    I'm relaxed. At least one will come off. And we do have Isidor as well should the worst happen.

    3m more than a season ago, didn’t do much and injured for most of it. He should be 3.5m rising to 5m. I wouldn’t want him at 10m, too risky after his back injury.

    He starts up top with our current squad, for me.

    He's fit, ready and has come here to play ...

    ... shame for Mayenda but I think RLB will play Isidor.

    I hope that’s the case. Expect him to lead the line on Saturday

    Depending on money we have available and how it would affect other business, i'd pay something like £7m rising to £10m. It's a premium position with not many suitable options on the market, plus unless he has a disaster here he has good resale value.

    I reckon Mayenda will still start on Saturday but Isidor will be on around 65 minutes.

    I'd do this as well but only if Simic isn't happening. I wouldn't be going paying this if Simic has / is choosing us.

    A big improvement needed from last weekend if that’s the case.

    I'd like an improved performance sure but don't think its necesarily needed. In a way his pressing is as important as what he does when he gets the ball.

    RLB doesn't look the type to be sympathetic tbh, every player will have to fight for a place.

    As said previously, the original fee will be nowhere near 3.7m.

    Yes I agree. Simic is still my preference as well.

    Be very keen to keep Mayenda there for his own benefit as well as the teams, his work has been vital. The rest will come with this side, if they turn up.

    Leicester were always sounding out other bids by releasing it to the press in the first place.

    I was going to like this, but Magnus has, and folk need to take notice of that I reckon...

    I don't think we're being used tbh.

    I'd guess we've made our intentions clear so that things are made to move quicker.

    Any other buyer now knows we've made a bid so they can't sit back.

    I would be worried as a Burnley fan, easy (or so they said) promotion. Ditch the lads who got promotion then get relegated and the exodus begins of the mercenaries.

    Looking from the outside they are now recruiting to get up with championship level players and starts the cycle again, nothing I see is investment in youngsters and talent. Owners seem to be the American Donald and Methane level with a little more cash to splash.
