Agreed mate, Thought GM said he would have all deals done before we were back in preseason. Just think we have left it late and still believe we are 1 light in central midfield and 1 fullback short. 1 or 2 injuries and we will be struggling in some places, as happened last year. More than happy with what we have, just wish we had a bit more cover.

Agree, but it looks like Monk is putting his faith with the kids ie Kingsley and Fulton for cover at LB and DM and might have a go at bringing in a couple in January. Keeping Bony for me is the priority today.

Absolutely, Bony has to stay. Talk Sport have said that Arsenal are no longer interested in him. That just leaves Tottenham now.

There is an un-sourced report quoting Bony's agent as saying that Bony is not going anywhere
 
Reports saying that Spurs are after that prolific goalscorer Welbeck.

On SSN news again apparently we are now interested in Scotty Sinclair.
 
Reports on sky from reporter at the Liberty, From Bony agent, he is going nowhere and will remain at the Liberty.

Apparently there was interest from Monaco and spurs but came to nothing.


Who is Chris Scott guys a 19yr old. Moved from Swansea to Leicester.
 
Stumpy A 19 year old I havent Heard of. Maybe with all the youngsters we have signed we had to let some go. They certainly havent been setting the world alight in the Under21 league so far.
