From p@b we seem to have a goalkeeper problem. Ox injured and Hegyi recalled. Talk of Connelly being recalled and the signing of Archie Mair. 

 

We've had an injury crisis just about everywhere else so why not goalie too. It just gets worse and worse.

Is Taveres on a season long loan ? I thought it was just until Jan, but he's in that training vid the club shared earlier.

Maybe west ham will change mind if they know he is going to be getting games 

It looks like the goalie from norwich will be signed in time for tomorrow whatever happens.its frustrating that whenever we get players back we immediately pick up more injuries.

Thats true but, IF he comes this month, I suspect he'll be brought in to beef up the midfield i.e replace Davor.  As its stands we badly need a physical defensive midfielder and a hulking target man, if we want to stick to Ketts' plan but make it 

Archie Mair announced loan till end of the season

Might be a bit reactionary but surely games like today highlight the need to improve the squad both now and at end of season.

Ox- Keep, Mair- Too early to say, will also go back to Norwich, Connelly- keep as Bu?

Kaleta- Make permanent if possible, SOD/Koutrombis- Move On

Balmer, Gordon - Keep Blaney- Still not sure on Mcginn- Release too injury prone Casey- I'd probably let move on. Seddon- Keep

Wilson - Keep as BU, Sign a LWB

Davor, Callahan- Move on, Lennon Miller- WIll be sold, Paton, Sparrow-Keep, Halliday- Keep as BU, Andrews- Will go back to Cov, Nicholson - Move on too injury prone. Slattery - offer 2 year deal if he can stay fit too end of season.

Maswanhise- Probably be sold if offer comes in, Vale- Will go back to Blackburn would like to keep if possible. Robinson-Keep, Ebiye- Move on, Watt-Depends on form to end of season, Taveres- Send back to Hibs.

If we are going to persist with this anti-football football then it’s imperative that we use this January window to inject pace and athleticism into the team. 

100% 

- LWB, probably a Target-Man and a Holding mid

- Try and punt Callahan and Koutrombis, offer Ebiye and Davor out see if anyone will take them

and more physicality. However to achieve that we'll need to shift some bodies out.

Take it we don't rate Connelly? Third in line and then when an opportunity arises, we bring someone else straight into the team. Writing is surely on the wall for him. You wonder why we resigned him.

I was thinking exactly the same thing. He does seem to be on the small side for a Premiership goalie and doesn't seem to have progressed.

Casey apparently signed a pre contract with hearts. There is about 50% of our squad out of contract. I would give kotroumbis a run at right back see how he goes not seen much of him to have an opinion. Sod is horrendous the now and getting slower every week.

If true, that’s no great loss. Casey tries hard and often puts his body on the line, but those attributes are replaceable at this level, and let’s not forget that he didn’t want to be here in the first place.

Casey is dreadful. Hearts are welcome to him...

My Hearts supporting mate doesn't think there's anything in the Casey rumours as it's seemingly just one guy who claims to be in the know who posted in one of the Hearts forums.

They've just signed 2 CB's and have 2 currently  injured so unless they're planning on changing their entire back line it seems a strange signing but then again you never know.

I am going to put it out there and you might think it's bonkers.   The Bair hasn't really been featuring much for Auxerre and only has 1 goal,  is it worth trying to get him on loan?

I think we sold extremely high, and made out like bandits, I would pass.

Bair might struggle in the current team.  Last season 'feed the Bair' was the chant with likes of Gent and Spittal feeding. 

For me we need to sort out the creative/feed  part of the team .  I think we've got enough strikers who can put the ball away.

No, we had the once in a career season from Bair, paid nothing for him and Robbed Auxerre of £1.6 million selling him on

McGinn is out for four months, I wonder if we will look to add defensively now.

Thats bad news, but in no way surprising. If there is a silver lining its that we have time in this window to bring in a replacement. Other things being equal, we should do.
