are really, really important.
You need a striker, you need a central defender, you need a wide player.
He was asked about the transfer window in the next three and a half weeks.

But the buck stops with the manager and he makes that clear.
He'll make the decisions.
Andy, we knew it was Wolfsburg were mentioned here.
Mark Woody said it months ago.
What about Maeda then?
He's got a big part to play if he stays.
They need him back on top form.
He needs to get his focus back.
And by all accounts, he thought he was out the door and he was moving away and his family were tuned in to another move and it didn't happen.
And I think that's hurt him.

So he needs to get his focus back on track.
He needs to get his focus for the new manager, Martin O'Neill.
He needs to get, I think, the focus for himself.
It's a big year.
