If I were the owners I’d not spend a penny this window now. Just go for a few loans etc. We need to save the money to rebuild in the summer and come back up next year.
January window….

the Championship players yes. Only issue is… if Howe isn’t the one to bring us back up… why let him pick those players now?
We can’t possibly sign him. He’s not a CB and we need a CB first before we get anyone else.
I agree we need a CB. But I still feel a CM is more important. We are being hammered and the defenders don’t get any respite.We can’t possibly sign him. He’s not a CB and we need a CB first before we get anyone else.
Shelvey is the problem. He is the big issue.
They all are. I'd go 5 at the back, 3 in midfield and 2 up front. I'd want Joelinton CM, Willock right of him and Almiron left. We need work and legs in the middle.
3 CB's would be Schar, Fede and Dummett. We need replacements of course. Then Lewis LWB and Trippier RWB. ASM off Wood (Wilson the second he's back).
We need Shelvey, Lascelles, Fraser, Longstaff, Clark, Ritchie out of this team ASAP. It needs a complete reset.
I’m resigning myself to us signing a load of old overpriced **** now or at best loans. I don’t blame them though. Momentum is everything in football and our momentum was downwards from day 1 this season.
Now this I agree with..
I don't care how good anyone is supposed to be a long passes the 1st thing you've got to be in the premier league is mobile.
Shelvey doesn't score, doesn't get assists, doesn't win tackles, can't run, offers zero help at either end, so he's useless
Tbh the pair of them are very similar... Seriously I've seen people saying please no about Cantwell.. **** me he's absolutely class compared to that pair of clampets
Im done with Longstaff like, I kept telling people there's a player in there, give him time etc. Well if there is a player in there let some ****er else dig it out
I'll agree on this now - Cantwell isn't what I hoped, but he's way better than anything we have. Still need a strong DM, one of the AFCON lads, and two CB's. I'd have rather spent £25m on Tarkowski and just played Stephenson on the evidence of Wood's debut.
The key problem, though, it nothing Howe is doing is working. It's like a bad luck charm, like it's destined to fail. I don't know why, it just is.
It's now vital we get a couple of ****in proper players in.
Cantwell, billing Jesus christ litterally Tom Davies is another level to our cms

Mate I'd take today's des Hamilton over our cms
I'm ****ing sick of them
On another note I know it's far too early to judge but 25ms for wood looks alot.. That's on Howe
Im not worried about Wood tbh our centre halves and centre mids are all guff. Not a single 1 are any good. We're fine on thw flanks, Tripz, Lewis (not Dummett), Max and Fraser. Just sort out the middle
I've got wonder why people are after max.. Jesus ok he's frustrating, but this side without him?
Jesus christ I shudder the think.
And Howe?, why can't we just play 4 2 3 1 and get almiron Joelinton and max behind wood?

What's worse isn't how bad Wood was, and the number is irrelevant. What's worse - MUCH worse - is what Howe instructed the team to do. It was 90's throwback bullshit, ****ing abysmal. I've not been this concerned about a managerial appointment since McLaren came in.
