If no one else comes in (hypothetically)

Would it be a massive disaster really. The way the squad as a whole has improved, would it be a disaster. Injuries, suspensions, could we maintain this run?

We need some other players. Our best 11 are here with us now but there will be injuries and suspensions. Other teams will get those too but if we have suitable cover, we should come through better. So yes we need a few more.

The question is if nobody else comes in.
As Nockya said other teams will suffer injuries etc so it's what we have in reserve and I certainly think we have better than other teams on the bench.
If no more players come in (I doubt this will be the case though), I think I have a little more faith in Parkinson and company now.
The back room staff have been hard at it and it looks like they have done well.


What was that you said again?

Injuries and suspensions affect all teams.
We have momentum now and the players are looking more confident.
If nobody else comes in then so be it, I think we can make the top two on what we have.

I think we will have enough and we're going to have to to a degree. I think we're only going to bring one more in, a prodominantly left sided midfielder.

I'll bet you any money that at least 3 more comes in before the deadline.
May only be loanees but the phone will be red hot right now.

I am surprised we haven't offloaded yet but we are still a week away from the busiest day.
