If we don’t bring in a LB it will be criminal. Akin to Bowyer not bringing in a centre half in January. smashing up the McDonalds over BillingsgateCAFCDAZ said:

It's something you buy at a department store in Dover.Athletico Charlton said:What is a deal sheet? Ie can it say two clubs have agreed subject to medical/personal terms?. So the deal can still fall through?

5 or 6? Maybe you’ve got so deep into saying it’s been a shit window that you can’t back down now that it’s turned out quite wellgolfaddick said:
I don't think you've been paying attention. We've not "done most of our business already". We are still 5 or 6 players short of what is needed & dome players we've brought in (Clare & Dodson) are average League 1 players. And we've still not replaced last seasons top goal scorer.TeeC said:

Yeah, because after 3 months of the window being open signing someone with 60 mins to go is seen as a positive & part of a plan.TeeC said:Surely we can wait for another 60 mins or so before calling this window either way and / or suggesting the need for a meltdown
But apart from that everything's peachy.0 -

What about Arter, Gilbey and Lee? Dobson and Clare haven't been particularly impressive but it's been a few games, give them a chance. Goalkeeper situation has been explained, we can cope without it.DamoNorthStand said:

Since then we've signed Kirk, Blackett-Taylor, Lee, Arter and Lavelle. Plus one other?5 -
It’s probably the place where we most urgently need a signing, in my opinion.Rothko said:It’s like people need something to hang their anger on, and a left back signing is it2 -
Barker is a player to bleed in in my opinion.Southbank said:
Clayden might get 10 minutes now and again. Who else do you think could help us win games this season? Nobody I have seen yet for sure.orpingtonRED said:
We have a few good youth players.Southbank said:
Elerewe is the only youth player close to the level needed for the first team squad just now.orpingtonRED said:
Pretty much. If we don't take 5 loans then we are putting a lot of trust in our youngsters in this league.ISawLeaburnScore said:
We definitely should not feel obliged to use 5 loans just because we can have up to 5 loans in a matchday squad.ForeverAddickted said:
At this time of the night I cant see Lavelle and two loans coming in.orpingtonRED said:
Got to assume we will take 2 loaness then unless Adkins has told those above that he's happy to bleed in our youngsters.ForeverAddickted said:
Two slots leftorpingtonRED said:We aint even taken our full quota of loans have we?
I won't argue if that's the plan.
Its a frustrating / bitter sweet scenario if we dont fill our quota as towards the end of the season there were a lot of complaints about people getting fed up of us signing five loans each summer as we need to build our own squad
So its good we've reduced our quota at the present.
But we still need a Left-Back
However, we are going to end up obliged to use 5 loans because we don't have a sufficient number of senior players under permanent contract.
Would fans be happy us playing them in a tough L1?
Adkins might be thinking its the way forward.1 -

Honestly we could have signed 3 left backs and the moaning would still happen “they’re too left footed” “one only scored 7 goals last season” “if he’s not good enough for Chelsea, he’s not good enough for us”Rothko said:It’s like people need something to hang their anger on, and a left back signing is it

Cawley on twitter: CAFC pretty confident they have got TWO signings in the bag. But both not set to be confirmed until past 11pm.

I'm not sure that's entirely true, when you consider how many we lost at the end of last season (perms and loanees returning). We had a lot of business to do, and still have much to complete. The LB, CB and attacking player aren't "luxury" signings to add to a groaning squad.TeeC said:

Only 5 senior signings before the start of the season
1 more and a free agent in mid August
1 in late August
1 so far on deadline day1 -

Ridiculous comment.Rothko said:It’s like people need something to hang their anger on, and a left back signing is it
We need a left back and if you think we don't then don't moan in January when we are mid table5 -
Is better than one at Shepherds Bush?TheAddicks4Ever said:How exciting…2 in the bag0 -
What we have done is over estimated Dobson and Clare (when and who is a different argument for a different day) and ended up with an imbalanced squad again. It's quite obvious you wouldn't have signed Arter and that has had to come at the expense of something else.Covered End said:

hoping for a striker and lavelle personally - use loans for a LB and goalkeeper and maybe another and think we are there2

I think the LB situation is baffling. Without even contemplating the position with Roddy or any of the situation behind that, I have no idea why we can't reasonably expect to have two left backs with a professional appearance between them at the club - particularly when our two right backs are one-footed and we don't have an obvious centre half or midfielder who can drop in there. This is before any consideration of Purrington's injury.Rothko said:It’s like people need something to hang their anger on, and a left back signing is it3 -
