Liverpool being after Neil and Everton being after Roberts are nonsense in my opinion. No logical sense behind either deal.

So far we're looking at the following:

Gooch out, possibly a french kid in.

Aouichiche replacing Pritchard going out. Can play 10 or on the left.

Crespo/Buckley/Michut all being the DM options.

Rak-Sakyi in on loan to replace Roberts going out.

Stewart out and Rusyn coming in.

Have I missed anything?

We will still be a striker short so either we need another loan or to spend some money, but it looks like Cannon is on his way to Leicester. That means that West Ham can get Iheanacho and maybe Mubama is available for loan?

It feels like we're not linked with many strikers which is worrying. The rest I'm ok with to be honest, but we have to get all the deals done.

If all this happens we've had a great window, imo. Even without another striker in.

Pembele is better than Gooch.

Crespo is a very decent option at DM.

Aouichiche a slight downgrade from Pritch in the short-term but absolutely has the potential to be the better player. We have plenty cover in that position anyway so don't need an immediate starter. Overall, an improvement, imo.

Rak-Sakyi, I've been banging the drum about this lad all summer. He's just as good as Roberts imo, and will only get better. It's an upgrade for me, but maybe I'm biased. At worst a side-grade, imo.

Stewart for Rusyn, admittedly this one is probably a downgrade (though I know nowt about Rusyn). However we have also signed Hemir and Mayenda. Between the three, it's decent enough cover imo. They're mostly young as well so should improve as the season goes on.

No idea why the doom-mongers are out in force on Twitter, etc. Let's see how today pans out.

Any ideas if we’re after another striker? Looking at that RR list only really Rusyn listed and we could do with another with Ross leaving.

I agree with all this apart from the striker department. We need a specialist number 9 to replace Stewart. Rusyn seems to be more of a Broadhead type and Hemir can’t be relied upon yet. Mayenda is younger still, and a total unknown entity.
