Another central defender
Another Central midfielder
Another winger
Another attacking midfielder (for when Jacobs breaks down again)
Another striker
Mnoga,Mingi,Vincent - should probably go on loan til Xmas to get some proper mens game time
Not sure why we need another central midfielder - we've already got Pack, Morrell, Thompson, Tunnicliffe. Mingi. Jewitt-White & Bridgeman fighting for two places, or three at a stretch depending on the formation.
Even if you only regard the first four of them as first teamers it is hard to accommodate them already, but the evidence of pre-season is that the other three are good enough to feature if necessary. .
I can't see many more signings now, probably just centre back cover (Thomas?) and one more backup striker (the spurs lad?). He wants a smallish squad - roughly two for each position - and that would give him that, with some youngsters who look increasingly ready not included in that.
As long as the new keeper and new right-back are solid we have a very good looking squad - DC asked to be judged after three wndows and on paper I would say he has done well, they just need to do it on the pitch now.
