I think Andy Reid is a bit fat, personally.

Would be happy with just a quality winger tbh.
To be backups?
We need a solid right back that can fill in for Seamus, no top class RB is coming here. Same for striker, Rom is 1, Sammy is 2...no one top class if coming to be 3.
We need a left winger, and a keeper. I don't even think we really need a center back - assuming Galloway or Browning will be stepping up in the next year or so.

vorm is an awful GK
Not meaning to pick on you, but several people keep saying this and it just isn't true.
On the left we can choose from: Mirallas, Pienaar (both of whom are strongest on the left wing) and Oviedo. McGeady appears there from time to time as well.
On the right we have Mirallas, McGeady and Atsu (who is on loan).
Our first choice right wing is better on the left; our second choice is Aidan McGeady....
We need a right winger FAR more than we do a lefty.

Depending on how quickly Browning/Galloway can make the step up, maybe a loan until the end of the season for a CB would be an option. Nastasic? Alcaraz is too much of a sick note to rely on.
Apart from that, all our squad really needs at the moment is a winger (though this could change if Atsu improves) and a backup right back.
Of course, we won't get all three of these things in January.

Yer ma's favorite ITK. Mmmmmm Juicy.
Can't see Nastasic happening unless City buy another centre half in January, they only have 4 of them with first team exp, Nastasic being one. I do agree though would be a good signing even if for 6 months but can't see it happening.

Either way we need a winger is my point.
Mirallas is top class.
McGeady isn't the same level as Kev and we need someone that is.
I agree that Oviedo could do a job on the other wing and when he's fit he'd be my pick with Kev on the other side.
Atsu isn't good enough..
Mirallas has been injured too often to reasonably assume he'll always be available
McGeady has impressed me lately, but even then he's probably not your best first team choice
I would love to see Oviedo fit enough to be on the team sheet weekly; if that's the case, is he a first choice LM or LW?
Atsu does not seem good enough yet
Pienaar can do a job, but his future is not as first choice on the left
The team has been employing Osman, Barkley, and Naismith in wide positions when needed, but none of these are wide players.
The club needs at least two players that can play the wing, preferably those who are also comfortable centrally. A week ago I thought the squad relatively stable at CM, given the options the club has. No reason to think we're deeper in wide positions.
How do I start an Andre Schurrle January loan rumor?

you just did
It's not obvious to me how he fits in Mourinho's team, it only makes sense that he'll leave to further his career
Step 1: Create dubious Twitter account under official-ish looking pseudonym such as:
Sportofact.com
TheThirdHalf
Footballindex
Insiderballs
Sportyknowledgefootnews
Step 2: Make rumour. Pose it as a question that essentially demands a click from a browser.
Step 3: Hashtag with something that is, at once, catchy and unwieldy to make it fully palatable to the post-modern internet-savvy football fan.
It should look something like this:
Sportofact.com Has Mourinho had enough of a certain mercurial German? #Schurrleyoucantbeserious
14,000,000 replies retweets 2,003 favorites
Step 4: Post it here. Some our more dilligent members will see through the facade immediately, but it will be quickly picked up on our more gullible element, who will either desperately want the rumour to be true, or pretend they don't want the rumour to be true to sidestep inevitable future heartache.
Step 5: Watch Schurrle's name begin to pop up frequently in high-traffic transfer thread. It will quickly get to the stage where people will stop bothering to verify the original source of the rumour and become a self-propagating myth. Congratulations,you just made your first baseless transfer rumour.
