Looks like the lad from Hill is going to happen.

It's been an uphill struggle.

I've rarely seen Bacuna have a good game in midfield - all his best performances have been as full back or wing back in my view

I'd go with that. Like Ulises de la Cruz before him, he gets stick for playing in what isn't his best position.

Every squad needs a Bacuna type player. Not brilliant but does a job where's he's asked.

He would be fine as a bench option for us next season.  He's looked most at ease when playing right-back and I think that would be his best bet going forward.

Going back to the back 3, I could see Jedinak dropping back into the middle of a back three if Whelan arrives.

Looks like Bruce is hopeful Sam Johnstone will sign soon. 24/48 hours apparently

Which presumably ends the talk of Hart coming in.

Might bring both in.
Hart as number 1 with Johnstone his understudy.

Excellent excellent news, thought he was very good once he settled, he will develop hugely having Terry in front of him also.

Guess it's a loan, if so hope there's a clause that it's permanent if we get up this season.
