Dembele didn't instantly improve the squad it took him a wee while and a few dud sub appearances before he hit his stride, and even then no matter his goals his form and performances have been a bit stop start since he came to us, against "wee" teams at times it seems he's not trying in big games sometimes he perhaps tries too much, Ntcham has probably been even more stop start due to not getting a decent run in the team, so for me Sinclair is the only player we have signed since BR came in that made an instant impact and i doubt the board will sign someone in January that will make and instant impact and therefore a big enough impact to improve our squad before our El campaign begins. If we are honest enough we will know that throughout the history of our club our biggest failing has always been to improve the squad from a position of strength, so once again forgive me for my negative thoughts but I doubt very much that BR will be given the funds to imrprove us in January. |

Hopefully Rodgers will reflect on Tuesday night as evidence that the board need to back him with prospective signings in the Dembele or Sinclair bracket in terms of bolstering our starting eleven, not wasting resources on pointless fringe players like Jonny Hayes. Sadly we all know that won't happen. |

Hopefully we can all agree we need 3/4 players that can go into the first team.... Anything else we will have been short changed. Team needs minorish surgery. Board need to open up the book and help gaffer fix our issues Edited by littlegmbhoy, 10 Dec 2017, 03:36 PM.

The team doesn't need 'rebuilding' and players have notagically become pish, 'disinterested' or other hysterical/slanderous nonsense. The team needs depth. Players are starting to struggle in games like this because of tiredness - and little wonder why. We've played 32 competitive games already, and that's without much of a summer break. If the 'squad' players can't step up and take the pressure off for just a few weeks, we need to find players who can. |

That's true about the squad players atm but we shouldn't be looking for more or better squad players, we should be looking at least 3 players this window who'll come in as first team players. The manager has done as much as he can with this group. |

We need first team players, particularly in defensive positions. It's not primarily about a lack of depth. |

The full ~25 man squad should, ideally, be capable of being "first team players". It's the lack of "first team players" outside the core 18 that's behind our lack of depth. Granted, injuries to as younger players have been an issue that we can't help, but the lack of trusted alternatives for Sinclair, Tierney, Lustig, Boyata and Jozo are a problem. |

We need at least 1 centre half in January and the gk needs replaced almost as urgently |

Think vorm is exactly the type of keeper we need to suit Brendan's style of play desperately need ball playing ch preferably with pace as much as I love lustig a wing back that can offer more going fward would be good as right now nearly every attack seems to come down the left add to that a creative cm and we are sorted not expecting all this in January but think it's a must to improve in Europe liked the look of trebel when we played anderlecht no idea what he would cost though |

We need to add a few commas, some full stops and maybe a semi-colon if the budget will stretch to it. |
