DR are reporting we're in for Jota from Brentford after his loan spell at EIbar is due to be cut short.

I can't say i've really ever seen him play but its out there.

Warbs rates the guy massively. It could be a good signing, we are in need of a player that can unlock defenses and that's exactly what Jota can do. That being said he has struggled for game time recently.

Was he not one of his top players at Brentford?

Jota and Pritchard were outstanding for that team.

If we can get Jota in along with Solanke who's been mentioned as well it will be a great January.

Rossiter and Windass coming back in when they're fully up to speed will make the squad stronger.

Poyet was mentioned from ITK poster as well recently. Poyet, Jota and Solanke. All players better than most in the league.

Only show, Unlock defences, will any of these guys lock up our defence? think that should be number one priority. Of our 4 centre halfs imo only Wilson is of correct standard and he seems to have injury/ fitness problems. Clint Hill is a good pro and mentor for the youngsters but at 38 lacks physicality to impose himself.

FD, the only centreback I reckon will join us in january is Boyle from Dundalk. I reckon we will also try and get a player in from down south on a pre contract. Senderos will be away in the summer and Hill will go into coaching. So 2 Centrebacks are a must for next year.

Jota was in excellent form for Warburton at Brentford and the very type of player we lack just now is direct skilful can score and set up goals rangers this has to be number 1 priority defence is good enough to get us second in the leauge we can sort this later we are lacking goals hearts and Aberdeen have scored more goals than us and even st Johnstone are only 2 goals behind us.

the two guys from Dundalk went to Preston North End.

Gram, never even noticed that. Surprised we didn't pursue them more, I don't see PNE offering anymore than 10k a week. I reckon their wages were more likely to be 6-8k. With Boyle going there, Bailey Wright could now be a player we could pick up?

for me we shouldn't be looking at the irish league as for me none of the mentioned would strengthen our team just my opinion.

I would likethe manager to try lure kyle bartley leeds. the guy is in good form just now and better than anything we have at the moment. big strong no nonsense defender that has pace aswell as brains. maybe not the best in the world but would be best in the league if he came here.

Leeds skipper mate, they are going better than they have for a while too now. Will be on decent cash and plays in front of decent crowds (although not a patch on ours! ) would love to see it happen, highly unlikely though.

Think give young Burt a run and get the lad Thomson back from Raith, they will add to the squad and can unlock defences. Also let's get young Hardie back in January and in the first team squad. These 3 plus a quality central defender will add to the squad and secure 2nd place.

For me we need a midfielder to get beyond the striker and that's direct. I haven't seen this guy play much, if at all, but i can recall seeing his name on the scoresheet a few times in championship.

I trust the manager.

Thorn 76, would this be the same Solanke whose contract negotiations with Chelsea stalled when he demanded £50k a week? The guy who is yet to play a senior game this season?
