Same old, same old.We are linked to everyone, have plenty of irons in the fire, the manager is waxing lyrical about bringing in players to freshen up the squad / provide cover / add competition and we just sit on our hands.Player was too expensive / wasn't available / didn't want to come - delete as appropriate.Its a very dangerous game that were yet again playing with players who started the season well now starting to flag a little (yes, ironic after a thumping 7-0 win)I understand 49ers don't want their pants pulled down on transfers etc but its starting to reach Gawwy fog platting levels when were linked with players and mysteriously fail to land any when all our nearest rivals for promotion have strengthened.I(f we can keep everyone fit and firing I still think we'll be ok but were taking a very big risk if we get a glut of injuries / have players start losing form / burnout etc.
I think that hits the nail firmly on the head.
Stay injury free and we go up.
I had this debate with some of my Leeds friends who argue we are top of the league why do we need to sign anyone.
My view is what`s wrong with making it impossible to beat us and all successful teams/businesses have a contingency plan.
How long can Aaronson keep up the intensity?
Same with Rodon who if he gets injured we are bu$$ard as I think he holds the defence together.
Sheffield I believe have signed 7 players in January.
I think we have missed a trick with Iheancho tbh.
