    Like to think some links will start to appear today/tomorrow I’m not buying the Norwegian lad link only come from a couple of Bristol fans we don’t know who were after so I doubt they do, I’m calm about our business but it is abit boring waiting for news wish there was a game Saturday to focus on Monday feels like ages away

    Yet they've spent an absolute fortune under Edu and Arteta.

    One of the reasons I'm in no hurry to get back to the Prem.

    Still that goon from Arsenal TV.

    Some of the interviews they do post match sum up the modern day fan.

    Yeah the longer it goes on without any more concrete links i'll start to worry like. I really do think the club see this as a chance to go up and it would be a shame for some of the ambitious moves we have seen not end in any coming in. Even if it's just a striker who's more of a proper backup to Isidor rather than coming in to play the next game. Likes of Frigan, Riis, this norweigan lad etc. We just really do need that depth, especially now Rusyn and Connolly have left too.

    Would be so sunderland for nobody to come in and then isidor gets an injury <laugh>, I'd be very worried to see the pressure fall onto Mayenda

    You've got to think most of it is manufactured persona's and caricatures of fans just to get views. Same as that Mark Goldbridge, watches a delayed stream so he can prepare reactions and set up viral moments.

    That clip is always used when a club isn't signing anyone, probably find some of our fans using it ont twitter the past couple days I'd guess haha

    First team squad for the season of 25 players (with two long term injuries). No desperate needs to fill specific positions this time round. A manager who doesn't really rotate and doesn't use subs. Not adding up to a 'need' to sign players tbh. Personally I kinda hope we sign nobody, just for the devilment. There is no signing we can make that will guarantee anything. And if we do manage to get up this season, it might make people question whether their need for transfers is more of an addiction than anything else. January remains a **** month to do business and is never much more than adjustment. We've already achieved that. Looking lustily at Sheffield United going out and signing 6-7 champ journeymen isn't something I'll be doing any time soon tbh.

    Don't agree at all like, we 'need' better depth upfront and on the right if we want to push on and go up. Isidor gets injured you're left with Mayenda who for all has been good, has proved time and time again his composure is quite bad infront of goal, relying on him for a promotion race isn't right and isn't really fair to him tbh. Roberts has Poveda for competition who hasn't managed to stay fit to play a part yet. The goal is promotion, I know some would rather stay down or take our time but at the end of the day it was KLD's 5 year plan and goal to go up too, that's the club's goal so i'd like to achieve it myself.

    Not asking to sign champ journeyman, I'm asking us to sign someone who fits the model for some decent depth

    Most of our transfers happen out of the blue with very little info till the deal is nearly complete. We have all said we run a very tight ship these days so no need to worry. I'm sure something will break in the press soon enough

    No signing ever guarantees anything, does that mean we should just never sig anyone?

    I do agree, we usually always get something before it's done though or when it's close haha. I don't think for one second we aren't trying though, just hope we get one or two over the line

    I’m relaxed. Maybe coming off twitter has done that.

    We’ll get the one forward player we need on deadline day.
