D-Day For Owls' Loan Deals

Why the hell is BL trying to get in a midfielder to 'play in the middle or out wide'? I think that midfield is the least of our problems as we have plenty of cover there. Get in a striker that is gonna find the net more than twice in 2 months. Shame to say it but maybe it's time for BL to move on??? Plot = lost

i'll play if they buy me some boots!!

Like barry hayles

Oh, and Lee "BUY SEASON TICKETS" Strafford will have a lot to answer for too.

All the "managers" are out again. I'm no big fan of Feeney & maybe we will end up with someone different but thats what you get when you have no cash. I'm interested, who would you bring in & how much do you think they would ask for in wages (assuming here that they come on free loan).

So, who would you try to sign?

Since you ask Wed1867, please don't accuse me of playing manager. I wouldn't sign anyone. There is no point signing a player unless he provides something we don't already have. What does Wednesday lack, a goalscorer would seem to be obvious. Unfortunately proven goalscorers rarely come available on loan and, as you have said, we have no money with which to buy one. So we have to examine what's wrong with our team. At the moment we have two forwards, Varney and Tudgay, who are of a similar stature, similar style and, unfortunately for us, have a similar goalscoring record this season. So what are our options? On the bench we have Jeffers (skilled but lacks commitment and has lost the fans), Leon (eratic, can be woeful, can be brilliant but in general better coming off the bench to tie up winning games), Akpo (out on loan but still our player, scored in first game on loan, looks appaling on the ball but provides something we lack, when he plays), JJ(officially a winger but second top scorer, one goal behind Tudgay, JJ lacks the bravery and commitment to make a forward but otherwise has all the attributes), Esajas (again a winger, has scored 3 goals but barely played 3 games). If you are asking me what I would do, well I'd stick to 4-4-2, experiment with Sodje and Leon up front (which would provide strength and height up front) and JJ and Esajas on each wing. In the middle I'd give O'Connor half a game to run himself into the ground breaking up opposition moves (replace him with McAllister at half time for the same role), next to him would be Gray or Potter (haven't made up my mind), back 4 of Frankie, Hinds, Beevers and Spurr, with Grant in goal. There you go. Please don't accuse me of being a would be manager, you asked what I would do.

Agreed on Varney, what's the betting we sign him?

Your team seriously lacks aphysical presence beyond the back four, Smiggy. Old fashioned view about needing the big feller but it's working for Newcastle.
