It’d be unbelievable if we could get them, then if we got some guy I’ve never heard of too, from some random club before Saturday, I could go on about how great a signing it is!
van Hecke would be coming in as a starter if it was him. Don’t see how’d we sign someone like him on loan to be backup to our current centre-halves.
The defender coming in has been described as a highly rated international so I doubt he'll be coming in as back up. I hope it's a RB
Cody Drameh from Leeds if we’re assuming it is a right back? England U21 international, spent last season on loan at Cardiff. Won a few of their player of the season awards too.
I immediately thought of Patterson. The international bit rules out a lot of people. I'd love the no.10 to be Dembele, I don't think it will be but he was mainly a bench player last year for Bournemouth and he's not an out and out no.10 but I can't think of many other options.
Leeds have signed Kristensen for that spot and still got Ayling and Koch who can play that spot too. He did play at wing back for Cardiff too so suits our system.
It gave the impression that it's a full international though. I thought anything but English after reading it
The potential of a Patterson loan has been refuted by the Everton side quite a bit and Alan Nixon seems to have made it up. If it’s a full international in the premier league there can’t be many who would go out on loan.
It's pretty tough to guess as we don't know who's available and who isn't. I don't think they'll be an Ehab type of signing, I think they'll be 2 players that will come through the door with the ability to make an immediate impact The no.10 is probably the most important bit of business we'll do between now and the end of the window, it has to be right. We've got the strikers, but we need to make sure they're supplied
