    Could be anything with Mendy . We've bid £1m and they want £4m ? If there's been another offer. ? Might have been all add ons to get that centre ground of £2.5M. Nobody knows do they ? Think it's still ongoing but we've got the new lad having a medical so they say. All seems to tie in with the Mendy latest . We must be confident he'll pass that medical .

    Guessing here Isidor could buy his new contract out and we pay him ? Is that a possible way around it all ? Nice to have a few options up front Mayenda , Isidor , Mendy ? If it's not Mendy then there's always Ba to do a part time job.

    We must be very confident of signing Isidore if they have pulled out, if that’s true of course.

    Hemir is not in the plans and Rusyn just doesn't fit the system. Neither are viable options.

    Time for Jewi to prove his worth if he goes to Reading, I’m in the camp that I haven’t seen enough from him to justify keeping him if I’m being completely honest.

    make it or break it loan move for him I feel but very good opportunity for him down there.

    So who takes them on? They’re still contracted to us whether they’re in the plans or not.

    we won’t sign another forward, in addition to the lad from Russia unless 2 go out the door.

    I think it’s a ploy to break Caen

    I think it's either for Caen to lower the asking price for Mendy or for Mendy to hand in a transfer request

    fishpaste has a point here, if we had ended our interest the likes of Downie and co would’ve been briefed as per the medical saga.

    That's up to the club to find suitable destinations for them, but we can't not sign much needed players who fit what we are doing because we have players that don't fit here. We had 4 strikers at the start of last season in Rusyn, Hemir, Burstow and Mayenda and they all featured in the first team so we are not afraid to sign multiple players in that position.

    I would sign the lad, if IF he doesn't demand over what our pay structure is.

    Loved Michut, was disappointed we didn't sign him permanently but he wouldn't get in the team now

    Having said that, sell Ekwah and bring Michut on a free would be an immense piece of business

    I’m not disagreeing with the need for new strikers, I’m just pointing out that unless we move out players then I can’t see us getting another forward on top of the lad we’re currently after.

    There are 9 days left, things either way are starting to accelerate

    Michut wanted a more advanced role did he not when he was here. ? Might be able to persuade him to be part of the midfield ? Free is canny so hope we give it a shot.

    I doubt he'd want to join. It was as much his decision as ours not to pursue the permanent deal

    Im in the minority but im not a massive fan of Michut, disappeared in n out of games far too much for my liking. Doesn't offer the physicality or running power that we seem to now have in our CM

    No doubt hes technically good but he wants too much time on the ball so i reckon italian football would br perfect for him
