Not happening this is it.

At minimum, we should be identifying and signing a loan striker, as a matter of urgency.
The bar doesn't need to be particularly high, 5 goals would be a great return from a loan striker between now and May.
Someone with pace would be an added bonus.
As it is, we'll sign nobody of that ilk or be left hanging on deadline day.
If we need to wait till then so be it, but not acting at all cannot be countenanced.

It's a nap. We'll do are usual win a couple on the bounce towards the back end of the season but by that time it's all to late.

Don't forget the mighty Robert Snodgrass from West Ham to West Brom!
Anyway Felipe Anderson couldn't even get a game at Porto, he's proper crap
Well we were never fixing the whole squad in the summer sadly.
Yeah, your saying we only needed an attacker, but we didn't only need an attacker, we needed a new GK, a new RB, an option in midfield, a back up LB.

I don't know if it was an intentional gamble or just plain stupidity. Since we might be going into Wolves without Richy or DCL and they've still not fixed it after that bad run I'm leaning toward the latter.
100% agree, it's a process.
But there are priorities.
We don't really need a back-up LB, we just need Carlo to trust a young lad. He should do it. Because we need to spend money elsewhere.
GK, RB, midfielder - we can hold them off until the summer.
But we can't - and we couldn't in October - rely so heavily on two lads for our forward line. It was a daft decision and, while I understand the factors in play, I don't buy that we could not have mitigated the risk in someway heading into a season full of opportunity but full of more danger of injury, covid (long covid like Lascelles and ASM at Newcastle, even) and then the added fixture pile ups.
It's already cost us being able to at least give the League Cup more of a go - and we knew in September that we'd got to the quarters.
Going off what reliable people said, it was an intentional gamble.
Either way it's just absolutely nuts.
I don't see us signing anyone in the window, I think we're on the edge of FFP regulations as it is - so it would be difficult for us to really push anything forward without selling.
Thought FFP didn't count this season
Oh, if that's the case - get on the phone Marcel Brands you Dutch fraud and sign Messi lar
FFP is over a 3 year period.

Equally nuts is seeing how bad we were without one of them, not lining anything up, and could go into Wolves without either of them.
on one hand Ancelotti and the club are trotting out champions league and European qualification, on the other they are happy to go into a season with one decent striker with Sunday league Cenk as back up, as usual EFC talking like Real Madrid acting like Coventry City
