No, Happe and Ogie can still improve and we have enough strikers . IMO, we need one more for central midfield .

I think we are 1 light at c/half and no cover for Moncur

You can’t run with 5 centre halves for just 2 places.

Agreed on needing cover for Moncur though. Smyth can do it, El Miz showed he can do it at a push on Saturday, but that’s it and both should start elsewhere. I don’t think we’ll see an out and out, like for like replacement number 10 though. It needs to be someone that can play in several midfield or even forward positions, hopefully.

You should when Thompson & Ogie are also covering full backs

2 players for each position = 8 defenders if Wood stays we are covered , but if he goes then we are 1 light no matter how you like to dress it up

Presumably, El Mizouni and/or Kelman could be recalled to their rightful clubs at any time. This would damage our promotion push considerably.

Probably not. These days a season is a season, sometimes with a break clause in January. Depends on the situation with the player and each club involved.

Unless he can play on the wing or Smith is on the way out, this would make zero sense.

Nothing yet. Just a couple of articles we want Forster-Caskey before the deadline. Col U and Crawley also want him:

Based on how they've done it before I'd expect a further announcement later on of a departure or two, nothing we wouldn't already be expecting mind
