Have we missed Emil Hansson more than we realise since he got injured?

Lacked balance & genuine width in the side since. Cochrane now being tasked with being pushed further up to solve the problem. Clear issues down the right side also!

How would you address our weaknesses?
 
It's been a quiet window so far. I've a feeling all our business is not yet complete.
 
Not sure I can call Neumann a January signing. We have holes we need to fill and I think Grant Hanley is an astute bit of business due to the temporary contract.

For me we have lacked pace up front and especially on the flanks, Hansson has flattered to deceive a little and hasn't produced his best...as yet, hopefully he will when he is fully fit which maybe next season in the championship.

This team is still evolving and it's progress is being hampered by injuries...the loss of Iwata and Paik is a blow but the lads coming in are well drilled in the team framework and good results are still being achieved. Getting out of this league and building for next season is important currently we are on course to achieve that, so I believe that any actual or perceived weaknesses are of no real consequence at this time and may only be viewed as such because of expectation and ambition.......in my humble opinion.
 
I agree about us needing pace up front, but we are an impatient lot by nature, must remember that the team/squad are still a "Work in progress"
I am convinced that Chris Davies is very astute and knows what is required, he along with other members of staff will source the right persons to add to the squad
 
Nathan Redmond's name is re-surfacing on the transfer gossip.
What do people think???

Personally, it is a No from me as good as he was for us in his early years, I feel he is over the hill now. His place could be utilised with someone Younger/Quicker that we would get more than six to twelve months use.
