    Maybe Cork is being smart, forcing a move by playing poorly!

    Yep. Medical tomorrow morning and an option to buy at a pre-agreed price of £7m.

    Cool. I'm not exactly hyped but seems like a good deal.

    Looks like a decent prospect and if he gives his all in the stripes then I will be a happy chappy. Welcome Saphir !

    I'm happy about this one. Not ecstatic, as Dan has said, but I don't think it's a bad signing either.

    Welcome Saphir. :)

    Schelotto still not mentioned by Di Marzio. Would feel sorry for the guy after he started to follow us on twitter, perhaps he found out how good our media department are.

    It seems an ok deal for us. Would have preferred the permanent signing of a player in a position we badly need. Nevertheless, it is, at least, another addition.

    Could this see Reed on loan somewhere or possibly Cork out the door?

    So our CM looks like: Schneiderlin, Wanyama, Cork, Davis, Reed, Ward-Prowse, and Taider. Now have 5 replacements in that position.

    Davis > JWP

    We'll be playing three in midfield, so any three from those seven, plus you could add Ramirez potentially.

    With Morgans future volatile it's not totally crazy. We get to see a potential replacement at close hand

    I think Reed could do with a loan out. I know he's highly rated but I'd think it'll be Morgan, Vic and JWP starting with Taider, Cork and Davis as primary backups.

    Decent-to-good chance that Davis and/or JWP will see some time on the wing, so there might be some (though not much) time available at CM for Reed.

    Loans with options to buy are win/wins. Otherwise, loans are just training for someone else's player.
