    We don't. I'll merge this to the main Rumours thread. My reasoning is that we'll just get the same thing written on 2 threads, or maybe that should be 5 or 6 different threads?

    Who’s moaning? No one on here from what I can see. If it’s elsewhere, I trust you’ve posted same there?

    Another CB option in Djiku - I’d say the strongest out of the 3 we’ve been linked with.

    No because I refuse to pay to post on SulkWeb

    I have referenced that I read both and only post here multiple times in the past. I usually add that comment - especially when no one here says it but I forgot this morning.

    Point remains - we have some absolutely maroons among our fanbase (it obviously gets worse as you descend into Twitter and I don’t even bother with Facebook)

    That’s the same with ANY fan base. I, me just don’t see the point of moaning about crap from other sites on here. Same goes to all but then this is a forum and the usual response is say what you want. You did, I did :emoticon-0148-yes:

    Fair. Most of the time it is something that has been said or suggested on here as well - just more often and more vocally on other sites. No one has brought up Carrillo on here. Not 100% sure that no one has implied negative things about this somehow being the fault of our new owners / approach. I don’t think so but couldn’t confidently say

    If true I wonder what all the talk about the loan of Bade was all about ? Other interest in him instead? Surely a permanent for DCC would be a similar fee to the rumoured buy option. So if it is actually needing to free up a loan slot then why not buy him? Seems odd that it seemed to be announced as agreed. Unless we get both which really doesn’t seem likely

    Rather confusing

    Only reasonable explanation is that we felt we didn’t have enough players with hyphenated names

    Think Caleta-Car is in the last year of his deal so could be cheap. I remember a few years ago he was all the statto football geeks wet dream player. Haven’t heard much of him since so not sure if his form has dropped off

    Latest I have seen is Bade has apparently picked Forest over us which is difficult to really understand. I guess with them playing a back three he is more likely to get game time than here

    Shame as he seemed tall, quick and strong which fit the defenders we need. No idea how quick Caleta Car is though. Edit : based on FM22 stats it doesn’t seem to be a defining part of his game

    Yeah I was going to say they are still playing a three that due to injuries still has championship players in it

    This is really the first deadline day where I genuinely don't have any sort of clue what's going on behind the scenes at Saints. Obviously they'll be getting the deals we know about over the line but Solak may want that marquee signing. It's really hard to know how the next 11 hours are going to pan out.

    The club are trying to maximise the shirt-naming cash flow, based on the number of letters required on the shirts

    Transfer Deadline Day Bingo.

    I go for (1st team squad)

    3 ins:- AMN / Edozie & Larios.

    3 outs:- Romeu / Stephens / Redmond.

    Think we’ll end up keeping Bednarek and Walcott

    Gakpo is a winger too. But as our wingers come inside and attack it’s not a problem. Our full backs actually become wingers in possession. So IMO we’re not badly off as it is. My only concern is that Che’s role this season is as a target man and it works very well. Not sure we have anyone else who can hold the ball up as effectively. So any injury or suspension to Che would probably see a change in formation with a front 2.
