Not Leaburn’s biggest fan but draw the line calling Ahadme betterRonnieMoore said:

If we're able to, I'd want to see if we can shift on the likes of Tanto, Berry, Gillesphey etc. to get better squad players.
If we're getting in another striker that would put Tanto in competition behind Kelman, Leaburn, Godden, Campbell, New Striker, Kanu and Mbick.
Which would be fine if he were 17-19, he's 26.8 -
So Ronnie you don't rate Anderson,Campbell, Leaburn, or Ramsay (since the Millwall game), all expressed within the past hour on this thread. Players you do like and think are good enough- care to make a list just so I'm clear?1

Not sure Ramsay would want to go back to Southampton anyway0

Nonsense. Ramsay was a MoM contender in the last game he played at home to Oxford.RonnieMoore said:

All those wishing to protest for the immediate return of Ahadme should form an orderly queue in the car park (warning! will the crowds please beware of pot holes)...... all together now -gringo said:RonnieMoore said:

i hate to agree with Ronnie but Kayne has been really inconsistent. Started strong. Was poor for a couple months but has been good his last couple of matches.0 -
The entire team has been inconsistent2

Hope he doesnt see it as "unfinished business"fenaddick said:Not sure Ramsay would want to go back to Southampton anyway0 -
Seems it would be a result to hang onto Ramsay this transfer window
NJ keeps banging on about Godden coming back - we cannot wait for that - he’s been out far too long and it will take over a month for him to get up to match fitness so even if he came back in Feb earliest he could be banging them in would be Late March and April too late
HUGE RISK he breaks down again in returning, which unfortunately is more and more likely considering his initial operation did not work
we need an experienced striker in (worry is our latest 2 experienced loans have made no impact)
who is there available to get ?
IMO we will need to break the bank to get someone in and if we are doing that then we would also need to do that for LWB - that’s another £10m gone just there !4 -
Just had a cursory glance at the League 1 top scorers , don't think any of them would be available - currently it's Salech at Cardiff, Dom Ballard at Orient , DKD and Tolaj at Plymouth all tied on 11 goals.
DKD by all accounts won't move south , Tolaj and Ballard moved in the summer and Cardiff will want Salech to fire them to promotion.0 -
Just looking through championship squads at strikers that aren’t playing that might be realistic targets
Sam Gallagher - not playing much at Stoke, not prolific but would be a decent signing for someone to do a lot of the dirty work up front that would probably benefit Kelman
Ryan Hardie - injured at the moment so probably not available till the end of the month. Been mentioned a lot on here and has scored 10+ goals at championship level in the last 2 seasons. Concern would be that he’s currently injured and barely played this season so might take him a while to get up to speed
Daryl Dike - not getting much game time at West Brom. Wouldn’t be keen on this as he has had so many injuries in recent years, but if you get him fit he’s a real handful.
So if we are looking for realistic championship striker signings then there really aren’t many options from other championship clubs that would be available now. Though in January it feels like nearly every team is looking for a striker so that might free up some more options later in the window

Considering our style would it be better to sign some 6'6 target man for these long balls from defense that Kelman can play off of, rather than a goalscorer in a similar mold.0
-
Or keep working hard on Leaburn and Kelman building a partnership? Sometimes the answer is under our nose. A bit more depth / alternative would be good of course - though it’s really not going to be easy to find a ready made solution in the January window.SELR_addicks said:Considering our style would it be better to sign some 6'6 target man for these long balls from defense that Kelman can play off of, rather than a goalscorer in a similar mold.

Dike would be a Nathan Jones dream but he just can't stay fit. Got all the attributes Nathan loves in a striker but his injury record is terrible. Big physical target man , with pace who knows where the back of the net is.NabySarr said:Just looking through championship squads at strikers that aren’t playing that might be realistic targets

I think someone to challenge Leaburn would be good as he can't keep playing every minute. His hamstring will go before too long5

Better tell Jones that because striker is one of the areas we're looking for according to Mendez and Cawley.Weegie Addick said:

I know he’s said it. And I’d be delighted to strengthen that area, just don’t think it will be that easy, and Leaburn is showing a lot of evidence of being capable as a 6 foot 6 target man. We do still need to be careful with Leaburn on the injury front after all.SELR_addicks said:

Harsh to say Bree has made no impact was brilliant for 10 games, and had a dip in form like everyone else. His defending has been solid but if he can just rediscover how to fix his set pieces/crossing he becomes a good option again.TheAddicks4Ever said:Seems it would be a result to hang onto Ramsay this transfer window

It’s easy for us fans to say let’s just sign a target man that’s an upgrade on Leaburn. If you actually look around at what’s available then it becomes more difficult.Weegie Addick said:

For a target man, is a young PL loan or League 1 player going to be any better than Leaburn? Probably not. Then if you look at championship squads there aren’t really any target man types that look like they’d be available this month0 -
10 games?! More like great for the first 5, average for the next 5 and then pretty shite for the next 10!Crispywood said:

To be fair, when Kayne 1st came back after the Millwall sending off his performances were shaky, including the 1st half at Ipswich, he then has turned it around to look more himself. Sometimes people post towards the poster rather than read the comment. Ronnie you do come out with some ole tosh but tend to agree to a point on this one.Oh Eddie Youds... said:

Shame Elijah Adebayo is still out injured after tearing his ACL in April. NJ took him to Luton in the first place and would fit that physical presence role up front.
Probably one to see how he comes back in League 1 and then see about for the summer.2 -
Not sure what Jones’ plan is once we have our players back. If we are planning on returning to TC and Kelman as the front 2 starting most games and pressing from the front with TC as a hybrid LW/ST, then I think the attacker we should looking at is Louie Barry. Not playing enough at Sheff Utd so will most likely be moved somewhere else in the championship. Would be a good option in the TC role as he played a similar role for Stockport last season in a 3-5-2 and scored loads0

If the Kayne rumours were true, how much makes us blink on this one??0

Jamie Donley joining Oxford… shame as would have liked him here to link up with Kelman, now even worse he’s going to a direct rival.Very interested to see how he gets on.6
