Couldn't make it yesterday but managed to watch all 90 mins on Sky
Fantastic performance by the lads but looked like Whelan switched off for a second and lost his man for their first goal.
Got me thinking about how we could reasonably improve the team. I genuinely see the following team for the Man C home game
Sorronson New Right Back, Ab Faye, Shawcross, Higgy Lawrence Delap Ledley Etherington Fuller Beattie
Can see a slightly different team for away games: Sorro New Right Back, Ab Faye, Shawcross, Higgy Delap Daio Ledley Etherington Mama, Beattie (Ricky to come on if we're struggling at 60 min mark)
I really don't think we are that far off a cracking side now!

that wont be the team to face man city. deadline day is 2nd feb. so i can se us getting 2 loans deadline day. cant see pulis only playing 1 tank, so delap and ledley looks a bit unrealistic. lawrence and delap for right wing i think, diao or amdy for 1 centre mid space. then maybe whelan or a signing for the other. strikers look good pairings. allthough a quick striker is what we need. maybe just a loan bid for a player from top 5 or 6 yeh full back cover is urgent i think. that should be next signing

Forget Ledley - no Prem experience. He is not what we need at the moment, too young and inexperienced for such a key role. Also it would not be fair to put him in such a pressure cooker at this stage of his career.

Which highlights a problem I have had for ages if we buy a creative centre mid in the mould of Bullard/Ledley you have to either drop Rory or Liam depending on the opponents.
Diao is too valuable IF FIT not to play in the space in front of the back four.
Which is why all the best teams in the prem have attacking fullbacks to help push the mids up.
SHOPPING LIST #1 Creative FB with excellent distribution ideally pace and of course solid defensively.
#2 Creative CM good engine, excellent distribution 15-30 yd passes, can run box to box for 90mins also chips in with 5 goals per season.
NICE TO HAVE: 1 more forward.

would a loaned full back do until end of season.. and then buy a new one at end if we stay up, keep wilko and griffin in case of relegation.
