    Still 3 weeks to go, might not be ideal but quite calm that we are working on things in the background.

    3 weeks till the end of the window and fully expect a wow singing at centre half before the window slams shut

    Feels like Bournemouth doing to us what we did to Leeds!

    Still think we need two. Ballard was quite injury prone last year, and outside his immense play off games had some ordinary games. Then we’ll have LON, AA ans BDB in the group. Hopefully someone comes in who compliments him and he starts thr season well, his shirt to lose

    This is the only reason I’m a bit flapped.

    I absolutely trust the club but we could be 30% to survival through first ten games we need it done.

    It’s tough if we don’t get points from the start we’ve been blessed with.

    Worth noting with ‘injury prone’ players, playing a lot less games will help.

    I think we enquired about Diakite but didn’t follow up based on the price, a little like Petrovic.

    I’m still confident we’ll get in a CB before next week.

    I think Lucumi will get done. Just gut feeling but it's dragged on for a while now and we haven't really been linked to many CBs since the first report on him.

    TBF Bournemouth have the cash to splash and are desperate for CB ('s) now they've lost 2?!?! I can't keep up.

    I honestly thought they'd try for Beraldo as part of the Zabarnyi deal.

    I'm confident we'll get 1 in by next week.

    Cattermole turned up about 4 hours before the Bolton match and played. It's not ideal but we're buying established players for £25m +. They'll not need loads of time to bed in imo

    We have options depending on injuries. Seelt was injured last week, but we could possibly field a back 4 of Hume, ballard, mandava and huggins against West ham and it would cope

    Everyone took it as gospel that we wanted Diakite based on a tweet from that Fabrice Hawkins. He also linked us with Melvin Bard who has never been mentioned again. I think the only concrete centre half link out there is Lucumi.

    Why not? We all were panicking if we didnt go up ballard and Hume would be off, we are paying West Ham, Burnley and Brentford in the first 3 games.

    We would probably all take Bowen, but name the other West ham forward....., Burnley again name 1 forward that scares us, Brentford have Wissa for now but after that?
