we need a keeper, a right back, two centre halves, cover at left-back, a defensive midfielder, a creative central midfielder and two wingers (one for each side)

if we sell dembele, we'll need a striker too

i look forward to us signing a wee guy from st mirren

He's not far off to be fair. We definetly need a new keeper, centre half, a number 10. Lustig and Brown will also need replaced very soon for Europe.

We're needing a couple of bastards. Argentinianesque types that'll pull folks' oxter hair out at corners and give dead legs three minutes in. Got a squad of decent footballers, but bar Broony Lustig & KT, they're pussies. A cynical carrot would have sorted that Anderlecht midfield out last night - they had it far too easy.

I'm not advocating signing hammer throwers btw - there are good footballers in the world with a streak about them, and we should be looking for them.

Get a proper GK and centrall defender(s) in. Vorm type to just replace Gordon as I’ve really had enough of him. He can make the saves but he’s not commanding enough to play at CL level, possibly because of his injury history.

Fabianski? Seem to remember him being a decent shot stopper but a total bombscare everywhere else. Doesn't seem like that would improve our situation.

Vorm has played in 10 league matches in the last 3½ years and is 34 years old

until the "right" young'ish keeper comes along that Brendan wants, Gordon will do

If the general rumours are to be believed then Hazard is that keeper. If that's true then he's not going to buy someone to sit in front of him. which means putting up with what we've got for the forseeable.

A new number 10 is needed IMO but the fans and the manager have to much affection for Tam and wee McGregor to demand improvement. Rogic can be class but he really is hot or cold. McGregor is just a good academy player who can sometimes step up in big games, but nothing special in terms of the top level.

Really think Ntcham should be played there with Eboue and Brown behind in the Europa, and wait til Summer for a number 10, unless Rogic can step up in the mean time.

Should sign Paddy and get a replacement on a 6 month loan in, or sign that Twumasi guy.

Hope we give Ralston a chance cause Lustig is not a CL level right back. I’ve got a feeling we’ll se a repeat of Tierneys breakthrough possibly as soon as the run up to the hun game on the 30th, but I still want lustig to retire here. As a backup he’d be great and he’s got enough affection for the club to be happy with that role.

So January: CB, GK, RW.

Summer: ST, CB, CAM

We’ll get Mcginn and Morgan though

Brendan already have tried to replace Gordon with de Vries, which didn't work

don't think that he will gamble with that position

for all his faults Gordon have a certain lvl of quality which BR now seems to be ok with

as I've said before, he will be/is monitoring the situation of Ward at Liverpool, if he becomes avilable he will make a move, if not he will go with Gordon, de Vries as back up and put Hazard out on loan to get regular football either in the winter or in the summer window

Huge window this, as every window seems to be these days.

Already in need of a quality keeper, Right back and centre half. We've no back up to Tierney either.

Factor in the likely exits of Armstrong and dembele And the squad is looking extremely weak heading into the next round of qualifiers. A few quality signings needing pulled out here.

If that lad is going to be our no 1, he should be playing against the dross already - nearly 20 already and never kicked a first team baw for anyone.

I'm not as sure as you that Ralston will have a KT type of impact, but if the management team rates him we need to see more of him. Lustig (and Gamboa) will be at the World Cup, so a player for CL qualifiers at RB is a priority.

I agree, though in fairness 20 for a goalie is very young.

Doesn't matter who we're interested in, what the fans want or indeed who the manager wants PL is the man who decides that we'll end up with a couple of prospects and a loan deal, I honestly cannot see us buying any players(s) who will seriously improve the team in January!

Sorry for being so negative but over the past few years we have always hoped for someone who will instantly improve the team and that just hasn't happened...perhaps only Sinclair when he came in last summer did that however was POTY now he's a dick badly off form!

And dembele. And Ntcham by the looks of things.
