If they are all tied into relegation clauses then fair play, smart business. With great shame (as I can't say I particularly like either of these players) I would take Cattermole and Kone in a heartbeat as they're two positions we really need cover in and they are both capable Premiership standard players. Just a shame Cattermole has been injured and Kone is a massive ****.

Players like N'Dong and Watmore could make hay this season and if Gooch, Love, McNair, etc can raise their game then there's a core of prospects who could be transformed by the prolonged exposure to first team. There's ability there and the shame of the Premier league is that most youngsters don't get the chance.

All but Rodwell had the clause. He's on 60k too. You can have those both if it was up to me fella. Yeah we got some good kids. Enough u23 to fill a 3rd of the squad.

I've got a feeling that Rodwell will be gone this window.

I don't.Who'd match his wages? We could supplement wages but it's still a **** deal if we cover half. <laugh>
 
I've no idea. But the PL ain't the only game in town.

There's only china paying those sort of wages and with the new restrictions on overseas players I think they'd be more inclined to splash out on someone who'd make shirt sales rather than somebody the Chinese public probably has never heard of.

I know. Just grabbing at straws but I don't see Roswell playing for us in 6 to 8 weeks. No idea why.
 
I actually think Rodwell will have a good season and score a few goals this season.

Fitness pending

Having forced myself to watch a bit of the championship last year it was cringe worthy how much time defenders give people on the ball in and around the box.

With a few extra secinds to tee hinself up I think he'll rake a few in from the edge of the box where he'd usually lash them wide when being closed down by premier league defences

I know it worries me
Just how many goals we could conceive
 
I'll have him for 2m but not 4.5m what some prick said on Twitter.

We need forwards big time so haway Larry get it sorted.

Does anyone think mcgeady will reject us for Boro? Got a feeling he will.
 
The mags have just paid nearly 7m for Atsu. I saw a side by side comparison of his stars from last season, with McGeady. McGeady pissed all over him.

I think I'm in the minority of one, but I still see a player in Rodwell. For at least half of the times he played last season, he was comfortably one of our best players on the pitch. Keep him fit and I think he could really shine and kick start his career in the Championship.

The biggest issue of all.

One and a half mate. I can`t decide about that bloke. Times I think he shows class, other times I think he`s a waste of space.

There`s something there. It`ll be interesting to see what Grayson & co make of him. New players around him? who knows.

Make that a majority of two. With better players around him and a manager who appears to be a very good man manager, we may finally see the lad produce the goods on a regular basis, especially at championship level.
