"We're looking at certain areas of the field and we want to have two, three or four ways of playing so we have to make sure we're strong in terms of our squad.

"I think it was a Nigel Adkins saying to control the controllables and that's our state of mind at this present moment in time. We're trying to focus on making this group stronger."
