I think we need a left back, a dynamic box to box type midfielder, a wideman and another forward.

If they are of similar quality to what we have bagged thus far then we will have a very good season.

I think we'll be after two more players. A left back and an attacking player.

How I see it too. Not necessarily a striker, perhaps one who can provide the ammunition, which i still think is lacking.

I like the signings we’ve made so far as they have shown imagination, are a good mix of experience and youth, plus they look great value for money. 

But I have to be honest I have no idea of the quality of these players.  In a few months time we could be easily be saying that Lambert should have been looking at players better than “Norwich” type signings.

I think a striker is definitely on the cards.

I think as it stands Lambert initially doesn't have a open cheque book from Lerner to rebuild the squad and is seeking value for money to spread his money around bringing in players he feels will strengthen the squad for the coming season to stay clear of the relegation zone.

Maybe some of his purchases could turn out to be of Norwich's level (although our level last season was below Norwich's) but he has 3 year deal at the club and I expect Lerner has said show you can work with a limited budget and get the best out of his team to gain a comfortable position in the league and more funds will be made available over the next couple seasons to bring in some more higher profile players.

We know, it's going to be Grant Holt. You told us that quite vociferously.

I would like to see another wideman come in before the season starts.

I'm hoping he's said 'wait 'til I get my $997m from selling the Browns and you can have that'.

I think it's $100m, not $1bn from the Browns isn't it?
