But it will be one amazing task if Marti can achieve getting any decent signing.

Of course we need a striker who can score but Centre of midfield is also an issue for me.

Colback is either injured or suspended.

Field is only good defending. He can't find a forward pass.

Dozzell just continues to be too anonymous in games.

Dixon-Bonner looks ok but overall we need somebody more dynamic, somebody who covers more ground and who breaks into the box and contributes some goals.

It is noticeable how poor our passing has become in the second third since Jack Colback has been unavailable. I did think Dozzell would fill that role... Do you think Dixon-Bonner would become that player who surges through the middle and scores - if he had the confidence generated from regular starts instead of Dozzell? I would also add, in Dozzell's defence, that at least Dozzell is playing. Why is Taylor Richards still on the bench and not pushing for starts?

Here are three players linked in the media to us:

Tim Iroegbunam
According to The Sunday Mirror reporter Darren Witcoop on X, QPR are interested in bringing the Aston Villa midfielder back in January. The 20-year-old, who is a former England youth interantional, spent last season on loan with the Hoops and made 32 appearances in all competitions, chipping in with two goals. He returned to Villa Park at the end of the last campaign and has played twice for Unai Emery’s side this term. They have a decision to make on what to do with him next.

Rodrigo Muniz
The R’s are keen on landing the Fulham striker along with Bristol City, according to a report by TEAMtalk. However, Middlesbrough are not believed to be in the frame to land him despite him spending time on loan with them earlier this year under Michael Carrick. Muniz, 22, moved to Craven Cottage in 2021 from Flamengo and they were promoted to the Premier League in his first season in London. He isn’t guaranteed regular football with the Whites anymore though and an exit wouldn’t be a surprise.

CJ Hamilton
QPR have been linked with a swoop for the Blackpool winger along with fellow second tier outfit Huddersfield Town and League One promotion contenders Derby County in a report by Football Insider. Hamilton has recently been handed a new deal by the Tangerines running until 2026.

If we do manage to bring in a goalscorer then the big decision will be whether we should send Sinclair out on loan? I can't see him getting much game time if the club does bring in a more experienced forward so it would make sense to find him a club in either League 1 or 2.

If we are a club with a strategy then any transfer business will already have been agreed and completed by the time we play Bournemouth in the cup.

Our short comings are obvious to all the fans so let's hope that Marti has given Lee Hoos his short list and the CEO has got him the players we so desperately need.

Problem we have now is who is going to want to come here permanent because we are looking more likely to be a league one club next season than a championship one
Not a good career move for a lot of players
We maybe could loan a few from the premier league or foreign leagues that marti knows but that’s about it
Or is there some hidden gems in the lower leagues,be nice to have a get out of jail card and if we go down go with a proven striker at league one level

I cannot remember much about him other than his name daveb. Is he an old-fashioned striker or an all-rounder? If he is looking to start more matches and is any good - yes please!

Media reports again linking us to Rodrigo Muniz

QPR and Bristol City have inquired about Fulham striker Rodrigo Muniz

He was on loan at Boro previously if you perhaps remember him?

There is also speculation we are after another CB (?): Crewe Alexandria's Connor O'Riordan, who was meant to sign for Blackburn but negotiations have apparently stalled.

Blackburn don't want to pay the whole fee in one; they'd rather "thrash out a payment plan," according to The Sun's journalist, Nixon. He added that Crewe, on the other hand, want all £500,000 at once. footballleagueworld.co.uk/qpr-and-norwich-city-should-look-to-hijack-blackburn-deal-after-complication/

This from the media when Marti Cifuentes was asked about the January transfer window:

The QPR boss was then asked directly about the January window and if Nourry's arrival came at a time that would allow him to flex his power in completing deals. Cifuentes wasn't shy to admit that those conversations had already taken place. He said: "He does have a lot of expertise in that area. We already talked about how we can improve the situation where we are, knowing about Financial Fair Play."

So, Marti lays out his shopping list and Christian tells him we can only have those on a free transfer...?

He told Sky "I'm just the head coach" and to me had clearly be told don't build up anybody's hopes for signings!

Usually managers say "we will strengthen where we can" or "we are working hard behind the scenes" but he didn't even go there.
