I want us to sign a LB (as we still don't have a proper one) and I think the club are actively going down this road without saying too much about it. United are evidently pissed that we aren't using CBJ but he hasn't gone back...my suspicion is (and this is just my speculation based on what we all know, rather than any inside knowledge) that they don't actually have a recall clause, we need to agree to it if he goes back, and we won't let him go until we sign someone to play there or at very least properly challenge Mr Gloves. I know he's done alright going forward lately but we all know what he is and he isn't going to improve in the most important aspect of his job.
As for everywhere else, you'd struggle to find wingers that would come here and realistically get in our team, we have way too many CMs, all of the CHs are effectively on trial for the rest of the season, most pertinently Willo who needs to play enough to earn a new deal and Stears who needs to convince us that we should sign him permanently (I'm not sure either will happen, but we'll see). I'd like a striker but then try getting a decent deal for a serious player in that position in January, and we don't *need* one to stave off relegation or push for the top six, we aren't going anywhere.
In the long term there's a lot that needs looking at. I'm not sure that we can or will do much of it in the next fortnight or so. Plus we quite obviously have massively improved over the last month, so the urgency isn't there now that we thought would be.
