    And to get rid of a lot of the players that seemingly get nowhere near the first team, and I think we are good to go.

    Quality not Quantity needed.

    We are short at full back too. And we need a number of strikers unless Watters is going to come good.

    I think that might be Styles if we don't recruit. I'm not that familiar with our youth teams and who might step up.

    Cosgrove , Jalo plus one other imho.

    the more players you sign, the quality diminishes. I think for years the squad has been far too big, sacrificing quality.

    I would add to this we have some good young players to fill the gaps where necessary, plus can use the odd loan

    Cosgrove and Watters will be a different proposition being supplied properly by Hourihane and Connell.

    The one other would need to be bloody good in that case.

    We still need a left wing-back or two, a couple of strikers and a keeper.

    We badly need a midfielder who can go past the opposition. We'll get nowhere without a runner or two.

    Earl himself said he doesn't want to be there. He is a CB. Styles should not be near team. Has no desire to be here, does not want to play LWB anyway especially not in L1.

    Keeper, 2 left wing backs (1 if Styles stays and plays there but doubtful) and 2 strikers for me.

    All need to be ready for the first team squad too.

    I agree, it gives a different dynamic to those games that aren't going well. We've added quality with experience, now for a bit of pace and directness.
