I'd expect two signings confirmed tomorrow judging by Xia's tweets and Wyness hinting at deals. Probably Jedinak and Bamford. Another midfielder and RB would complete a good window.

Would Jedinack take Westwood's place in the team? If that's the case I'm all for him.

Jedinak seems to be a very popular choice to further improve the squad.

If we got Jedinak and this lad from Bologna, plus a right back and Bamford we will have done incredible work this window.

Sorry if I've missed it - who's the Bologna player?

Either...

These players we are going after and seemingly getting at will are seriously buying into the vision or

We are offering some serious wedge to get them

If its more of the latter then its on the verge of being a bloody dangerous gamble on getting up first time ... can’t see either Jedinak or Elphick or McCormack commanding much of a resale fee but then again if they get the club back into the premier league who cares as there fees and wages will have been justified and written back anyway !

Seeing on Twitter that a €17m fee has been agreed?

Crazy to be spending a £42m on a player in the 2nd Division. #bantz

I can't see Bamford being this new #9 Dr Xia was on about. He's hardly an exciting signing to warrant such an iconic shirt

obligatory youtube clip:




link for people with a black box -


big, strong, good positioning and seems to have the brains to wait for a poor touch and nip the ball away rather than thundering though people.  Him and tish would go well together long term I think and should let us play with 3 more attacking players behind a striker.
