Midfielder higher priority imo 16:59 - Jan 24 with 1654 viewskizaitfc

Cajuste and Taylor dont compare with some of the better CMs in the Championship.

Azor is a solid holding midfielder but he needs a box to box man next to him, or a no.10 that can control the game (Nunez a big miss today).

We need a Hayden Hackney style player, I know we aren't getting him but someone similar is needed

Simply not true - Taylor and Cajuste have been excellent this season chopping between the two, they have often delivered really good performances - today they were both poor, as was the group collectively.

No knee jerk reaction needed in that department.

10 and 9 were the priorities going into the window, we’ve addressed the 10 role, 9 still needed.

We need a striker who can actually hold the ball up make it stick we play it up its like playing against a brick wall bounces anywhere.

Probably Azor's worst performance for us today.
With all these away games coming up in February we need to get a team selection specifically for away sorted out pronto...cos that today was a shambles.

Respectfully disagree. The final third lets us down on too many occasions and although overall we obviously one of the highest scorers we have too many games like this where we just can't finish our chances. What we could've done with Bamford on our side!

That's seriously not true.
Priority number 1 is getting a CM partner/ backup to Matusiwa.
And I'm sure they're trying hard to get one. If there was onlly 1 signing allowed in this window... its a CM.
Matusiwa gets a 2 month injury... we're fùcked.

True, Hirst getting the hook after 57 mins was very telling.

Suspect McKenna and Ashton will have a busy week ahead.

My concern is we end up with a panic buy and overdpend

I agree we need a midfielder, but my goodness, we need a striker more!

Hirst was terrible again today.

Azon - I like him - but we need someone who can score goals. We are too dependent on JP and Clarke for that right now. Absolutely must invest in a striker. A goal scorer.

I’ve watched Town for over 20+ years and I genuinely believe Cajuste is in the top 5, if not top 3 over rated players I have come across. Barely scores, barely assists, does a few fancy turns a game (of which they end up putting us in more trouble than they do good) and that’s about it.

I’ll say it again, we went from trying to sign Hackney and ending up with him again. Even the Saudis didn’t want him ffs.

Expect plenty of downvotes for that, but hey ho.

I loved cajuste when he first came in. But soon realised when hes not wuick turning a player theres nothing else to offer.

I thought he'd realish coming on today. But he was dreadful off the ball and when he did get it he didnt do anything.

Like hirst. Ive loved and moved on.

Looks pretty for tidy for 30 minutes and then completely runs out of gas. Very very poor when defending transitions and lacks final ball.

Does not fit this system at all. When he’s at his absolute best he’s too much for championship midfielders but that’s once in a Blue moon

Can barely last an hour every other game. That’s a problem.

No idea why the OP has been downvoted. An 8 and a striker are the two signings we need most. If we got Hackney in the summer we’d be coasting by now. When Nunez doesn’t play we don’t have a play maker or much creativity in either the 8 or the 10.

I think Cajuste is decent at home, when we are dominating possession, but away from home where the other team will dominate at times he's a bit of an issue.

I still think that centre forward is a bigger issue than midfield though!

I was born underwater, I dried out in the sun. I started humping volcanoes baby, when I was too young.

I've defended cajuste but he's just so frustrating. Lost the ball cheaply on 95 minutes today.....the reaction: he ambled back whilst Leif Davis bust a gut running back to defend and retrieve the ball.
If I was Mckenna, I'd play this clip on a loop to him to get him to understand how unacceptable this is

Cajuste has played better recently but as my previous posts re him on here demonstrate, I’m not his biggest fan. Looks good running with the ball but flatters to deceive for me so no downvote from this poster - not that I use those anyway.

Funny how we all see things differently though. A good thing really.

Wee when you look how Taylor never got a look in with Morsey or Lungo but gets games ahead of Cajuste says it all.

To the untrained eye Cajuste probably is under appreciated just how good he is, so that would explain why you may think he’s not been excellent.

Cajuste has been pretty poor for me, shows glimpses of what we expected but for probably one of the biggest pedigrees and salary hugely underwhelming.

Taylor has played the best football of his Town career so far, but still that is not enough for a team with automatic aspirations, gives energy but nowhere near the quality.

We need far better.

Poor!? That seems incredibly harsh.

I think back to just Bristol City in the week, I thought we had dropped a Rolls Royce in midfield, thought he was excellent.

Everyone sees the game differently, I see a real high quality footballer, technically he’s so good, and his football brain is so good.

What I would say is that I think Jens suits certain games, and Taylor probably balances it out by suiting a different type of game - as a pair they have a lovely blend.

Under appreciated? The bloke has been kept out of the side by Jack Taylor, someone who couldn’t get a look in last Luongo and Morsy 2 years ago. Not to mention he can’t last anything past 60 minutes.

He’s garbage. I’d have honestly sent him back to Napoli, or just not bothered signing him last summer again.

Your trained eye must be bloody lazy as it can't watch for more than 20 minutes. The maximum amount of time Cajuste can perform.

He's improved lately and showing more influence.... but he's got no engine. He's better of being a sub coming on for the last 20 minutes when the game opens up against tiring opponents. He has to have more than some fancy spins and rolls to be excellent. If he was as good as some make out he'd be the first name on the teamsheet, but he's way behind Matusiwa and sharing the 2nd CM spot with Taylor. That ain't cheat code. Happy for him to be a sub as he has genuine chops.... but think we're paying him too highly for that
