I'll go for 2, we will bring in a striker and a keeper.

I hope.

A striker to replace Blackman, Andrew Taylor permanent, and a goalkeeper

Selling Blackman pretty much says we have given up on promotion this season. After the Bristol win it is quite unlikely we will go down and so we might not sign anyone apart from maybe young up coming players if any we want are available.

We shall see.

I've never seen one post with quite so much wayward speculation.

We don't need a keeper. What we need is a decent coach!!! Dave Beasant is terrible.

We need a striker and right back. I'd like us to try and buy Taylor and John too.

I'd say selling Blackman is equally as likely to say we are cashing in on a player who can walk away for nothing in 6 months and giving us the scope to reinvest the fee and saved wages on a replacement

I guess we'll see in 26 days.

My prediction is 2

Taylor (perm)
Gnabry or Bamford on loan

Not too fussed if we don't sign an attacker tbh; allows the current crock to step up.

What makes you say Dave Beasant is terrible? Do you watch training every day?

I would sign Taylor, a CB and a striker and then send back Hector and Fernandez.

We NEED a big central striker, a right back and a goalkeeper

On top of that central defensive cover would be useful to have.

And of course any bargains or useful players that become available suddenly should be considered whatever their position.

I'll go for the three then...

Can't say I've been watching to be honest but fair enough.

Surely even Bibbo wouldn't turn Al-Flappsi into a decent keeper though? :?

I have to second this. Don't know what he's like it training obviously but our keepers usually stand still during warm ups whilst Dave misses the goal wildly and shouts at ball boys.

Sent this message to my dad at Wolves on Boxing Day after watching the warm up routine for Bond pre game

'Bessants crossing for Bond had been woeful, 5 over hit, 4 straight out, 5 he could catch'
