    buying loads of players with the total being 5m why don't we just buy a good striker worth 5m. We have shown today that we need a striker as there is no leak in their pipes

    Lead not leak.

    And if you think we are going to spend £5million this January you are gravely mistaken my friend. One maybe two max permanent signings, and some loans to help a very light squad.

    Or we could buy a goal keeper that speaks to his defence.

    the whole point is this club can't yet attract a player with a genuine value of £5million.
    Hell we couldnt do that in the Prem , the clubs £5million got a useless cabbage with lots of one legged swagger

    If think a new striker or two are vitally important for us. If NB thinks he can get them on loan or cheap then fine, and spend whatever other money there may be on other positions. But if we can only get someone with the same drawbacks as McLean and Fryatt on loan then we should consider spending more on one. We're not going to get any higher than we are now by dominating games and not scoring. We need someone who isn't **** scared of the opposition's area.

    Yes, several of us have raised this issue before. Seems to me if we spend £5m we get a £3m player with an ego and baggage. Why not get a £3m striker (Good enough at this level) with no ego or baggage, or a top quality loan (pay a fee if necessary) who will stay on if we go up. Man U youngster (a la Fraiser Campbell - But with loyalty).

    Think we need a keeper, probably two strikers, a winger and a back up defender (loans and permanant).

    We won't spend £5m on one player.

    We won't spend £5m on several players either.

    ah ok. Will the deal include a mobile phone and company car? That could be a deal breaker!
