problem with this sort of question is that we don't know who is kicking around in PL or Championship squads and who is actually available. We need a Brian Howard type in midfield but I have no idea where he is now and if he is available.

Reading. In their first team so no chance with that one.
[cite]Posted By: Nicholas[/cite]Why Andy Reid from Blackpool, didn't he just sign for them in January, is he out of favour already
A theory that he was brought in to replace Charlie Adam - don't know whether he or John Eustace would be available but i've tried to stay in the parameters of the question.
I garee, we can't know but as Chelsea have been knoced out the cup - maybe we should look at some of their up and coming players. The problem is that good premiership youngsters are targets for Championship clubs and we don't have that draw in league 1. I'm sure the difficulty in getting his targets is down to Powell setting his sights high, which is the right policy IMO.

Miquel is a good shout - I hadn't heard of him before Sunday. How about the Exeter centreback (the black one) on loan with a clause to buy him at the end of the season? I thought he looked the sort not to take prisoners.
Of course there would be worries over his knees, but what about Michael Kightly? I guess he'd be more likely to get a Championship club but you never know.

Have a laugh... that man is pure quality.

Yes please... is McGinty ready to step up now then you recon?

That's why I want us to sign him Only suggested him as that article states he's most likely to go out on loan to get games.
David Noble of Exeter dominated the midfield on Saturday. Granted we allowed him space to play by not playing anyone up against him, but he used the ball very well. Ex- Arsenal Youth (alongside Jerome Thomas in their Youth Cup winning team), West Ham & Bristol City. Take him on loan with a view to a permanent signing. Clubs like Exeter always need the money, and he's an improvement on what we've got.

Well if he's ever going to be ready he's going to have to start at League One level, doubt United would want him playing L2 if they really rate him
I didn't post this ( promise ) but this just came up on Football Rumours .

Sc**thorpe are keen to reprise Jordan Spence's successful loan spell with the Iron but West Ham are unwilling to let him return until a number of injuries have cleared up.
United also face competition from West Ham's near neighbour Charlton. Former Hammers reserve team coach Alex Dyer is now with the Addicks and wants to bring the England U21 international to the Valley.
we have plenty of quality players do get the job done, probably the stongest squad in league one. No need to bring in another face to mess up the chemistry we had going before we started going with new faces. It just goes to show that when you throw 3 strikers up front for the first time all season in front of the largest home crowd in years, that is recipe for disaster. Lets keep the squad we have now, make some needed adjustments within the line up and get promoted!
we dont need another CB - just move Fry inside. Solly is close to being fit and we can move Jenkinson around if needed. we dont need another CM - Racon somehow is getting benched after having one of his best seasons in charlton red. Put racon back in! we dont need antoher ST - Benson is not even making the final 16 and Anyinsah is quality. Eccelstone, Abbott, BWP, Benson, Anyinsah... all great players!

Sean McGinty at Man Utd
As far as I know he is only on loan there

That's why I want us to sign him
Think he signed permanent, £500k for a short term deal I believe. No chance of him dropping this far down anyway unfortunately.

These two seem the most realistic as most others appears to be regulars in their current first teams.
Is Spence injured though as couldn't find any record of him playing this season?
Good call. How about Seip? Never got a game under Parky but any Argyle player is likely to be available now.
I think Michael Johnson and John Bostock are worth a go as is Jordan Spence. The are exactly what we need.
John Eustace is a good player but I'm not sure he is what we need right now.
Where is Michael Tonge at the moment?
I think Spence played for their reserves against Chelsea last week .
I wondered whether Wham would let him come to us as we already have Fry and Spence could potentially limit Fry's opportunities.
