At least one of the players we're bringing in needs to be an experienced game manager on the pitch. It's clear we don't have that (and don't mention Hoggy). An older hand to keep the youngsters on track, in shape and focused... What’s Jason Puncheon up to nowadays? He was always Puncheon above his weight with us. |

Ronan Coughlan back in English football, now with Fleetwood.
Nice lad. Hope it works for him.

Spencer (unproven), Jackson (unproven, and seems mildly injury prone), Kasumu (not a right back, and very injury prone), Turton (not played consistently for 2 years). Hardly like they’re top tier options. |

Jackson - average squad player. Kasumu - isn't a right back. He is a midfielder that has helped the team. Turton - we need better, he may not be the same consistent player now. |

Would Djed Spence improve our squad?
Based on what I saw of him at the twigs, yes. Absolutely yes.
But if his attitude isn't right, then we'd do well to steer clear. In a relegation fight you need everyone pulling together.
Also, with the (now confirmed) signing of Matos I make it that we have just 1 space left in the squad.
RB was on my list of positions that need filling but are we really claiming that it's the top priority?
I don't think it should be, and with the early recall of Brodie Spencer from what appeared to have been a successful loan North of the border I'd suggest the club agrees.

Did Forest not make some signings last January and then exclude some of those who were in their previous squad of 25, O'Brien being one of them who then had to go and play in America to get a game? Can we not do the same or have the rules changed or is it different in the Championship? Presumably we can or there would be no January transfer window as most clubs will surely fill their squad of 25 in the summer. |

I'd suggest that Spence - as talented as he may be - ain't that. |

He is a midfielder that has helped the team. Turton - we need better, he may not be the same consistent player now. Jackson has played well in that position since DM moved him there but he is still early in his career. Spencer is probably a bench option. I agree Kasumu's natural position seems to be midfield but has been very good at right back, especially given the licence to get forward. He can pass, he is quick and he can tackle. He gets a lot of injuries but perhaps that position will suit him better. I agree regarding Turton. |

Our squad is mostly youngsters as shown by the Boro bench! |

I suspect that Josh Austerfield, Jaheim Headley and Ben Jackson are old enough to count towards the limit. I'm not 100% sure what date the cut-off is but Jackson turns 23 next month. |

Unless he's going to be fit to play a match, any match, any standard, this month, then there's no way he's going to be fit enough to play a meaningful number of Championship games this season. We don't even know what level he's going to be capable of playing at after so long out. |

I hope Town have a scout at the WBA v Aldershot Town FAC game on Sunday. The three Aldershot forwards Tolaj, Stokes and Barham are getting good reviews and Tolaj, in particular, impressed me in the game v Halifax I went to a few weeks ago.
Worth a look at least, sign and loan back for the season? Far better than one or two I could name at Town.

Told we have agreements in place for two loan signings and both are expected to complete very early in January, one is a loan with a view to purchase in the summer very much like DB's deal (this is the deal for Radulovic), the other is a premier league loan who we should have got in the summer but was rejected by the management team at the time (MATOS) Expecting the below. Diarra to leave as wont sign and extension. Watch this spaceRhodes to be recalled and may go back to Blackpool later in January if we get our targets in. Still every chance JR will be backSpencer to be recalled Already happenedEdwards to be sent back (told he is actually already back at Stoke) Watch this spaceFor all of you who don't trust me! Everything I am told may not always be correct but the majority is! |

This will not happen Turton is training with the first team again and when back will give us a lot more options, he is not too far away needs a few behind closed doors games but progress is good. |
