‘Not enough’ – Many Sheffield Wednesday fans react to Tony Pulis’ comments on transfers
Sheffield Wednesday boss Tony Pulis wants to make at least four new signings in the January transfer window.
Pulis is still searching for his first victory at Owls manager since replacing Garry Monk in the Hillsborough dugout last month – taking just three points from his opening eight league matches.
Following their defeat at Nottingham Forest in midweek, Pulis’ men face another massive game with Coventry City at Hillsborough on Saturday, knowing that another loss could mean Wednesday spend Christmas bottom of the Championship.
And Yorkshire Live has revealed that Pulis is hoping to bring in a new left-back, centre midfielder, winger and striker in a desperate bid to help Wednesday avoid being relegated to League One.
Quiz: Did these 25 players make more or less than 100 Sheffield Wednesday appearances?
Wednesday made no less than nine summer signings, but the the majority have been unable to have the desired impact – with one of their notable incomings, Jack Marriott, making just seven appearances before returning to Derby following a calf problem.
Pulis will be hoping his January signings fare better, and here, we’ve been looking at how some Owls supporters have been reacting to his transfer plans on Twitter.

That will be fun with a transfer embargo.

1 striker though? We need 2 at least!

Dom. Has he specifically told YOU 4…really? We would all be more interested in what he told Chansiri yesterday to be honest.

The squads disjointed.
We’ve 6 centre backs.
Another 4 will make it a secure starting 11 if Westwood can get himself fit.— Cycling Engineer (@mattstocks71) December 18, 2020
Lets hope they are set up for 1st of Jan, but to be fair, I'd toss it off too if i hadn't been paid. Think most people would. Think paying players is more important.

Bottom of the league and not paying players I bet they are queuing up

Only one striker ?
That won’t be enough when he gets injured after two games just like all the other players we sign !— Dave Warburton (@dwarbs) December 18, 2020

He needs 2-3 strikers and to clear the others out
