According to Planet Football we lead the race ahead of Sunderland and Blackburn.

I said on a previous post about him and Cresswell I didn't understand the link and I still don't.
We've just signed Archer, so unless he's going to be playing in one of those three positions behind the front man would we really be going for another loan?

Obviously Muniz hasn't moved on yet but you'd imagine he well. That'd leave us with
Archer, Akpom, Geldhardt, Hoppe, Watmore, Forss, Crooks as the CF options.
Maybe a bit overkill?
 
We need a cf surely we cant go on playing crooks there if we have any ambition of challenging to get out of this division

We've got 6 on the books right now.

I'll accept Akpom playing as a number 10, because he's been a revelation there, but we don't need to be playing Crooks there with who we already have, Carrick just wants to.

Hoppe, Archer, Watmore, Forss and Muniz can all play there.
 
I just can't see another loan center forward.
You'd assume the proffered 4 will be

Archer
Mcgree Akpom Forss

Once Archer is up to speed with Watmore, Crooks and Hoppe as back up.
Obviously still got Isiah Jones, he was back in the squad so maybe his efforts are getting a bit better?

I'd focus on permanent additions and if they don't come off leave it till the summer

Only loan I'd be hoping for is Van Hecke, every chance of him becoming permanent in the summer.

My prediction is. Barlaser, Van Hecke and potentially a surprise wide addition

I think we will get a cf. You only have to look at how Ross Stewart led the line for Sunderland to see how much we would improve. I love Crooksy but he is not the man to do it and clearly MC doesnt think the other are up to it.

Hoppe , and Muniz may leave in the next week , and possibly even Watmore , meaning we would need 3 replacements.
Big big week ahead .
Carrick has no other option to play Crooks there as , Akpom is better behind , and Crooks is not the answer , so , I expect a player in, known Or wild card ?

I think Barleser will be the only one. Heard that the club were going flat out to get Van Heke on loan from Brighton but he was in the first team for his Prem debut last week so I would think that's scuppered now.

I genuinely don’t think we’re aiming for promotion this season, genuinely think it was written off when Wilder left. Carrick has got us into a position where the playoffs are possible, but it’s very much a development season.
