My bet is that lambert starts to entice n'zogbia's talent out around Xmas time and he takes up the weimann role on the right. But if I could buy anyone it would be a proven premiership midfielder. Not Scott Parker - too old and expensive - but someone like that.
If/when we're safe, I'd love to see us play with a front four of Gabby-Benteke-Bent-CNZ across the pitch and really give someone a hammering.
Interesting OP. Agree with a lot of it. Could write a lot but I think I'll just stick to Jan and summer departures:Jan:Hutton (free)Warnock (EOS loan)Herd (loan)Delfouneso (EOS loan)Summer:DunneGivenBowery (loan)DelfounesoWarnockHerdGardner (full season loan to Championship)Ireland (dont mind him but we can get a better AMC)Bent & Delph are seriously borderline, I'd give em six months to see if they can rediscover the form they showed when they first joined.
Of the new signings Benteke and Lowton have been very good, Westwood is now showing that potential as well. KEA I think will come good, as will Bennett in time. The only slightly confusing one is Bowery, not writing him off at all but I'm not really sure why he's getting on the bench.
