We need someone to replace Greer, before the start of next season preferably, so devoid of any pace at central defence and it really shows in this league.
A nice ball playing South American centre half please.
Preferably with long hair and a flair name!
see above for answer to this.
I know that, but we have conceded a lot of late goals from defending too deeply, particularly at home. We could have the best defensive record if our centre backs were quicker.
Other players have suffered a step up in divisions Painter, Navarro & Sparrow all very liked Albion players who did a great job for the club but not in the championship , I feel others could suffer the same fate if we went up another tier like I said El Abd maybe Greer Maybe Calderon all great players but might struggle at a higher level I hope not and hope I'm proved wrong because all good lads
As a team we are a million miles from the prem. We could go up via the play-offs as we can offer the odd great performance but over a whole season?
If we did, take the money, prepare for a little humiliation on occasion, and use the dosh to create depth and quality by bringing in some younger premier cast-offs as well as a couple with experience to develop and prepare the squad.
Gus will also need time to adapt and our back room staff would need to be improved. We have the support (Although fickle and at times delusional), the ground, soon to be training facilities and the ambition. Just need a dose of reality and good sense to make it happen.
I think you're being kind to the squad; it's more of a case of who could play at Prem level?
I'd say 5 or 6 might be good enough.

Lopez only signed for us on a 1 year deal so we need to get him signed up to a new contract asap
I've heard today that we are after vaz te on loan
And where did you hear this?

Indeed. If we did gain a Premiership place with the current squad, a mass cull and purchase exercise would be essential unless the board are willing to entertain an immediate return to the Championship!
