    Getting Jota back is a brilliant but all the chat seems to be about KT now. Getting KT in this transfer window would be very nice instead of waiting until the summer, but it’s far more important we sign a quality replacement for Kyogo. Maeda can play as a striker but will be suspended and Kyogo is gone so we are going into the Champions League last 16 play play- offs with only ONE recognised striker who has been poor all season. If we don’t have a replacement striker lined up for Kyogo then he should never have been sold at this point, it could have waited until the summer.

    Will be very disappointed and pretty disgusted if Kyogo is not replaced with some huge European games on the horizon.

    Jota, Tierney, Kvistgaarden and Slotslager would be the best January window in my lifetime, and it's not even close.

    Even just the first 3 would be an incredible window.

    I'm really not that concerned.

    Confident we will get another 2 minimum before the window shuts. Maybe 3.

    If this was a few years back I'd be very concerned but quite confident we are a bit more organised now.

    Think CM/another winger/RB could happen in the summer and we would be fine midfield wise till then.

    I think the big physical CDM people are referencing won't happen. Other than Ndidi at Leicester I can't think of many times he's played with that type of player. We do need more of an all-rounder though who has some form of physicality.

    So 7 days to get a CF in or our options up top are:
    • Idah
    • Kenny
    • Maeda
    • Cummings

    It looks like your probably right there which for me is a disappointment as I really feel that the lack of a true big physical holding midfielder is a big hole in our squad at the moment.

    I completely agree feel its been one of the biggest areas where we have lacked for a fair few seasons now and unfortunately I would say your right this is another window where it looks like that it will not be addressed once again.

    I don't think it'll be far off that..

    Tierney will be done
    Jota in
    Kvistgaarden I hope we sign but no 100%
    The young centre back sounds likely

    Was hoping for Orjasaeter and maybe a centre mid but I'd be ecstatic with the 4 you've mentioned for 1 window..

    I'm confident we'll end the window happy. Few of the deadwood out as well. No too many left..

    All out for me, Kenny can apparently play for another team as LOI runs from march to November so it's a different window even though a Uefa comp.

    If Kenny goes it would maybe mean we get another winger/forward in. We've been linked with a fair few and it would appear we were bidding for Louie Barry same time as Jota was being finalised. Reading between the lines..

    Idah
    New ST
    New ST/winger who can do both

    Jusr have a feeling Rodgers wants to add a few goals and he spoke about that even before kyogo left.

    Striker and Tierney will be nice. I'll be a little worried about the striker until we announce one.

    On a CDM, they don't need to be big or particularly physical - just very good at winning ball back and not petrified to make a strong tackle (unlike our whole midfield today).
    Can and should also be technically excellent - think Paul Lambert, Neil Lennon.
