..... a deal is imminent by way of us activating a release clause. I think I have it right...
Thank Julie!

I think a player like Kiyotake is on Lambert's wish list though.  The tentative interest in him, the move for Dempsey last summer and trying to fit N'Zogbia in last season would all suggest this.

I think he will stick now, having said that Helenius and Weiman cān play the number 10 role, though having said that, Benteke came in late last year. If we do have a mare with the opening three matches i can see a deadline day deal or two.

Possibly. But the Benteke deal had actually dragged on a few weeks because Genk we're playing silly sods so it wasn't really a last minute thought.

I think we will have another busy deadline day both incoming's and outgoings.
Ireland, Bannan, Bent will leave but jst feel it will be last minute.
One signing coming in same day too. Just a gut feeling

It makes some sense for any buying club to sign Bent/Hutton/Given late in the window. Their wages are such that every week of not paying them will help financially, not to mention it'll make Vilka more desperate to sell.

Equally the players have little motivation to leave as once completed they'll be on reduced wages.

Palace being heavily linked with Bent. I reckon with the season starting someone will take a punt on him this week.

Ireland and Given we need to just shift.

Attacking midfielder, about nineteen or twenty, who they reckon will turn out to be better than Zaha.

My palace supporting mate rates him pretty highly and when I watched them in the playoffs he did look pretty handy.  He did seem to be the first sub whenever Golloway wanted to change it, though.

if we rate him enough we should offer bannan, plus nathan and maybe 2 millions for him to Palace after completing deal for bent then we only got to get rid of Given, ireland and N'Zog.

The price for Bent should be Ģ6m, or Ģ4m if you take Ireland as well.
