Will We Do Business in the Winter Window?

[FantasyIreland]

I wasn't convinced that we'd do business in January, but think today will focus a few minds at board level.

If a top four finish is the aim,and it has to be........then,on top of Gabriel,certainly two or three new faces are required.

2 Full backs and a defensive minded midfielder please.

If we buy anyone decent in January we will pay way over the odds in terms of value.

Maybe so but sometimes needs must and this is one of those times.

Why should we as fans care how much a world class player cost in January if we need him buy him and quick.

Lets face it we are not short of money so at a time when we are struggling and going backwards why shouldn't we strengthen in the window. Chelsea running away with the league and the rags looking like throwing even more money around. Get the defence sorted and push for a strong finish.

Need to be resigned to the fact that we might not make top 4 and that we will need to wait until the summer to sort this mess out. I doubt quick fixes will help. There's a major rebuild to be undertaken and bringing in more short term fixes won't really help - it will complicate things further. Need contracts to run out in the summer and then recruit wisely. Pep will know who he wants out and who he wants in but I doubt any of these moves are possible in January.

Could see us going for Kolasinac (LB - can play CB too), he's out of contract in the summer, and Dahoud, who supposedly has a low release clause in the summer, or N'Zonzi

I really don't want us to make the same mistake. Let's not spunk a load of money in a panic buy. If the right defender isn't available then let's stay with what we have and wait till the summer. We've wasted far too much of our money. I'd rather see us overpay in the summer for the right player than waste £30m on an average player now if that makes sense.

Let's sign Andy Ritchie! We need goals !

That way my nickname for our LB/CB of "Kola" can remain.

Yay.
