    it's a superb move. He'll play week in, week out for a team on the front foot who play decent quality football.

    He either gets his confidence up and comes back ready to start next season or perhaps he doesn't show enough but can help Plymouth into the Championship and be an obvious signing for them. I'm hoping for the former but the latter is a good contingency.

    Plymouth would be a superb move for Matete. Hopefully that comes off. I like him me, hes raw and that but has potential. Hes done well a fair few times this season coming off the bench and making an impact.

    Would be an excellent signing for them if he can stay fit

    Never heard of him but I always tend to believe the random ones more than the obvious. Probably just as much bullshit tbh, like that Argentinian striker lad that ended up in MLS but there were Spanish news articles linking him with us when we were in League one.

    A bizarre link. He would fit the profile but it seems like a position where neither him nor Patto would be happy as back up. I would expect him to cost a sum greater than we'd be willing to pay, he was linked to Spurs last year.

    Oh and finally, I like that he's called Etienne Green and plays for St.Etienne who wear green!

    Big signing for Ipswich if that's done. They're serious about promotion this year.

    Personally I'd be keeping him. No point making ourselves weaker just to get him some game time

    Also makes a link like that West Ham midfielder on loan make more sense. We pick up a prem loan who can contribute now from the bench at least, Matete goes and gets some games and then comes back to push for first team. Worked to a point for Embo.

    I thought it was common knowledge, that we are after another CM this window.

    Brooke Norton Cuffy recalled from Rotherham by Arsenal and sent to Coventry simultaneously.

    taken Rotherham fans completely by surprise. Bit of a sickener when you’re struggling

    seems to be a lot more loan recalling than normal.

    true, but based on current squad I wouldn't be sending anyone out on loan. We're getting a lot of injuries and there is no reason why that won't continue

    True, but when Evans gets his usual injury, Neil is fatigued and we have to rely on Michut & Ba for crucial games we are going to regret not having backup on the bench

    Well, let's hope we bring someone in before we send anyone out. I hope any outgoing loans are done on deadline day
