In his post match interview Deano let on he thinks we need a couple more players.
Where does everyone think we need bolstering? Any ideas as to where he thinks we need reinforcements?
I'm inclined to think our problem is midfield & defending from the front but I'm sure you'll all have your own ideas.

If Herd has now got up to speed we need a Striker (in the mould of Jack Lester) and a Right Back

Right back.

Since Angel got injured our main problem has been midfield. Angel is a defensive midfielder so he allowed Morsy to go forward and score, but also protected the back 4 really well. I'm not sure Chris Herd or Liam O'Neil is the answer

One, two, three....its a RIGHT BACK. If for any strange reason you missed that ...... it's a RIGHT BACK!!!

Saunders said 2 players. So for you that would be 2 right backs then!?

Make it three.RB,striker and a partner for Morsy in midfield.

Another striker? With Novak to come back? If so Lavery would be a good call

I think you may be on the money there

Tbh I was mildly impressed with Herd today, showed an attitude and conviction that did him credit. Admittedly he's starting from a low benchmark against poor opposition but fingers crossed.

Jack wasn't any good when balls were pumped up field either. What we need if DS is to continue with this tactic is a young Andy Morris to play with SEB

Was listening to the radio commentary of Palace and WBA on the way to the game and David Pleat commented on the WBA lone striker, Berahino (sic) I think. He said when a manager plays nine of his outfield players that deep then the lone striker, really is a lone striker and it's impossible for him to look good at all...maybe same applies to SEB.?

watched that game on BT, wba were awful, no interest in going forward until 1-0 down and then did little, very negative, the striker may as well have not played.

He has had very little support. However, whilst he's been stood on the halfway line eating fig biscuits it's done little for his figure...........

seb needs to balls his feet in the box or at least around the box. Long high punts up to him are pointless, you may as well play me up front

obviously I would prefer them not to play this tactic, but if he is to continue with it then you need the players (or rather physical athletes) to make it work.

Maybe better saying a physical presence?
Along the lines of that ikpeazu (not sure of spelling) chap on loan at port vale
