| Jan window 22:06 - Nov 25 with 3088 views | Nutkins_Return | Great result tonight after a poor first half from both teams. We showed way more intent and bit more quality seconds half. To me I do think we have to go again hard for Hackney (though you can imagine Wolves will be in for him - but would you go there knowing you are getting relegated?!). If not Hackney then another very mobile and energetic midfielder. Cajuste isn't doing enough and maybe doesn't compliment Azor in that role. We possibly have to to try again for a top striker but will be really hard as we know to get someone. |  |

Hopefully by Jan we are ahead and they continue to drop off. If we are ahead in Jan and even better top two then there is more incentive then I'm the summer really. I really think Cov will have a go at getting him to be honest. By Jan they may well be nailed on. |  |

If we can beat Coventry twice this month they will be far from nailed on. Obviously very hard to do but if they attack us and don't sit back I think we can do well against them. I don't think Coventry can afford the 20m+ either. SB |  |

I wouldn’t have thought Coventry could afford him. As mentioned above Louza looks class. |  |

I think midfield I’d more important, Hirst literally given scraps first half, as he has had most of the season. |  |

We’ve got a collection of midfielders with Burns coming back and Chaplin if we need him can be recalled. |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

The goals scored is unreal, you wonder if they can maintain that. TBF they said it about us but it will be interesting when the games tighten up if they can keep wining by the old goal. They’ve been seriously impressive so far. |  | |  |

Great shout that. He does look ideal. They spent a lot on him though. He would be a similar price. I would be all for that! |  |

We really don’t, Chaplin isn’t a central midfielder and isn’t coming back. Burns isn’t a central midfielder. We have Matusiwa, Cajuste who has been abysmal so far and Taylor who was supposed to be fourth choice and done admirably but isn’t a top level midfielder in the champ imho. and Nunez who has been used as a 10. That’s where we need to focus a quality CM, eh a more creative Taylor and a no 10. |  |

I'll back Hirst as much as the next guy. But wouldn't say he's been feeding of a scraps throughout the season, he's missed some guilt edged chances as has Azon. |  | |  |

'Abysmal' .... honestly He's not been pulling up trees, he's just been average, much like 95% of the squad. |  | |  |

I said they may be. And us getting 6 points Against them is a big if. But here is hoping! They definitely can afford if they are going up. If they don't then they'd have to sell van Ewijk in the summer as they would have to anyway as he was close to going. Complete guess on my part that they would bid anyway but one position they could do with cover. But I think they are going up. Really hoping we can get the other spot. |  |

Agreed. Cajuste hasn't been abysmal. He's just been really disappointing for the calibre of player he is. We need him to be much more dominant. You can plainly see he missed a pre-season. He just doesn't look fit to me to the levels required. I'm not sure how we fix that and the injury won't now help at all. |  |

Please list our central mids and assess their usefulness. Especially when Matusiwa has a ban or injury. Nunez is clearly a 10 and clearly not a CM. [Post edited 26 Nov 2025 18:07]

| Jan window on 18:25 - Nov 26 with 1339 views | SuffolkPunchFC | The alternative view is we have a settled squad in January, given the progress, so why mess around too much, if at all, if we don't have injuries? Who would you move out? Clark, Baggot and Humphries I guess, if any. |  | |  |

I think Mass has done his ACL so, much as I'd love a five year younger version, that one's flown. Serious: Agree, 1 CM, 1 CF |  |
