    He’s hardly the player we need mate. He’s not even that highly rated in an absolute **** of a league.

    I’ve got this feeling we will have signed nobody by the time we play Watford. I just don’t think the club has sorted its feet out.

    I disagree I think he was highly rated, but a move didn't work out and his stock fell.

    We've seen what can happen with players in the wrong team with the wrong manager.

    He has ability can he do it in the Prem... Nice littie gamble imo

    Time for gambles is gone bud. We need instant hits. We should have signed Botman, Trippier, Digne already with a CM (Veretout/Gink) and CF (Isak/Vlahovic) a high priority.

    I have a feeling Gayle is going to be difficult to shift before his contract runs out. He doesn't seem that bothered by limited playing time compared to getting good wages. We could always offer to pay his wages though I suppose.

    He can at least stay fit though, and considering Norwich, Watford and Burnley are basically championship teams, he should be able to school against team at least.

    Again I'm going to disagree because we can sign as a bit of everything and it's not all about the next few months..

    I don't even care if we go down because they'll have covered all angles by Feb

    We should be terminating the contracts of Gayle, Hendrick, Dummett and Gillespie. Probably more. It's why I'm twitchy and always have this worried feeling that we're just not as rich as is being made out, why wouldn't you just ship these wastrels out?

    There's only 28 days available, minus matchdays, and we're three days in with no signing. Our "imminent" signing is playing for his club today - that doesn't happen if the transfer is imminent! Lille play Lorient on Saturday - I'd bet good money Botman turns up there an'all.

    I mean it's only youtube and not a top league but if anyone's going to tell me he hasn't got ability then they're wasting their time.

    Get everyone you can that will improve the 25

    He's a Brazilian International ffs. It's not quite the same conversation as bringing in some kid from the championship. Also when he played at Milan he was oftern used as a right winger.

    That's a worse showreel than Solanke.

    Already? I day and 16 and a half hours in to the Transfer Window with it being a Saturday and a Sunday.

    Can you just wait until the Watford game before panicking?

    I'm twitchy, mate. Everton signed a left back on the 1st Jan.

    And, no, I'll be panicking way before Watford if we've not signed anyone. Watford is halfway through the month. I expect we'll all be panicked if we're still player-less by then.
