Crooks, Howson, McGree. As we stand at the moment, they're your three.
Other 'options' in the squad at present for those positions... McNair and Boyd-Munce. Desperate times.
After allowing Payero and Tavernier to leave, I think we are all in agreement that two signings are needed to bolster that department.
What types of players? Any specific names you'd like us to target? Have you heard any links?
Personally I'd like to see a big, strong, mobile midfielder that can play 6.. aggressive tackler, protector of the back three, covers ground, breaks up transitions in play, keeps the game simple. Alongside that we need a box to box 8, someone comfortable on the ball, can pick a pass but also shoot and chip in with goals, breaks into the box when attacking but has enough athleticism to get back and cover when needed.
I've said on a couple of threads over the last fortnight that Willock at QPR and O'Hare at Coventry would be my first choices to come and play 8.. whether our purse strings would stretch that far, and whether they'd want to come, is another thing.
Number 6... Choudhury? A Kieran Scott wildcard pulled out of the bag?
Critical we invest some of that money we've brought in for this department. Quickly.
