We are one striker short.
As an outsider Mo Eisa is the eye-catching one - a player we were heavily linked with (or at least many of us were desperate to sign) when he went to Posh; again, as an outsider, he looks like a very ECFC 'project' sort of player - but quite surprised it's only a deal 'til the end of the season. Hope he works out and you've got an option of some sort.Some good additions but on a very short term scale which is a concern. Still lacking a striker though.
I know and I don't mean to be awkward about it... Happy with the first two. Last four are all exciting but have question marks. The young Irish lad... Exciting, good YouTube video, but no idea. The Halifax winger/striker sounds very exciting business, but I've never seen him play. Eisa and Woods have real quality, but haven't shown it for a season or two, so hopefully we can get it out of them! If more than half do the business, I'm happy!Yeah, I meant in terms of initial perceptions - definitely not intending to hold anyone to account later on!
Eisa looks a fantastic addition. The worry (if you can call it a worry) is that he does well and we can't afford to sign him in the summer.As an outsider Mo Eisa is the eye-catching one - a player we were heavily linked with (or at least many of us were desperate to sign) when he went to Posh; again, as an outsider, he looks like a very ECFC 'project' sort of player - but quite surprised it's only a deal 'til the end of the season.

Alli looks intriguing as well, but I'm a sucker for an unknown signing.
You look stronger coming out of the window than going in though, I think?
Shown more intent this January than in any other under our current ownership, some activity borne out of necessity but things feel properly progressive whether we get promoted or not. I'll change my tune when Northampton thump us on Saturday ;-)I suspect you are a happy bunny
They are certainly not one of our favourite opponents !Shown more intent this January than in any other under our current ownership, some activity borne out of necessity but things feel properly progressive whether we get promoted or not.

Didn't think you or Devon Red were being awkward in the slightest - was just qualifying my questionI know and I don't mean to be awkward about it... Happy with the first two.

Spose the question must be can you afford your window? Seen Pompey drop again and again over the years through mismanagement. What about that time you managed to find the only skint Saudi?Shown more intent this January than in any other under our current ownership, some activity borne out of necessity but things feel properly progressive whether we get promoted or not.

I am happy, decent window in my view and considering what else has gone on in the window elsewhere I will give them 8/10.So, are you happy with your transfer business. Have Flitcroft and Caldwell delivered?
