Neil Young hopes to make one  more loan signing before Saturday’s crucial match with  rock-bottom Hyde (Saturday, November 8 at 3pm).

The Blues currently have six loan  players on their books, despite the fact  they are only allowed to name  five in  their matchday squad.

But Young has targeted an attacking  left-sided midfielder from the Championship and aims to wrap up the deal  before the trip to Ewen Fields.

He admits that would leave him  facing a juggling act. However, Young  believes he still needs to add extra  quality to his squad and feels the  impact of Conor Wilkinson, who made  a goalscoring debut against Aldershot  on Saturday, and Chris Lester showed  the loan system is working.

“We are grateful to the clubs loaning  us the players because they have done  us favours aplenty and helped us  bring some quality in. I think people  have seen that with Chris and Conor  on Saturday,”  said the Chester boss.

“Conor has got so much ability and  he’s a talent. I watched him in training on the Thursday and some of the  things he was doing with the ball were  effortless. His movement was good,  he’s got quick feet, he’s deceptively  quick and he scored a fantastic goal.

“Chris Lester had a decent game and  he will get better. He gave us  something we haven’t had in terms of  pace out there and a threat.”

Young added: “The loan system has  served many others well and I'm sure  it will serve us well. We are looking  and there are a lot of good players out  there. The question is, can we get  them in at a price we can afford?”

Young said deciding which loan  players to name each week was not an  easy process.

He said: “It’s not simple and you  have got to try and get the team you  think can win the game on the pitch.

“We left Alex Titchener out last  week and we didn't want to, but you  have to look at the options you  have.”

One player who won’t be in the  squad for the trip to Hyde is new  signing Charlie Anderson, who has  already left the club due to work  commitments.

 Young said: “He got a massive job  opportunity which came out of the  blue and it meant him missing two out  of four Saturdays.

“He said it’s an opportunity job-wise  that he can't turn down.

“We all know how the economic  climate is and he’s got to take the  opportunity. If anything changes then  we will look at it again.”

Chester go to Hereford United next  Tuesday, November12 at 7.45pm.
