Yes almost unrealistic optimism, textbook us recently.

Rumours on Twitter about Cannon and as Shark said, nothing credible in our interest but this was posted suggesting he could be available and if so I would imagine we would still be sniffing about.

What I'm curious about is Gelhardt seemingly being the only striker we're linked to, but we've felt one striker light all season, so having one out one in would still feel light. Perhaps there's a confidence that Pedro has shown enough to lead the line for the rest of the season? You'd want to hope there's no further injuries to the squad though..

We bring in 2 specialist wingers, that releases Burstow as an option through the middle.

So that would potentially leave us with Pedro, Geldhart and Burstow, with added cover from potentially Crooks, who's non too shabby as a physical false 9, by all accounts.






I thought we were supposed to be in for Tom Cannon, It's a weird one, seeing as he's doing well at Stoke. Also, wasn't the picture of the player in the dugout suspected to be Emmanuel Dennis?

If he's on the move then I'm sure we're in for him one way or another.

I'd be gobsmacked if we signed him though.

Normally three strikers plus an academy player is enough. Main issue with our strikers was quality rather than quantity. We finished the summer transfer window with just Bedia and Burstow and let’s face it, Pedro was us scraping the barrel to sign a free agent. He’s been great but he wouldn’t be here if we actually sorted out the striker issue before deadline day.

I don’t think we’ll get a marquee striker signing in January. Going by Acun’s record, I doubt we’ll ever get one. He said he wouldn’t skimp on a striker but we’ve not signed this big money striker in every window he’s been owner.

Scraping the barrel, maybe. Pedro is still the best option and quality.

I think Cannon ended up at Stoke as Leicester wanted to loan him out and not sell him. I think at that point we were bloated with loans anyway.

Leicester are now thinking of just cashing in, but I’m not sure our budget is still there for him and even if it was, why would he want to drop into a relegation battle.

He is already in one.

Fee agreed for a wide player with lots of Championship experience

Harry Cornick from Bristol City? Hasn't played for them much this season, has been on the bench, lots of experience, helped Luton get promoted too.

Could also be Callum Paterson at Sheff Wednesday, who is more of a utility player but is very effective on the right wing.
