nice way to celebrate it.

Bit of a liability then if he'll never be able to last 90 mins! Hopefully with a better pre season, he bulks up a bit and becomes the player we all want him to become.

He's class....as is Bojan.

Bought my tickets a while ago...where are they? I noticed I have to get on a bus on the way back....not ideal...!

Still more than Man Utd have got in December....!

Will be drinking in the Coach and Horses - brews its own beer - worth a visit for ale drinkers!

I can't be the only one who thinks this lad can't be any worse than the current lot....at least he'll get stuck in. Thought Clasie was good yesterday, but think I'd still prefer Reed. Is there off field issues with him? Not really sure why he's not been given a chance this season, especially as Ron said about if there are two players on the same level, then the club will choose the academy player. Was fantastic in those few games he played last year.

Sanchez vs Cedric....

Thought Clasie was very good first half yesterday. His best display thus far. Unfortunately he had Wanyama next to him who was sh!t!!

Still ours...

Agree - fans should be up for it. A good start and we have a chance.

Ha crikey...maybe they just want to weaken their relegation rivals?!

Im guessing he's not talking about transfer fee....isn't he on about £90k/week at QPR?! He'll wait til the summer and then take a payrise and a big signing on fee probably....

When did I say that? Koeman clearly plays him there because he thinks he'll do a better job than Cedric, which is hardly surprising as he gets shoved off the ball and is usually hopelessly out of position.

If you think it's that simple then I'd be surprised, especially at that level.

Koeman said he was too expensive at the evening I went to the other week.

Poor bloke, stuck out of position, with Mane in front of him giving him b*gger all protection.... I do feel for him, he's absolutely fine as a third choice CB at the level we are at.

Last few years I'd say no...this year, I'd say yes. We need some more attacking threat, he has a bit of pace, and he shouldn't be too expensive either, and can take a shot from outside of the box, which is a rarity in our side.

Can't see anything but a loss sadly....we're crap, and they're good.

Problem is, I'm not sure we've actually played well once at SMS this year...not for 90 minutes anyway.

Yeah, agree - West Ham are racking up the injuries too, so we should have a decent chance of getting a result. Missing Valencia, Sakho, Payet, Lanzini, Reid and Moses...

Worst comedian I've ever seen by a mile.

Basically said that if we are to bring in anyone it will be a striker - when asked about Austin he said "too expensive" - maybe slightly tongue in cheek though!

A top evening..... 1st priority......bringing in a striker
