I know that January is round the corner and that we will hopefully be restrengthening then, however, looking at yesterday i don't think Barmby had much choice hence the reason for only one sub. Doe's anyone know when sefi and Garcia will be back in the frame. If injuries start to bite i don't have much confidence in the depths of our squad
Oli and Garcia are supposed to be back this month. I think they played in the reserves last week actually. McShane was quality in pre-season and should be given more credit. As long as he never plays centre-half I don't mind but he's decent cover for Rosie. Definitely need a new striker though, especially if Simpson goes to Millwall. We'll be left with Fryatt & McLean, with Adebola as backup. As I said on another thread, Sam Vokes would be a good option but I doubt we could pull it off. Wouldn't mind another striker from League 1, Gary Madine, Bradley Wright-Phillips or Ched Evans.
Things will look better once Oli, Garcia and Pusic are back. Macca can do a job in defence plus we have Liam Cooper. That's not to say we need to add to the squad, having Adebola as our only main option up front other than Fryatt and Mclean leaves us very short in that department.
We need at least one more striker I cannot see Simpson returning it would be better for all parties if he went to Millwall in January. In midfield if Brady stays then with the return of Olofinjana and Garcia in the next couple of weeks we have enough cover. If Brady goes back then perhaps another wide player. Now that Cooper has returned we have enough in defence in terms of numbers particularly when we can sign players on loan until March to cover an emergency. In goal we have one on loan and another only signed for the season if we could get Mannone that would be a good deal given his age and his potential to become a Premiership keeper.
