Etherington is what we What been crying out for years let alone this season and will be a good signing for us. My point is that if he gets injured we are back to square one and the same problem will exist. A loan move for Sinclair or Moses at Palace (wide players who can cover both flanks) is a necessity for us. Losing lawrence or Matty will stuff us badly

I'd assume if we are still in for Ledley (as is said to be the case) that he will be first choice in centre mid and as cover for the left wing.

soares and tonge can do a job on either wing and the ledley deal if it comes off will give us great midfield and wing cover.

I don't think we need to no. Etherington and Lawrence will provide great balance and Soares and Tonge have got to be the back up considering we spent that money on them. Danny Pugh is also there as well.

Soarses and Tongue are both centre midfielder players and 'doing a job ' or 'filling in'at this level is suicide. Ledley cenre mis and then playing on left when needed , yes, but we defo need cover and some centre midfielders need shipping out.

I'm surprised that people are suggesting that Tonge and Soares would be cover for Etherington and Lawrence.
If that's the case why has Pulis been playing a pretty woeful Cresswell and at times completely crocked Delap in those positions in Lenny's and Matty's absence so far this season?
Ledley would be a massive signing for us in so many ways.

I think Ledley would still be a fantastic signing. We have a great chance of surviving the dreaded "first season" and we need to build towards next season, not just buy with a survival mentality. Ledley is young, versatile and along with Etherington and Tongue will give some much needed depth to the squad.
