Ed02, can you see us signing a CM in January? If so, any potential names? We are linked with a new one on a daily basis so it'd be good to get some clarity.

We have no mobility or energy in the middle and until that's sorted, I can't see us being able to compete with any of the top teams in the middle. Hopefully, there is some light at the end of the tunnel and we are planning to sign at least one central player, otherwise I look forward to watching more incompetent displays.

{Ed002's Note - Don't discount an offer for Herrera but January is not a great time to go shopping. I do still expect a move for a left sided player.}

Sorry Eds but I don't know much about Herrera would he be what we need or do you think another midfielder in required

Cheers {Ed002's Note - I can't help you there.}

Think the left sided player will be Baines. Most of the top teams do without left wingers now and play forwards or creative players who like to come inside i.e Ribery, Ronaldo, Naymar. The left winger is then the left back i.e Alaba, Marcelo, Jordi Alba. I believe Moyes will pursue a similar system with Kagawa and Baines or Januzaj and Baines rendering Ashley Young obsolete. Real Madrid are even contemplating Gareth Bale at left back again for this exact reason.
