I just hope it's not a pie in the sky target the club can fall back on and say we just couldn't make it happen. We must have pulled out of the Simic deal if he's signing for Cardiff and going straight out on loan.
Well it’s ‘throw the kitchen sink at a striker time’. Orban would be impressive, even on loan. Get it done.
Well, a lot of work to do today but if we get it right then we could end up with a very competitive side. Even with isidor coming in I think we need another striker, 2 midfielders (likely AA and Ekwah leaving) a CB and with pembele going a full back. so 5 additions today, that’s a lot and obviously worrries about the striker situation with targets seemingly falling by the way side. hope they make it happen today
To reason with the weirdness of the Gift Orban link, I reckon we've looked at players we can buy and now we are probably looking at the best players we can loan (with hopefully a clause to buy). Just my take, but I imagine it's true. It'll still not appease those who want us to spend the Clarke money right away, I'd get that frustration, but it'd be a shrewd move IMO. Plus, the money could he spent on a left winger...
On defence, I'm comfortable with centre back, I think Johnson, Triantis and Hjelde will have to do for now, a back up full back would be my priority given the importance of our fullbacks in this team.
Well I woke up in a right mood at 04:00 this morning and this has been me on Twitter at the doomers and KLD out’s
Lots to get done, just hope some of it is already done but not announced. This is as far as I can work out where we have potential ins and outs. IN Aleksic - Radnicki Samed- Lens Orban- Lyon OUT Pembele - Le Havre Ekwah - St Etienne Benette - Reading AA ? Ba ? Hemir ? Anderson ?
if true and we pull it off, I would assume if it’s a loan considering they spent a fortune on him a year ago. Don’t think they’d allow him to go without us paying a wedge if his wages, which would take up a chunk of the money we made from Clarke/Ekwah. some won’t think that deep into it like.
