| January targets 15:30 - Dec 7 with 3830 views | _CliveBaker_ | We’re only a few weeks away from the window opening, anyone got any suggestions? Not positions but specific targets. I wonder if Luke O’Nien will go out on loan, he’s barely played this season for Sunderland and his red card yesterday might well be him done there for this season. Could be a Travis type signing for us and I can see us wanting to strengthen in the middle to give Matusiwa a bit more cover. We’re short there and suspensions especially look inevitable. Experienced and a recent championship promtion under his belt too. I think we’ll target a #9 as well but not sure who. |  | | |  |

| January targets on 17:35 - Dec 7 by mellowblue | bit of a slap in the face for a very good professional. Expensive guy to de-register. |
Why would it be a slap in the face for him if he is thinking about retirement in January rather than the end of the season? |  |

Marcel Ruiz? |  | |  |

| January targets on 17:25 - Dec 7 by J2BLUE | Hackney. I know it's unlikely and right now I wouldn't even bother BUT if we could now go on a run and draw at least level with Boro we have to try. Fully aware it's very unlikely and I don't mean we should spend the entire window trying to convince him. See where things are we play Cov on 29th and then ask his agent. If we get knocked back immediately or we don't have an answer within 3 days we move on. If Cov can be clawed back then Boro might even be up for it if they can strengthen multiple positions. Another ST? Swap an RB for a back up LB if possible. Possibly a 10 unless Egeli gets moved there. |
Hackney was our number 1 target in the summer (which shows that our scouting and judgement isn’t that bad!) but despite our best efforts he didn’t want to come. I really can’t see that anything has changed so think we have to let that one go. I think Nunez can come good in the #10. What we really, really need (as we have just about every Jan window for the last 5 seasons!) is a CF. No idea who is on the radar though. |  |

As I said, it's very unlikely for a number of reasons but worth trying against if we can climb above them. Especially if they have a little drop off in form. Not suggesting either are likely, just that it has to be attempted if there's even a slight chance. I'm sure we can soon move on to the next target. |  |

I don't think we'll move on at all - it's very much our thing to go back for a player who we think is right for us. I think we'll sign a cover DM, probably another CAM/CF, but it really will depend who is available - i can't see us pushing for people if we stay injury free and they don't improve us. |  |

Hackney is the obvious right answer. But yes, highly unlikely unfortunately. |  |

| January targets on 15:37 - Dec 7 by Kieran_Knows | If we’d done our homework on Sindre at FC Nordsjælland, then hopefully we’d have also looked at Caleb Yirenkyi. Centre mid, just about linked with every top European club. |
Think the ship may have sailed with Yirenkyi. Saw the scout list for a Nordsjælland game last week, featured the like of Liverpool, Dortmund, Tottenham, Bayern. |  | |  |

You can see why they'd want him, he looks rapid in the middle of the park That would be another record Championship fee |  |
