This season is dead and buried. Far better to play the younger players from now until May, there won't be a better time-not struggling against relegation, not challenging for promotion (with the best will in the world, we ain't going to storm up there and better the likes of Leeds, Palace, Preston, even Watford) so the only pressure will come from certain sections of the ground whose fans expect them to be the new Zidane the moment they set foot on the pitch.
Sure, if we get some targets in now, it would save the threat of missing out on them if we wait until the Summer, but I see no reason why we can't keep the powder dry until May/June, and then, providing Worthington doesn't wander off on holiday, look to add to the squad prior to pre-season.
