We already have one, we need 2 wingers, centre mid, left back and centre half at a minimum. Ideally a striker and a keeper too and if Tufan goes another technical central midfield player.

I think that is more of a summer overhaul.

I think the team Rosie had with a couple of additions is easily good enough for challenging inside the top 10.

I think we are spoilt in wide areas with Allahyar, Longman, Tetteh and Ebiowei in our ranks.
 
It'll be interesting to see if/how his playing time is affected by Salah and Traore hopefully coming back soon
He’s certainly looked to have improved on the ball this season. Made as many tackles in the Brum game alone as Slater has in the last 10 games…

Spoilt? Allahyar's crocked again, Longman's done a job but isn't direct enough for a winger, Tetteh is coming back from serious injury which leaves Ebiowei, an unknown to the squad and how we play.

Ebiowei isn’t really unknown, he excelled at Derby at this level earning him a move to the Premier League. Palace have had him on the bench as they fee he has something to offer at that level. I think he is an outstanding loan for us and will do what Harry Wilson did for us.

Tetteh played very well before his injury and showed in last weeks cameo that he could be another fantastic player for us.

Longman is Championship quality but just needs to be more consistent but definitely good enough. I acknowledge Allahyar’s been injury prone but should be back in 4 weeks or so, Smith is ok cover too.

Before we know it Greavesy will also be converted into one of the best wingers in the league :emoticon-0105-wink:

He has and he's having a decent season. I know Slater gets constant praise from Rosey but he's not been that good this season. You get sparks every so often and he's a good tidy player but he's not nailed down the type of midfielder he is yet.

Simons was really good at the weekend but surely the only reason we'd keep him is if we could get it converted into a perm.

Summer will see a lot of those go. Covil won’t, and I can’t see Longman or Coyle going either. But the bigger spend will be in the Summer, January is about fine tuning. Three of those are reserve/U23s mainstays so they won’t be missed anyway. I suspect players like Doc, Jones, Woods and Smith will be evaluated too to see if they can be upgraded.

Alas Smith and Jones.
<applause>
