Dusic Posted 28 November, 2022 Share Posted 28 November, 2022 No friendlies or trip abroad currently confirmed. Players back training today. From the pics I didn't spot KWP, Tino, Lavia or Stu. Massively important to get KWP back for the start of Jan otherwise I would sign a full back on loan as soon as the window opens as we can't go much of this winnable run with Lyanco or Elyounoussi playing out there, its too important. Hopefully Lavia is ok. They said after the Liverpool game it was just cramp...we will need AMN to share minutes with him anyway as he isn't going to play 90mins every game and stay fit. Good to see Morgan involved. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now, In the depths of winter, I'm really missing Saints and the live PL games. On the upside it gives NJ his own pre season to get things sorted.

S-Clarke Posted 30 November, 2022 Share Posted 30 November, 2022 (edited) Just 10 more points out of that lot will probably have us relegated by April. We'd need to get wins against Spurs, Man City, Arsenal, Liverpool, Newcastle away, Brighton away etc if we were sat on 22 points by the end of March. In my opinion we need to be sat on 27 points at the very least by the end of the Leicester game to still be within the realms of safety, anything less and we're a bit fucked.

ally_uk Posted 1 December, 2022 Share Posted 1 December, 2022 Selling Romeu without a suitable experienced replacement a stupid decision. Not properly replacing Danny Ings and starting this season with a Striker who is proven at this level or similar another stupid decision. I look at the squad Where is the creativity? What player is also capable of scoring on a consistent basis? Adam Armstrong - no end product Che Adams - Needs 10 chances Ward Prowse - backwards passing specialist.... Elyonoussi - not sure what he offers Walcott - Past it Aribo - not impressed so far ................................. Going forwards I would. Least get Jay Morgan a run out against weaker teams can't be any worse than what we have. Get a Targetman in mentioned it numerous times until I am blue in the face we are crying out for a focal point. That 6.7 lad at Genk who is banging them in would be my pick. Make room for a tricky, creative midfielder who can actually link up the attack I don't care if it means shipping out Adam Armstrong, Elyonoussi, Walcott or Djenepo just clear the decks and bring a upgrade in....

The Board seem to be complacently pleased with themselves still (judging by that interview in the Athletic) and those of us who have witnessed previous relegations can clearly see the writing on the wall.

I'm also pretty certain Ralph would get more out of them in the second half of the season too. January is absolutely massive for us, on and off the pitch. We have a bunch of young players who have had a few months to adjust, and also a month off to review their performances in the first half of the season. But regardless, we need a striker and hopefully they're through the door and ready to hit the ground running by the time we play Forest on the 4th Jan.
