I think we need to move Kelly, Mutch and Sako on. We have enough cover at the back now, especially with TFM seemingly able to play across the back line. Mutch needs no explanation and Sako seems to need a regular run to keep his fitness up and never seems to offer anything as a sub.

If we can move those three on (which seems unlikely) then that could free us up to bring in back up to Wilf/Andros and a striker and then maybe we could look to get a GK on loan from abroad with the option to buy in the summer if it works out.

As it stands I think we just need Bentenke to find form and we'll start turning draws into wins. Cabaye is playing the best he ever has for us and Wilf and Andros continue to play well, plus the Tomkins/Sakho pairing looks solid(ish). Roy really has done a great job so far. He looks less one-dimensional in his approach than perhaps we saw under Pulis, Pardew and Allardyce, plus he is intelligent, articulate and pragmatic.

If we get out of the bottom three then I think the confidence will rise and we will pull clear. Of course we have to do that first!

We need a striker and another striker /winger, just someone who can create please. And a gk obviously. We’re one or two players away from being a really good side!

You seem optimistic that there will be a number of purchases in January, I wouldn’t be so sure.
Unless we can move on some of the deadwood like Lee and Mutch, I just can’t see another spending spree like last January, it’s not sustainable.

A win against West Brom (which isn't outside the realm of reasonable) could see us well placed to escape the drop zone

Definitely need a keeper on the basis that we only have 2 senior keepers whereas others have a minimum of 3.
And the need for a sriker goes without saying.
A central midfielder who can spray passes about wouldn't go amiss either.
