    Who do we reckon are the most likely strikers for us to bring in?

    Kyle Joseph?
    Troy Parrott? He's been recalled by Spurs to loan out again.
    A prem youngster?

    We need a Trojan up front.

    None. More bothered that we don't sell Mowatt to be honest. Nobody we bring in will be any better than what we have. Need to get some more results this season, then assess the players that are out on loan.

    We had four on the bench at the weekend so unless we plan on getting shut of two or three of them we don't need another in our already bloated and unbalanced squad.

    I'd rather that than bring in someone for the sake of it. (Like Morris).

    Seen a lot of Morris have we from the little I’ve seen of him he already looks more effective than Miller ,Chaplin, Freiser etc.

    Be surprised if we sign anyone now. And even if we do sign a Kyle Joseph type (as in, <20 professional games). He's never going straight in to the first team, so any impact he has is gonna be minimal and it'll be another rough diamond for us to (hopefully) polish and cash in on in 202X.

    We'll probably be mid-tableish whatever happens now so I'm not that bothered tbh.

    We need another midfielder more than a striker imo. I prefer Palmer to Kane but neither are solid Championship midfielders. We've missed James enormously.

    Too early to judge Morris. Plus he should be playing in the middle of the three, from the little I've seen of him, he looks the most likely to be able to hold the ball up.

    That's what bothered me most about Saturday. Playing long balls to Chaplin and Frieser. I'm not wholly adverse to a punt up front, it can be effective, but you need someone who can win a header or bring it down and not be muscled off.

    If we're after a young prem player on loan, perhaps should ask about Liam Delap from Man City, young but big (6 ft 2 i think) striker who has looked good when used in cups earlier this season.

    we do not want Troy Parrot , we need Devante Cole he is 25 now, he will do an Ivan Toney and be twice the player he was as a teenager,leading the line at Motherwell like a Trojan

    If you see his best moments for other teams I don't think that's the case. I think he's suited to being wide and we should stop punting the ball to the #9 anyway and play it down the channels in to space for players to bring under control.

    I think you'll see Morris start but he wasn't 100% fit and up to speed. Hence the cameos.

    Me too. Certain players only click at one club. I'm not optimistic we'll sign the type of player the fans are after as we haven't really been linked with anyone. I'd love to sign a player scoring for fun in the lower leagues or give someone like Tom Nichols a go in the Championship.
