I'd try and get Jack Byrne on loan for a year. He looks very promising.

After Man U have thrown another £100m on strikers we should ask to borrow Rashford for a season.  If he ends up as 4th choice striker it might be viewed that he will develop better from a season long loan.  Get promoted and he can stay for another season.  Too ambitious?

No, not too ambitious, I just don't think he'd get in ahead of Gabby.

Fixed.

Cyrus Christie, Derby right back?

Yeh bought him on FIFA 16, very quick, dives in a lot.


I'd never heard of him until Wednesday when a colleague was telling me about her friends nephew who plays for Derby. All I know about him is that he bought a house either for his aunty or his mum, I lost track.

has done well in his limited Ireland appearances to date, strong and quick

not the greatest footballer in the world mind but at 23 and from the general area (Coventry) wouldnt be the worst shout in the world

I see Olsson and MacAuley signed new deals at Albion but not news of Morrison yet? He is one I would take on a free if he was available this summer, would add something to our midfield when the inevitable departures happen.

I would also like to see us go and get Bamford on loan early in the summer. Proven in the Championship and I reckon would do well with Gestede in a 4-4-2.

We need to thoroughly use and abuse the loan system next season.

I agree with Bamford despite him not doing much at Norwich and palace. Would loathe to see 442 again though.

I cringe at the thought of getting cast-offs from the Bitters.
I'm intrigued to see how the likes of Donacien, Robinson, Gardner, Baker, Bennett and Steer look after extended loans. I'd like to see us bring in a couple of young up-and-coming players from our academy. I'd like to see one or two 26-27 years-old Championship stalwarts introduced (like Morgan from Leicester was; and Swnasea's Williams was).

Wait till you get arthritis in them.  It is like having two bunches of bananas sticking out of your sleeves.  I type with my nose.

You need to get a stylus thingy, makes things far easier and the only typos I get now are down to my own stupidity.

Morison would be a good signing and in an advanced midfield role would probably get a few goals as well.  If we could keep Gana, then adding Charlie Adam to those two would make a good midfield at that level.
