The answer to the question from Bruce seems to be both Adomah centrally AND Grealish out on the wing.

I wonder if he will try that for longer next game. It has potential to be good.

By all accounts Davis was jaded last night. Would be good to have a proper alternative. We’ll definitely need one by xmas - there’s four games in 10 days then. Can’t believe I’m willing gabby to be fit again

Adomah was carrying a Knick too. So wonder if he’ll be ok for Saturday.

Surely RHM must be close to fitness?

Few loan options i would be looking at:
1) Ulloa
2) Mitrovic
3) Ings
4) Crouch

Apart from Ulloa, I doubt if the others are very realistic possibilities, for various reasons.
 But, I would add Hal  Robson Kanu to that list , in style, he is like for like with Keinan, he has been a proven success at this level, and, with the Stripey´s getting a new Manager as well as, probably, new signings, he may be available.
The fact that his wife is a former Lingerie Model , has no bearing on my opinion , at all !.........Godzvilla!

Andy Carroll loan until the end of the season? Increasingly out of favour at West Ham...

Sure. Decent shout. I doubt West Ham will be looking to do us any more favours though, but if they are then, yeah.

We're being linked with a Czech striker aren't we?  Didn't work out too well last time (Libor suffered some really bad luck), but we'll see.  I think a striker and maybe some cover at CB is all we require in January.

No chance

He started their last game

They’re in a relegation scrap

I can't see any problem with us signing Andy Carroll given our respective records with injuries!

He also got booed off in their last game. He's been getting it in the neck from West Ham fans all season, add to that a new manager who is likely to make immediate changes in January and Carroll going into the last year of his contract next season. He'd be perfect in our current team if he could stay fit. Stranger things have happened.

Good point AND its Moyes here. if anyone is going to be daft enough to weaken his own squad its him.
