Moses is definitely out, McGregor and Bruce are out for 4-6 months (McGregor isn't expected back until January and assuming we sign another keeper, is unlikely to be named) and the U21's don't need to be included.

Personally, I don't believe that our final 25 man squad will include 20 players already at the club.

You lot do, which is fair enough, we'll find out by the end of month.
Not so. I was pointing out the Burnsie said we needed 11. But he also said we were relegation fodder this time last year so guess he is just s stirring
 
City have said there was interest from elsewhere, either it didn't come to anything, or Diame preferred Newcastle.

Yeah I know, but interest is different to meeting the (low) release clause. If it had been met I'm sure we'd have heard and I'd expect he'd prefer every single premier league club over the Jawdies save for the 3 promoted ones.
 
Just been am interesting convo an H&J on TalkSport with agent Paul Smith about triggering release clauses. He suggested that any club would put an excessively high trigger point on players they were eager to keep, though there attitude to staying might be dictated by the amount the player has written into the contract. He did say at the start of the interview that there were tow recent ones that were ridiculous (or similar words) that had been completed.

Niasse might have been excellent if Mo had been here... same nationality etc.. same with the Sane brothers... but I think that ship has sailed or sunk in Picky park pond.
 
I must say i dont know anything about Niasse but i would have Mcgeady all day long, even if we didn't have the issues with the manager/ owners/ squad.

Mcgeady didn't exactly set the world alight at Everton or Wednesday on loan. Niasse was a flop at Everton, but then he had Lukaku to contend with.
 
197 pages nearly 4000 comments.... not one signing... I know its just football, but its our club and whether you go or not what is happening is heartbreaking. I'm numb from it all.
