    Second PL loan slot would be used and West Ham, so no JWP return on loan.

    Cornet, Ramsdale and a central striker would be a decent end to the window

    Don’t see Cornet as any better than our existing wide players tbh

    I remember liking him when he was at Burnley, doesn’t seem to have done much at West Ham though.

    Another experienced option, but yeah not overly bothered by his signing on paper

    Not better than Edozie? He's miles better, if he can find the form he had for Burnley.

    He was quality at Burnley. He's still only 27 so it's not far fetched that he could rediscover that form.

    I'm happy if we're getting the Burnley Cornet. Not so happy if we're getting the West Ham Cornet.

    I really rate him.

    If he can stay fit this could be very good

    For what it’s worth; he was a Sullivan signing at West Ham. Moyes never wanted him so he was never getting a fair crack. This happened a fair bit at West Ham in recent years

    As someone else has said, if it’s the Burnley Cornet then great

    How many players that go to WHU excel there! It's a club that makes average players from good ones

    Plays both wings or at left back. Should mean Manning leaves before the deadline now

    Dyche also played him up front at times at Burnley, for what it’s worth

    If we can get a fee for Manning that would be great.

    A central striker tomorrow and can’t really complain about the window

    Decent goal record for a winger, that bit of pace we need.
    I assume he’s not that great, but then West Ham do have Kudus & Bowen, so it’s not a surprise he doesn’t make their team.

    He’s genuinely really good. Dunno why people are negative on this one.

    Better than Fraser imo and he did well for us

    Cornet and Fraser before the deadline is a big step up on Edozie being the first wide player off the bench atm
