Breel Embolo. Offer him a lot of money and a relegation release clause.

Has there been any new Franco Baresi's or are we to be the ones to unearth him?

If QPR are still struggling in January, I have my doubts that Austin will be available.

I personally don't think we need anybody.

Guzan has been well below par so far this season and Gestede has severe deficiencies. But I expect Guzan to get back to a reasonable standard and Ayew/Kozak to pick up some real form before January. I'm happy enough with our defence and midfield. Unless there is a clearly superior (and more importantly, available) option out there, I'd keep the money in the pocket until the summer.

Lacazette sounds decent but we've probably got no chance. With Remi though who knows, worked with him before.

Embolo is too young, we need someone proven, now.

Miles too good for the bottom club in England I'm afraid.

We better get off the bottom of the table in the meantime then!

Striker and Goalkeeper

We still have Okore to come in at centre half

and the options of Ilori & Gardner have to be exhausted in defence/midfield before go out buying more in my opinion

I'm sure Garde will know of many strikers that we've never heard of so I'll leave it to him. As long as they have more than 8 touches per half I'll be happy

History has a habit of repeating itself. 5 years ago we needed a goalscorer to keep us up. It was Bent. Today it's Vardy.

I still think Austin would be a good shout. Remy on loan would be perfect but unlikely to come if there is a new manager in town at Chelsea. Whoever a strong mobile striker with a bit of pace and power is a must but decent with the ball. Benteke basically!!!

Keeper is a must.

Hutton is good enough at right back for our level so can wait for me. Even centre half we are OK. Another driving midfielder would be nice to. Someone that can make the sort  of run Veretout made second half when Ayew didn't curb his run. Think if we play a diamond regularly an extra man might be useful.

I would be after a genuine winger too.

Loic Remy seems like the sort of calibre we'll need to make a big difference.

Lets be realistic, we aint going to get the likes  of Remy. We need a striker to go with the shape of that team, Guzan has to sort himself out and Hutton will not be right back long term.
