    OK OK... I wasn't born when the show came out. I used to watch the show on BBC 2 when I was a kid in the 90s

    Yeah, I was at that one. Terrific comeback, late 90’s if I remember correctly, George Graham was manager.

    Kamari
    On way to do medical now. Rangers being dumped out of cl qualifiers last night means they’re in need of money now

    A bit underwhelmed by Kamara if I'm honest.

    No idea who Gruev is but Werder Bremen are petty poor and he's not starting for them.

    Looks like Gray and Ampadu will be the go to pair in midfield.

    Gruev looks to have a cultured left foot with a decent range of passing and plays in the style of Archie Gray, doesn't look pacy but overall he should be a solid if unspectacular additon.

    Kamara I've never seen but it would seem he's more of a holding player who can link and break up play.

    Clearly we need players and at this stage we'll just have to hope they are the right ones but at least we've got the recruitment done. Now the task is to rebuff all offers for out top talents so just turn the phones off and disappear for the next 36 hours.

    Overall if this is our window then I'm happy.

    if Farke wants these players then i am happy as he has taken charge well.i think these if it happens will be the last two mids.cannot see us signing a left back or left centre back.

    Have noticed that Struijk has been getting a lot of praise for his recent performances and many think not only will he be a big player for us this season but also that he's a possible Captain should Ayling lose out to Spence.

    I've said it before and I'll say it again...judge our players on the here and now and not what happened last season playing at both a higher level and with the disruption of multiple coaches.

    Regarding the transfers, we’d have all been happy to ship Shackleton out for 1m prior to Farke arriving, Ampadu relegated twice, would we have picked him to join? I’m happy to go with who he wishes to bring in

    Interesting news coming out of Rome that we're in talks with Roma for Ola Solbakken for £4 million.

    He's a right Winger/second striker..

    This makes me think Gnonto is on his way out.

    Joseph Paintsil is no longer available.

    The Genk Chairman has said the only key departure this window will be Mike Trésor Ndayishimiye, who is off to Turf Moor.
