January Window - Who do we go for ?

Simply red

Well-known member
Early days yes , but we need to be looking for the next signings now we have picked up form .
The only way is up .
Personally , I think we need a leader and captain , who is 1st name on the team sheet .
My choices would be
Michal Helik CH htfc - 5 goals to date
Ladislav Krejci LCH , Sparta Prague , age 24 , a leader and captain . A young Mcnair .
Gabor Szalai , LCH , Hungary . Age 23 , h1.91m
Alex Cochrane , Hearts LB , CM , talented and mobile .
Sam Field CM QPR , talented.
Owen Moxon , CM , Carlisle CM , age 25 .
Luca Connell Barnsley CM .
Beni Baningme CM .
Hector Kyprianou CM DM , Peterborough age 22
Amane Romeo , FC HAcken , CM LM ,age 20 , will go to the top .
Sorba Thomas AM age 24 , decent .
Illias Chair , AM , age 25 , quality .
Pavel Sulc , AM , V Pilsen , top class .
Dennis Eckert Ayensa , CF , age 26 .
Kwame Poku , pufc . AM , CF age 22 .
Bojan Miovski CF Aberdeen , age 24 , 1.89m , talented .
Mica Biereth AFC, on loan at KFC CF age 20 , quality poacher.
Ryan Hardie PAFC CF .age 26.
Mojmir Chytil CF age 24, poacher
Max Kucheriavyi st Johnstone AM age 21 , busy
Daniel Jebison CF age 20 , Josh replica.
Michael Obafemi CF age 23 returning from hamstring so risk ?
4 top players would do for me .
Krejci , Helik
Field / Cochrane /Luca Connell
Sorba / Chair / Sulc
Miovski / Hardie/Biereth / Shankland / Jebison / Obafemi.
Not forgetting we lose Dieng and Glover in January so
Zack Steffen if fit , or David de Gea ( 2 month contract ) or recall one of the 3 loaned out keepers.

Devante Cole mentioned as interest from us and others , surely we won't go for a 28 year old journey man who is at his level ?
Does not fit the model , but , the model has not worked in the last window , so , any suggestions ?

LB Ryan Giles - Luton Town - Loan
RB Ben Johnson - West Ham - Loan
MF Josh Brownhill - Burnley - Loan
 
'The model' clearly isn't working. Maybe we need a new plan?
Why is it clearly not working?

Ramsey - Rogers - 370mins
Akpom - Latte Laff - 318mins
Mowatt - O’Brien - 201mins
Giles - Bangura - 69mins
Archer - Greenwood - 61mins

How long do we give the ‘new plan’

Everyone should have 90 minutes in at least
8 hours is 480 minuites

370min is about 4 games?

10 games.. 900mins? say 1000 minuites?

We’re a way off yet.
 
Josh brownhill will be 3 - 8 mill plus serious wages for anyone looking to get promoted..
He's a top two champ starter.
He's basically a poor man's James Morrison .
 
Probably wont need anybody. By January, Josh and Latte will be top scorers in the Championship, Rogers, Silvera, Jones, Forss, Greenwood, Crooks and Hackney will have 5 goals each. Carrick will be Manager of the month for November and December and will be linked with the ManU job. (y)
Well.. we won’t be able to keep hold of any of them.,
 
Brought this back up to show the difference a 6 game winning run makes .

Rafiu Durosinmi CF age 20 , V Plsen h1.92m the plan 'b'
Dylan Vente CF Hibs age 24, poacher
Max Kucheriavyi st Johnstone AM age 21 , busy
Daniel Jebison CF age 20 , Josh replica.

Chuba on loan would be huge . Bring him home to get us home .
could it happen ? Chuba on loan ?- no chance , Biereth looks a talent though ?

The model has had hiccups , I will re assess in January. Going back to experience has turned us round . We May need nothing , MC has got us playing well and the vibe is top notch , January difference maker needed ? I will let him decide . UTB

As strange as it sounds I wouldn't touch Akpom. 6 month period of stagnation will take him a while to fire up and his confidence will be shot. Don't think we need too much but an extra striker and mobile number 10 would be on my list to Santa.

As I don't play football manager I wouldn't have a clue who this players would be unless To Maderia or Cherno Samba are free
