I would be surprised if we signed anyone unless Grealish gets injured

As we’re already at the squad max 25 we’ll need to let a few go before anything is feasible I guess.

Just drop Lansbury off at Cork City or somewhere, sick of the fella at this stage.

Now Heaton is almost fit again, I can't see any need to have 4 keepers in the squad in January so I reckon Kalinic will be out of the squad for a start in January, whether someone takes him off our hands or not. I also wouldn't be shocked to see one or more of Guilbert, Engels and Hourihane off in January.

Plenty of space for a new shit-hot striker to challenge/play with Ollie depending on circumstance (would still like Edouard from Celtic) and a massive but mobile defensive midfielder to challenge or cover Luiz/McGinn when needed.

Priority for me is a wide-right forward. But that's obvious.

Cover for Watkins if Wesley isn't going to be available is the only position I'm particularly arsed about sorting this transfer window.

I think we will get someone in on loan as a forward is my guess. The club really want Wes as the other option to Watkins. I don’t imagine he will up to full speed until Feb. Dean Smith has already spoken about that position being one they have discussed. We simply cannot go into the second half of the season with Ollie on his own. That would be suicide.

I agree with Footy that Anthony Robinson at Fulham would be a good acquisition.

He has looked good tonight but it’s the first time I have noticed him (also first Fulham match I’ve seen).

I can't be having a player who spells 'Anthony' in such a way. No Todds, no Antonees.

Fun fact but he nearly joined AC Milan last January but he failed a medical. They were also apparently looking at Matty Cash aswell.

United states got some of the best young players in world football currently, Pulisic, Dest, Gio Reyna, McKennie, Tyler Adams etc. Also got a young CB coming through at Bayern Munich. Reminds me of Belgium a decade ago.

I think we're in a nice position this January, if someone of the required quality becomes available we can probably be in for them. We can arguably be in the market for any position except for a goalie and right-back.

It's nice to not be in a position of desperation. The desperation that leads to you signing Drinkwater, Samatta and Baston.
