Stephens has been looking very sloppy recently and Propper can be a bit hit and miss too. I think Kayal should be given a chance in the Prem after his performance vs Palace but can't help but feel we could do with another option in the centre of the park to give us a fighting chance of staying up. Maybe even a loan player from one of the top clubs would be sufficient...

[Albion] Do we need another CM to stay up?

Yes and a speedy replacement for Brown

Yes, with pace who can break forward and score.

I’d be happy with another proper centre mid, a physical ball winning type. Andy King from Leicester has been linked with us and I personally think he’d be a really sold signing. In addition to that we need another attacking midfielder/winger.

Yes, we have to replace what we've lost as a minimum IMHO. That means replacements for each of Brown, Sidwell and Murphy. Locadia is the business we should have done in the summer but failed to.
But then we need a new CB to cover Connor.
Damn, this transfer business is tougher than it looks...

No we dont need one just an old head to replace Sidwell and possibly a striker to partner Locardia and offer competition to Gross.

No. Kayal looked absolutely excellent when he came on.
The only thing that will keep us up at this point is spending money on a credible strike force.

So we do need one to replace Sidwell
Yes but only an old head as back up in the squad not as the OP hinted to walk straight into the team as Kayal runs around a lot but produces nothing constructive.

This. I wouldn’t say no to another striker but I’d be amazed if we managed to bring in TWO strikers in one window.

I rate Kayal.

So yes we do need another CM .....and yes another old head to replace the one that’s injured
Tad harsh on Kayal who’s not really had much of an opportunity to impress
Too greedy! We've just spent £14M ffs! A CM to replace Sidwell, yes - three CMs really isn't enough, and both Stephens and Propper have pretty much been run into the ground. A loan deal would be fine - Andy King has been suggested; he'd do, plus maybe a few chances for Molumbey to have a few minutes now and again.
To all intents and practical purposes, Baldock replaces Brown, and we've got the required number of four wingers in the squad - March, Knocky, Izquierdo and Skalak (even if some of you don't like Skalak) - and I suppose LuaLua, though I hope he doesn't get near the team now! Youngsters may get a chance off the bench too.
