    I am a bit annoyed we haven't signed a new keeper permanently. That just stinks. We should have taken a punt on the young Southend lad who has a real chance at becoming an England international in a few years, especially if he plays for a Prem side. If we get promoted, we could've been the team which produced England's next goalkeeper. Ah well, we'll sign some ****ty/bang average Premier League reserve keeper on loan like we did with Amos, Gulacsi and Stockdale and so continues the vicious cycle at Hull City of having an exposed weakness between the sticks.

    We could have saved 1.7 million at a stroke by getting him back

    I think it's pretty obvious that we don't have the money. Diomande is cheap by english football standards. Big money quite obviously wasn't there otherwise it would've been spent

    We'll just have to hope that Bruce doesn't reconcile himself to making Huddlestone first choice again like he did last season. I hope this striker is real competition for Hernandez.

    Come on fellas.. give this guy a chance. Just because he's scored goals in the Norwegian league some of you assume he wont be good enough at championship level. Thats like saying Austin in the lower leagues would never do a job at championship level.

    If his movement is good and he can finish, he'll be fine.

    So might this lad, and more. It's hard to judge a player by YouTube but finishing is a skill. The goal is the same size in every professional league and if you know where it is, you'll score when given chances. Proschwitz was actually a pretty decent finisher but he only ever got into positions of scoring on rare occasions. This lad looks more mobile than Prozzy and may make more chances for himself.

    Major positive that we have kept hold (touch wood) of the players we needed to. The Diomande signing isn't a blow your socks off signing but, from the clips, he looks to have a good finish in him and deserves the chance to show what he can do. Disappointing that we haven't strengthened our weaknesses in the goalkeeping position. Any chance of something happening in the loan window, even if it is not as ideal as a permanent signing?

    I think he's probably seen the light now, with Diame back we should see Huddlestone benched fingers crossed more often than not as that's where he should be on form and application

    West Brom fans say that Pullis only wants tall central defenders so it means that he can only get a game at full back

    Yeah not quite sure where your coming from
    I think Hernandez will hit 15+ and we ll just wait and see what this new chap does.
    Add in Akpom' Luer and Maloney and we look good for a yop 6 finish.
    Happy with window as it stands
