Summer transfer, gossip and speculation thread

Forgive me for being wary of left backs called Joe.

I fucking told you all. Shithouses, the lot of 'em.

[Brassneck]

I wonder if there's anything stopping us agreeing a loan with a view to buy in January?

I would guess that we'd still have this option available if we were looking for another permanent between now and the end of August?

The wisest thing you've said on here in forever.

Not just on here.

Why would there?

[oldtimernow]

Wonder if Chelsea put a number of games clause into Dasilva's loan, then if Bryan has to return as a spurned Bride...just saying

Really concerned we didn’t get a centre back in. The thought of Elphick scares me.

We have Axel...

Give how this window started I’d say that was a miraculous window. Now we need some smart loans to plug the gaps.

Attacking midfielder Giorgio Rasulo has joined Brackley Town on a free from MK Dons. Did we even try to sign him? If not sack the board. If we did and he chose Brackley over us then that is how low we have sunk.

No, I had never heard of him before either but he is listed on SKY's deadline day round up.

Would have been nice to have a couple more in, especially a CB and a striker but when I think back to how things looked a couple of months ago i'm well chuffed. Plus we still have time to do a couple more loans. Now let's smash this league.

No idea.  That’s why I asked.

With the permanent window coming to a close I would suggest for a big title tilt we need the following

One Striker
Left WB
Winger

Given Everton have been very busy I would definetly approach them for Oumar Niasse - beast think he would be a good hold up player. Id also go for Lookman - a real bundle of pace who I think would be a great addition.

LWB not sure about but clearly we cannot cope with just Neil Taylor doh.

We were linked to Dan Burn earlier in the summer, but he ended up signing for Brighton and being loaned back to Wigan until January.

I know there is still time to bring loans in but I think playing 3-5-2 is now dead in the water.  I am fairly sure that Jedinak and Elphick will be the backup plan for Chester and Axel in a 4 man back line.  De Laet and Hutton as the two full backs.  Like others, I'd have liked another centre back, dominant midfielder and a forward.
