But with Cashin that was one game, and after he had played well at Hull.

The question is, what is Jorgensen about? What are his strengths?

I’m getting Marcus Antonnson  vibes from him. Early days I know.

[philipl]

Agree Cashin looking very solid and that was a goal.poacher finish last night.

27 into 25 doesn't go.

If Hedges is out to the summer it is pointless giving him a number.

Then it would seem that Ribeiro and Kargbo are below third choice on the left so we are likely to get a Sigurdson situation with one or both of them.

Kargbo looks like he has lost his pace whilst Ribeiro still has a lot to offer.

Doesn’t matter he got lambasted called slow and small and poor signing who brings nothing to the team etc etc 

Jorgensen is slightly different coming from a different country (I’m not defending the signing btw) different pace etc I think his movement has been good and I’d really like to see him flank either side with gudjohnsen. For me the next run of fixtures should give us a better idea of what he’s about if anything at all 

Yes, I like Jorgensen runs, quite intelligent. Doesn't seem particularly quick or strong or technical though. So i wonder how he beats a defender.

That said Gudjonsen looked a total passenger when he arrived, but as hes gone on his link up play and ability to compete with defenders have really improved. So all we can do is hope for something similar. 

[OJRovers]

True, Gudjohnson looked off the pace to start with too and he turned it around and became very effective. Hopefully Jorgensen can do the same.

Anyone know where Henrickson is? Not been on the bench the last couple of games?

If we stay up and get a decent manager.  Big ifs I know then I can see jorgensen and gudjonson having a fruitful partnership next season

Ohashi’s willingness to run has made Gudjohnsen’s job easier. Is Jorgensen capable of the level of effort.

We don’t know really I’d like to see him on either side of gudjohnsen with Ohashi in the 10 role as it’s clear cantwell is way too much of a luxury player in the circumstances we find ourselves

Ohashi in the attacking midfielder role. As Emerald said. Cantwell can move on

[RevidgeBlue]

Is it about this time we dig out the free agents list to see if there's anyone of any interest?

I wanted us to go for Diego Costa once. Lol.

Unsurprisingly we weren't interested.

They had to submit the 25 man squad last night

"Clubs must send in their final 25-man list to the EFL by 7pm on February 3rd. That can't be altered unless a team has vacant places, in which case free agents can be added."

If they filled  that then any free agents would have to be U21, which would make this your list to pick from (some of the 21 year olds may be unavailable depending upon when their birthdays fall)

He had a load of strapping on his leg last time we saw him (when he was soldiering on playing upfront against two big CBs), so I suspect he's being rested / is injured.

Ohashi can't pass, so how is he going to play in that role?

You're essentially asking for 4-4-2 - which is fine, but don't dress is up as 4-2-3-1 etc as Ohashi is incapable of playing as an AMC.

Any word on that yet?

Doesn’t look like it.

The EFL publish the lists within seven days of a window closing, whether the club will let us know sooner is anyone’s guess.

Riquelme, Kante and Mane for me.

Never seen them play and know sweet FA about them but I bet they are good ens

Ah to be fair Joey, I think a lot of people could see Gudjonsen had the ability to link up play early doors. He was being asked to pursue the back line relentlessly and was just running himself into the ground.

Jorgensen is showing similar signs of promise for me.

last season, they didn't make an announcement for a few days, but then posted something on the website

If they do similar, we should hear Friday or Saturday this week

I think I agree with you there. I don’t see Ohashi having the required vision and passing ability to play in that role.

I fully think it’s worth a look out because let’s face it can’t be worse than cantwell at present 

[Ricky]

If Kargbo is fit I’d have him in the 25 for the pure chaos his pace can cause. I’d have him ahead of De Neve but he’s in as he played last night. 

[Jimmy612]

I think if last night showed anything, it's that Forshaw has suddenly become a very important player for us (what a bloody state of events!).  Baradji has some abilty, but I don't like him next to Tronstad in midfield. He's very erratic and doesn't have the discipline to be a holding midfielder.  If Cantwell needs a break, I'd be tempted to play Baradji further forward and see if he can't cause a bit of chaos further up the field.
