Well, i know for certain we are after a cdm - i know who it is and i know he is our number 1 target in that position as does he and i know it will be a loan and he is at a premier league club - i don't think it is appropriate for me to name him - this isn't really a rumour, its a fact bur hopefully useful to those interested anyway.

This is EXACTLY a rumour and EXACTLY what we're here for.

Guessing who it is from your previous posts but I would guess he would an automatic first choice. That could be intresting who makes way.

Really don’t see the point of Premier League loans at this point, particularly as our supposed number one target in a key position.
Hopefully we get a few days permanents to balance it out

Me niether.
I'd much rather bring in someone who we can keep next season

Agree. Equilibrium has been reached in respect of games in league one now. We are 14 points adrift of 6th place. From this point on we will need to be the best performing team in the league. No chance of that. None. Why waste money on a PL loan. I’d rather we saved the dosh until the summer when we can rebuild properly.

Me either but permanent signings are expensive in January. Really can't see the point in bringing in a CDM though - pretty much the only position where we're completely covered.

We have Ben Dempsey who we gave a one year extension to, but couldn't play due to squad number rules!

With whom?
The only premier league youngster type loan I would be intrested in would be a first loan who might not be quite ready now. In the same way desilva wasn't. With the view of them coming back next year. Or one that's going to be released and we have a realistic chance of signing permanently.

Are we? Loads of people saying we don't have any cover for Dobson. We're no more covered at CDM then we are at GK, RWB, LWB, CB or CM. We were before Arter went I agree, but now he's gone we're not.
Depends on where JJ sees Clare playing long term as to whether we need another CDM or another CB
Clare is not a CDM either way. I see him more as the competition for Gilbey.
But we're using him as a defender right now, so I'm fairly sure he's defensively minded, and defensively capable. JFC will be the Gilbey competition.
MacGillivray is defensively minded but I doubt we'll see him as a CDM. In terms of box to box, bit of physical presence and occasionally running with the ball, Clare is a lot more similar to Gilbey than JFC. I think JFC is more suited to the DM role personally. Doesn't run round like Dobson, but could be effective as a deep lying playmaker.
Either way, I think we need 7 CM's. Dobson, Gilbey, Lee, JFC and Clare are 5 of them, we need another Dobson and another Lee.

And at least 1 of the seven that can take a set piece and score the odd goal

Can you just say if it is a younger player or experienced pro?
Not a rumour just a random thought , do you think Jacko could talk Tony Watt back ? If so would we even want him or am I just being completely unrealistic
This is getting very confusing and weird..two threads with the same target of rumours..god it is hard enough as the month progresses keeping up with one let alone two rumours threads...
But only here you can you have a pointless argument about whether Stockley is a striker, a forward, a centre forward, an attacker or a front man unless @addick1956 is trolling on there as well.

He’s actually a target man. 😏
Jesus. I said I don't like the word striker. I still don't. If Stockley is a target man how come we miss him a lot. I grew up in the 50's so to me striker is a term used by those who understand simply terms only. I just don't like the term.
I agree. Goalkeeper. Defender. Midfielder. Forward.
All this 4-1-2-1-2 etc stuff is nonsense. It is only used to explain to the thickest of players where they should actually be and what they should do. It is not a game of chess. It is a simple game.

Realistically, reaching the playoffs won't happen. Even to get to 7th we'd have to overtaken MK Dons, Pompey, Wednesday and Ipswich
He was shyte first time round! 🤨
