He didn't seem to impress Pulis enough to get an extended run, but then that genius bought Chester and played him as a fullback for most of the season so I've no idea.

If we could nab Loftus-Cheek on loan that'd be good business, I don't think Conte would be interested in him as a first team player.

Jese Rodriguez is available at Real Madrid for around £8m and Munir El Hadaddi is available at Barcelona for £14m. Both talented young players who would make a difference in this league for us. Stoke had the right idea by buying Bojan Krkic, no reason we shouldn't be doing the same instead of muddling through with average players.

What about Locadia CF?
 
Mason would be a cracking additional to our midfielder, diamond 4-4-2 with hidden (dm), livermore and mason in middle, diame as am.

Would also off Huddersfield dropping to Cb for 3-5-2, during matches as others have suggested.
 
I'd rather have McGuire, dawson and Davies at CB in a three than huddlestone he's just not good enough, he massively struggled in the championship last year, I'm really not getting the mentality that we NEED to find a spot for him, let's just upgrade and use him as a backup player in case Injurys hit.

It's this mentality that players like huddlestone who rarely perform are good enough that's keep us as a yo yo club
 
People are talking like Mason's a done deal, based on nothing but an article in The Sun. We might well be sold this week, so we're unlikely to be bidding for anyone at the moment.
 
With Batshuayi joining Chelsea today I wonder if Remy will be available. Or perhaps more realistically for a club like ours, Bertrand Traore on loan for the season.

Do we have that sort of relationship with Chelsea... ?... or any other club for that matter. I feel we may have burnt bridges with Arsenal but we haven't had loans from any other of the main teams that I can recall, unless you consider Livermore in that bracket. We did when Pearson was here with the lads form manchester United, Brady, Chester...

Bruce is pretty well respected and he has a good relationship with United. Bang down a hefty loan deal for Januzaj. Now that would be a quality addition.

Locadia would be very good, but I don't know if he's just one of those made up links. There'll be a few clubs looking at him I'd have thought.
What sort of price is he? My mate seems pretty certain we're in for him.
If we're looking at 10 million for the Spurs player when we're desperate for a forward...

I suppose it depends on how much we have to spend, Bruce said he has a budget so I guess it depends on what that is. I'd say £8m would probably nab him, Erdevise players don't tend to go for that much.
 
What would he bring to the team? I like the fact there's a YouTube vid of him. Must mean he's decent?

He's an excellent crosser of the ball and a decent finisher to boot. He's got a good work rate but a tendency to strop a little if things aren't going his way. He'd be a good addition to a Premier League team, but he strikes me as the kind of player who would use us as a stepping stone to a bigger club. Which I wouldn't mind at all if he smashed it for us.
