Seems a big lad, pretty mobile and according to YouTube he can do mad skills. Having watch said clip against Betis I can confirm he has both skills and that said skills are indeed, mad.

Yes
The first time it's being played similar to world cup months mid June to mid July so no problems there.

Along with several other defensive additions, a new DM in January is looking vital

Agree with that !
I feel a defenders and midfielders will be the targets this wonder window

Happy new years to you and let's hope 2019 is a great one all round !

Doukouré looks to be the best-bet of those linked so far as he adds a bit of height (as well as mobility) to the team. None of our central defenders are particularly dominant in the air so somebody who could do a job similar to the one Jedinak did in that Blose game last season- just screening the back 4 from long balls - whilst having the legs to drag the team further up the pitch, would be very welcome. 

I know I've mentioned him before, but Marlon pack at Bristol City does this excellently for them, and would be a great signing for us.

But that just doesn't sound like the sort of holding midfielder Smith has played with before

Seems like a bit of an odd one to me

You're right, but he hasn't really played with 2 out-and-out wingers before either. I think he realises that he needs an anchor in midfield to allow our wide-men to attack more freely.

I see Mr. Potato Head is due to roll up at Sheffield Wednesday tomorrow. I wonder if we can interest him in any of our crap/deadwood erm... experienced reliable pro's in exchange for anyone who can pass the ball in their team, seeing as they're now surplus to requirements.

Aren't Wednesday under some kind of transfer embargo? They've backed the wrong horse in Bruce if so!

i know our defence is weak, shallow and all over the shop with people playing out of position etc

but i still worry about the midfield more
imo we only have two really decent midfielders and one of them is out for a while, unless we strengthen in that area we will just keep giving up possession and inviting trouble onto the defence and will never be as dangerous in attack

midfield to me is the key

Just read on twitter that Jack is out for the rest of the season and Axel and Tammy are being recalled.I hope to God its a dodgy rumour.

How good is your source??
Don't come oh here saying that 'just read on twitter' without more substance
It's unhelpful !
If this isn't true that's really irresponsible and I'm upset either way because that news is hard
Otherwise I aware you the mean post of 2018 !!

I like to trust what I read in here !
