I am starting to fear it is a scatter gun approach, players from lower league football who are willing to sign on the cheap hoping some work. We failed with Cooper due to wages and Cellino had to eat humble pie and go back for him. We failed with Agard due to wages yet he joins League 1 Bristol City, we failed with Sorenson due to a greedy agent and Viviani due to? (wages??) I wouldn't be surprised to see Adryan failing to join, greedy agent or wage demands.

I guess it is Cellino's way, he owns the club, he knows what he wants to pay and we just have to hope that who he brings in can do the business.

The only reason we have Hockaday is he is cheap.

I think calling it Scatter Gun is giving it too much credit TBH
 
Seriously?! Sloth, Powell, and Adryan

That would give us:

Austin, Murphy, Bianchi, Mowatt, Benedicic, Tonge, Norris, Cook, Thompson, Dawson, Sloth, Powell, Adryan as recognised midfielders without including the likes of Ajose / Doukara as wide options.

Still, updating the OP with them now <ok>
 
I just saw we paid 2m euros (or 1.6m) for Bellusci. I'm expecting bigger things from him since seeing that fee
 
This Montenegro sounds like he could either be another Alexis Sanchez or a Ramon Nunez, let's hope it's the former
 
Been linked with Cagliari defender Dario Del Fabro

He spent last season on loan with Pescara

Maybe we can try and get em to add another zero onto that
 
And here we go again!

Pavoletti was at the Wigan game on Boxing Day with an apparent loan already agreed for the rest of the season.

Other sources have linked us with:

1) Rene Khrin - Inter Milan and Slovenia defensive midfielder. http://www.tribalfootball.com/articles/leeds-open-inter-milan-talks-rene-krhin-4055653

2) Luca Marrone Juventus and Italian U21 defensive midfielder - Ema Guilanelli

3) Raphael Martinho - Brazilian left sided player for Catania. http://www.insidefutbol.com/2014/12...brazilian-midfielder-raphael-martinho/179930/

Supposedly there's a French guy from Leicester as well Anthony Knockaert
 
There are reports coming out of Italy that Leeds United and Cardiff City have joined the race to sign Empoli goalkeeper Davide Bassi. The player looks to be leaving the club and the two Championship sides are both showing a keen interest in him.

Another report linking us with Francesco Bardi another keeper, all rumours but if true surely not a position we are looking at for a loan purpose unless they are set to play, I mean we're not looking for another reserve keeper are we??
