For what it's worth, I think it will be Pearson and I am ok with that. I can understand those who aren't however the work he did with Leicester was magnificent. Even when they were doing poorly last season, they were still playing well. The negative press about him came at that time and I'm sure it must be quite stressful and therefore I can cut somebody some slack!
My only concern is that the majority of his key backroad staff are still employed by Leicester so we have no chance of getting them. Remi didn't get his backroom team either and so we were fighting a losing battle from the beginning.
At this stage id rather not bother at all. We'll either sign somebody who is not good enough or somebody who didn't want to come and was holding out for a better option.
Go go to the end of the season with what we have and take it from there.
Needs to play DM every game. Was exceptional on Tuesday, and has some of the best interception and tackling stats in the league.
If if we can find a box to box midfielder and have a diamond of Gana, B2B, Veretout and Gil we'd have a decent midfield!
I don't think Remi is what we need currently! Same amount of points as sherwood after 10 games and we sacked sherwood!
i think we should act whilst there is chance of getting Moyes or Perason. They'll be better prepared to bring us back up next year.
No point signing anybody with a view to keeping us in the league now. Better off trying to sign a few young British players from the lower leagues ready for next season.
Daniel Johnson and Jordan Graham?
New spine needed for me:
GK
Richards Okore CB Cissoko
DM Gueye
Ayew Veretout Grealish
ST
That instantly looks much stronger if we get the right people.
It wouldn't surprise me if we managed to get some good players this window - players who aren't playing regularly and need to before the euros.
Whether it it be a loan, or a permanent with a release clause, we can offer regular playing time and no long term risk!
Debauchy and remy on loans would be a great start - we'd have to send illori back though!
Those 5 players shouldn't cost a fortune as remy would be a loan, Madanda, Byram and Austin are all coming off contract at the end of the year and toulanan is obviously older.
If remy is a no go then Naismith could be a good alternative
