Looking at it and the threads about loanees etc, I am of the opinion that perhaps for the first time in a long time, we dont actually need any players. And should we get any, it may upset the current players and knock our good form? I know a team is never perfect but ours is bloody good atm and as they say "if it aint broke dont fix it?"

i see your point but if fuller gets injured, lawrence etc then we begin to have problems. The best teams have both a quality first team and a quality reserve team. We still are crying out for some pace, the next two games will be interesting as we will have to breakdown these teams as they will probably play for a draw.

Yeah, granted, but if we are to get people in, we HAVE to ship out the deadwood, ie Pericard, Matteo, Broomes and possibly even Parkin although the jury is still out imo.

Well, there's a fair bit of flexibility there aswell with players like Cresswell and Gally, Griff,Pugh and Delap all able to play in a couple of different positions competently...not forgetting 'star' strikers in the making Corty and Shawx(just jesting no1stokie...I know how you love us girls commenting on such things ) If we were able to get another striker such as Earnshaw/Zamora(I think not but still )we'd seem quite formidable to our opposition before we even got on the pitch(like West Brazil ;D) Confidence is a massive plus in any team and scared opposition just adds to the enjoyment. We can but dream Still loving that picture no1 ;D

I think it could be bad luck now if you managed to change it don't you? It's obviously sticking on in there for a reason.....and it gives the me something pleasant to look at! ;D

as for your point although we have flexibilty, in gally/cressy/delap, we need cover for players such as fuller and lawrence, and our lack of pace in the team is a bit concerning

Fuller is out on his own though so no-one's going to be able to replace what he can offer...not for our money anyway. Lenny's a miss but we can juggle midfield. I guess it's a case of having back-up combinations ready. Cressy and Gally? Gally and Parkin up front??

i know what your saying but a player LIKE earnshaw could be the ideal replacement for fuller if he was injured for a few games

I absolutely agree but generally I'm happy with our squad and haven't been able to utter those words for some time Get Earnshaw and we really could be the dogs danglies

If Fuller or Lawrence were suspended or injured and missed 1 or 2 games i think we'd get by, with a bit of juggling. Now we have Gally, that one extra attacking player gives us some strength in depth. One more loanee and we'd be really well covered!!
