Fox is ok but we should be doing better. Keeping him would be pretty crap and I quite like him. This window? Keep him Summer perhaps Sorry meant when his contract is up in the summer.

Seems to be confirmed that Dykes has been hopitalised for pneumonia, so he's off the lists

I think we still need 4 in. 1Kilkenny replacement (Pearson) 2 winger (canos/Murphy/redmond) 3 LCB (open to suggestions) 4 target man But that’s a hell of a turnover in a January window, and no guarantees we will actually improve, we certainly didn’t last year. We don’t need all those right now though do we? We need a ‘target man’ striker and if Harry goes we’ll need another centre half. The others would be nice but we don’t need them. They can be changed over the summer when the squad will evolve naturally anyway with so many out of contract. That doesn’t mean we won’t get them all in the next few days. It depends how the apples drop and who else leaves. Exactly this. Even if we sell Souttar there's no point panic buying with 12 hours of the window left. The summer is a huge opportunity to rebuild, I'd rather we were patient

I do worry that a. We aren't targeting a target man or b. Who that person will be?.

I think Fox overall has played well since Neil's arrival. Agreed.

Ross Stewart has been stretchered off for Sunderland, just incase we had any ambitions of signing him with the potential Souttar money.
George Johnson also went off injured at half time for Bolton.

I suppose that when I say Fox has done well, it's a pretty low bar that I'm judging him on!

Some rumours that Lyndon Dykes has got pneumonia - so that one looks off as a possibility. As has been mentioned, Newcastle wingers and Burnley strikers look a good (if expensive) possibility, with their recent additions, maybe if we get the Souttar money in and want experience? Barnes is being linked with Swansea. 33 year-old strikers aren't really an answer though, are they? Not when they can go to shit at any point. www.burnleyexpress.net/sport/football/burnley-fc/burnley-stalwart-linked-with-late-january-exit-as-striker-eyes-permanent-move-away-4003767Whether we'd want to go down that route, long-term, after the Vokes experience is questionable. Can't see there being anything in that Van Hooijdonk rumour, probably just agent-driven tittle-tattle as he's being offered around? Don’t rule out Barnes to everton for 12 months

So how many more incomings are we expecting?. If nothing happens with Souttar I expect Redmond to come in and nobody else. If Souttar goes I expect Redmond plus a CB and CF. If Kilkenny goes back I'd expect a CM as well.

I thought we had established Redmond is a non starter, even if it ever was.

Quick check on Google: redmond started and scored for besiktas last week, yesterday he wasn’t even in their squad! Coincidence??
