2 Strikers
Matty Philips upgrade or at least as good without the injury proneness.
Goalkeeper or 2
A few more stepping from the academy wouldn’t go amiss.
Also our youngsters ie Nathan/Kyle and the ones out on loan would need to keep up their development and make the step up
Dowling has unearthed the next Phillips IMO. Chris Willock. Everyone will be eulogising about him by end of the season

Can't stand the PL. So up or down dont much bother me.
So long as the football is good. That's what matters.
Of course I'd be very happy to see the Baggies promoted.. but I much prefer footy in the Championship. It's proper football. Like it used to be in the first division.

We'd be cannon fodder in the Prem at the moment.
We would need to strengthen significantly defensively.
Goalkeeper
Centre-back.
Midfield? Replacement for Livermore? Could Sawyers hack it?
Two strikers. None of the current bunch are good enough.
We have to bear in mind Grady isn't ours either and he's a key player.
So in my view we would need to sign at least 5/6 prem quality players to have any chance of staying up.
