We’ve used this and strengthened well under Ashton but how on earth would we be able to do this again this season? There really don’t appear to be any weak links in the squad. Perhaps re visit the Uruguay CB?
My other thought is that we will target younger players to develop. |  | | |  |

Are we missing a defensive midfielder cover? If Matusiwa gets injured not sure we have anyone else who can do that. | | | |

We have a few of the old guard to move on, Walton is in the last year of his contract. Only Leif really in the team. H Clarke, Burns to move on post injury? Others out on loan to go.
Upgrades still required where others can go Taylor? AAH. Also any injuries that occur. A few changes in Jan and a few more in the summer | | | |

Can see us going for Caceres again, and then hopefully a new number 1, plus centre mid cover for Matusiwa. |  |

It will depend a lot on
Whether BJ or H Clarke is getting game time
Whether Burns is fit and getting game time
Whether Humphries Baggott are getting game time
Which injuries we are covering
Whether we are scoring enough
Whether we are conceding to many
Which players are available!
I like the idea of further investments in younger players for PL2. | |

Having changed - and spent - a lot over the summer and assuming the team is functioning smoothly, with success, there is no absolute need to hire any new players at all in January. It could be a source of distuption (as they integrate), rather than a boost. Would also neccessitate more departures to fit the 25-man squad, unless they were both permanent signings and young enough.
That having been said, the suggestions so far are logical and sensible. |  |

A keeper
Matusiwa backup
Possibly someone to replace Taylor
Wouldn't say any of these are that urgent though |  |

I’d say a Matu backup effectively replaces Taylor as we’ve already got Nunez in to literally replace him. Taylor’s making up the numbers now (no disrespect to him). That would give us 4 senior pros for those 2 places plus Humphreys. |  |

If we get those three we can swap out Baggot, Button and one other (not Humphreys as he’s needed so we can gave 9 subs rather than 8).
It would be either Harry Clarke, Ben Johnson or Wes.
I’d keep Wes as he is quicker than McAteer which makes him a different prospect on the right | | | |

Hopefully he remains quicker after the injury |  |

I think, for the first time, we're going into the season proper in a very strong position and with no screaming weaknesses needing to be addressed.
Too many factors to consider between now and January, but will predominantly be about injuries. | |

This is my concern. No cover for Matusiwa. Can't see Nunes, Cajuste or Taylor doing the dirty work to the same level as him. Same with Humphreys.
The window has only just closed so a lot can happen in the next few months - but that's where I would be looking for cover.
Has been said that Johnson has played there before. Might be a more physical option than the others. Or maybe Cajuste and Nunes can cope OK together. | | | |

Agree with this....Town often go back in for players they identify, and can see us trying again. Maybe even Hackney too grounding in where we are in the league and Boro. |  |

I think the key is if we pick up any long term injuries. We have a lot of options in our squad now. Still a bit away from Saturday/Tuesday/Saturday football. We should really take off when that starts happening next month. |  | | |

New keeper
New central defensive midfielder
Harry Clarke and Burns to leave on loan
Someone could get injured and have to be replaced. |  | | |

Think we are strong across the pitch. Maybe a 9 and maybe go back in for hackney but unless there are injuries think he’ll work with a settled squad and not look too get many in to spend time integrating.
Nothing wrong with Palmer in goal | | | |
