the point I tried to make was we will need every penny to invest in players we need

we could recall for a bit and reloan I guess
We should be recalling & sending him back out to a NL side to see whether he can cope with the step up.
Will give us an idea of whether he's worth persisting with for the final year of his deal.
Either bringing him back to be a key player in our relegation battle or leaving him at Worthing will be a failure for everybody concerned.

As a minimum bring back Aguiar for January and have a look at him in training and games. If he doesn't make an impact loan him to the NL at the end of the month.

Don’t think he is good enough. He had a purple patch when surrounded by quality, but looked well out of his depth when surrounded by shite. He’s now doing well 2 levels below us and Flynn had suggested several times that there isn’t an option to bring him back.

Really? My Skool of thought is if he wasn’t good enough in a thread bare squad in August is he going to be good enough in a bottom of the the table dogfight?

Fair but that’s all relative to what Worthing are contributing towards his wages.
Then could be covering 100% and thus I see your point but they could be covering 0 so it makes no financial difference if he’s here or there

But I bet they won't be.

As I said, Flynn has said that there wasn't an option to bring Aguilar back. All managers bend the truth to a degree, but maybe what he was really saying was that he felt that neither Aguilar nor Adeloye were good options for his team.

I thought he fairly recently backtracked on "can't" and basically said exactly what your second point was - he could but he needs to concentrate on what he needs to improve the team (concentrate on the spine)

But he doesn’t need to.  Clems here overseeing that.

Fuck me, can we put this one to bed now.

Clem is our owner (…or the elected face of the ownership group if you want…)
Therefore he is the man who controls the finances and would need to sign off / agree to / sanction any deal and he will also play a part with regards to what finances are available.
That’s the capacity in which he will over see the transfer window.

He hasn’t come here to pick players he wants to sign football manager style.

That’s a different matter - but both can be recalled now.

See, normally I'd agree, but I'd point to the presence of Charlie Austin in our squad against the wishes of (at least) our DoF at the time if not the manager as well. There's a track record here of Clem doing what Clem wants - I don't think he's going to be picking every player, but would he have a few in mind at the top end of what we're looking at?
