    Bit of jet lag from the last one is it?

    The silence is ****ing deafening on transfers!

    The last three pages have been a particularly irritating waste of time. No offence.

    Patience, we're progressing. It's just hard to make ends meet when insisting on prior PL experience and good, honest character. Still, we'll soon see some incomings: Trafford for (yet another) GK, Adam Webster for CB, Gnonto for RW, Calvert-Lewin striker. Quality reinforcements in every position.

    The silence is deafening but in a good way - no one knew about the 2 senior appointments, they just arrived and were announced. Have a feeling there will be a transfer that plays out along similar lines. If its a protracted, drawn out process in the press it probably won't happen.

    We need to wait and see Roland, but much like last summer I have a feeling you'll end up right once again.

    If we sign Trafford then that’s just a little strange given we have already signed two goalkeepers. Dubz is still here.

    So we would technically have 5 GK?

    I know. So what’s the point in the others?

    Crazy.

    There doesn’t seem to be an awful lot of transfer activity across the board in the PL.

    I'm kind of with Roland on this one. If we were to spend the best part of £100m on those 4 I'd have to question where we're headed. They are mid-table fodder, maybe Europa CL, all good but not great and only Gnonto has potential to improve our outfield team. I just want a RW and a CB and I'm happy, I'd prefer to spend £30-40m each for better quality than skimp in a few £15-20m players we'll be complaining about for years.

    Gnonto? Sheesh! We’re scraping the bottom of the barrel. Does he actually improve our team - big reservations about him.
    Webster? Not even as good as 4th choice Burn.
    Trafford? Long term prospect so may as well just class him as an academy player
    Calvert-Lewin could be ok. With the above 3? I wept.
