Never been more certain we'll sign someone.

Forget the wide player stuff, or even GK he keeps talking about. If you read Martinez's words carefully over the past few weeks he's always placed doubt on the need to strengthen in either of those two areas right now. One place he has clearly identified as weak and incapable of being solved in the remainder of the season is a creative force in the midfield. He's stated a number of times that Osman and Pienaar aren't realistically going to make it back this season and I reckon with Eto'o gone everything is going on a search for a playmaker.

I am 100% certain we might.

You think he's going to bench Barkley and Naismith to accommodate a new attacking midfielder?
 

Hey anyone else think that if we lose tomorrow and we've no incomings that with Bobby in charge we're going to be struggling until big Sam takes over ?
 
He's saying all this to the press but he's genuinely, 100%, looking at wide options. We'll sign at least one player before the deadline.

Naa, £10m isn't much if you've got it, but do you seriously think we've got it? I don't. I've supported us long enough to know when we're verging on skint or are skint. I do think we've got a bit for a loan or 2 possibly or for a cheap permanent signing but I think it'll be in the summer when the next lot of tv money comes in that we'll have funds.
We made more than 20m profit last year after transfers. This year we've had bumper crowds and excellent season ticket sales. We might have been skint but we aren't now, none or the premiership clubs are due to the new sky money. I wish fans would stop reciting that we're broke - it gives the board the excuse not to reinvest that money.

But if we're not skint why isn't Martinez spending? "Saving for summer" means were skint till summer or someone is sold is summer same old same old bills a blue Yada Yada

May be he just hasn't found the right player available,we can all say buy him loan him.But at the end of the day it's his job to find the right players not ours,one thing I don't want is players bought for the sake of it.
