We might also have beaten Reading and Mansfield but didn't.
Because we're currently doing well, have a large and nearly all fit squad there is less urgent need to make signings.
Hopefully that means quality over quantity when/if we do sign someone.17 -
The next 4 days are very crucial...🙄🙏0

Feels like we're already at last minute. comSage said:Only a matter of time before Coventry gets a 2 match ban because of 10 yellows. I’d be very surprised if we were not to bring in 3 players between now and Monday’s deadline.
Another central midfielder, we can’t go with just the ones we have now.Another attacking midfielder, competition with Berry but someone who is different and can carry the ball through the middle well as well as pick a pass.
Another wide forward type who can help Small and TC. They must have pace and the ability to carry the ball, get us up the pitch, and run at players/in behind defenders.
Bring in these players and we have a real chance of doing what we want to achieve by the end of May.0 -

Had his foot stood on by TC in the warmup at Preston , no idea how long he's out for , has probably scuppered any plans to loan him out.wmcf123 said:

Dundee United potentially with a CM pairing of Lewis Fiorini and Allan Campbell 😬 , possibly 2 of our worst loan signings in recent years.....22

Did not notice Fiorini had moved again. Quite the career decline.0

If he is injured why did they have a clear whiteboard showing no injured players for the online meeting last week? They seemed very proud of the fact we had no injured players.MarcusH26 said:

I wonder what the percentage is of former players from the last 5 seasons playing in a level below us within a year of leaving. My guess is very high and an indication of the dross we have had in that time...20

I wonder what the percentage is that Chelsea and the likes have of their signings playing in the Prem for them or anyone else. These big clubs hoover up young talent, that are usually loaned out for the entirety of their contracts and I guess they will find their level. Some make the grade, but I'd wager a high percentage don't.Redhenry said:I wonder what the percentage is of former players from the last 5 seasons playing in a level below us within a year of leaving.

If Charlton are taking a punt on the likes of Dixon and even Ahadme, they may be found to be at lower level in their careers further down the line.0 -

Only at CAFC would we have a list of players who are injured enough to be ruled out of an online meeting.Bolderhumphreyreid said:

Always find Scottish football hard to judge. You'll get players like Josh Edwards has that will come down , settle in straight away and look like a class act and then you'll get some that never settle and are wanting a move back north inside 6 months.1 -

I can't imagine that we'd be comfortable letting Edun, Taylor and now also potentially ACampbell go without being pretty sure that we have at least one (if not two) midfielders come in. If either of Coventry or Docherty got multiple week injuries, we've basically got Anderson and the academy players as cover and that's it. I don't think we'd be letting players go if we didn't have the confidence we would have them replaced - even with squad trimming, you need the cover.
I hopeful that we get two - another box-to-box CM, and another that is more creative/attack-minded. Another winger would certainly be useful to provide some cover for Small and TC and/or be a "game-changer". Sadly, I still think Dixon is too raw to make a difference this season. Defensively, we'll probably be fine with what we have, but I would absolutely not be averse to backup/cover in the LCB role.
The CAM should be the one with the money spent. The others can be cheaper punts or loans - gambles that could pay off again. If we do miss out on playoffs this season, then we have a strong, strong basis for next year to build.4 -
Is this a new ruling that the transfer window stays open till Feb 3 or a one off?0

The date usually changes with each window, I assume based on where the weekend falls and in August the bank holiday too. Might be lined up with the window closed dates in Europe as well.sillav nitram said:Is this a new ruling that the transfer window stays open till Feb 3 or a one off?

I suspect we’re all going to be very disappointed in a few days time. Please don’t get your hopes up. I’d say we’ll come out of this window weaker rather than stronger.8
-
The 2 players who have played for us in recent years who would be the perfect signings for the 2 positions we are looking for would be rak Saki and Gallagher. I know there's not a hope in hell of getting those 2 but a tricky, pacey winger and a cam who is mobile/physical and can hunt down and bully defenders, create, and score.5
-
Positive results or not, there should be some urgency to sign some players.
TC, Coventry and Berry looked shot the other night. Coventry and TC could probably do with a rest, and are there players ready to step up and fill their shoes? I don't believe so.
All well and good while the results are coming in, and it has been good, but the fatigue will catch up when we are already trying to keep up a points tally, and we will regret it if this is a wasted opportunity.
A few new bodies in could be the difference, and worst case they don't, they will be part of our squad for next season.
Come on Charlton, get moving.15
