Axel (when fit) has been cpmfortably our best CB this season.  I'm not sure he'd be the one I'd move out of position.  We had pretty good balance in the centre with a midfield 3 of Hourihane, McGinn and Grealish, although logic might say you'd want someone more defensive minded at the base of the three.   Maybe if the Hayden links are true, thats a job for him.  Might be getting a bit greedy though!

Gibson would be a class signing at this level

I'm struggling to get my head round the Gibson move.  Why would Burnley sell him 5 months after they signed him for £12m?  And will he want to drop back down to the Championship and if he does wouldn't he want to go back to his boyhood club?

I still can’t get my head around knowing our defensive requirements plus potential of DMF, with 2.5 days of window left , we haven’t got them. Hope the club have learnt from panic buying, but if so why leave these rumoured names till last minute ?

Burnley have rejected our offer for Gibson

[PeterWithe]

We won’t be in for Gibson and Mings after signing Hause will we, that seems over the top getting in 3 utility defenders and still no specialist left back.

Shame we always do well with a Gibson in the team.

Mings would play left back I'd imagine.

BBC reporter saying we're interested in Chalobah on loan from Watford.

God we're such greedy bastards.

this all  sounds a bit desperate to me

signed  Nicola Ibbetson from Chelsea

Mrs Terry will be happy......

[Mister E]

Hayden would be an excellent move, giving cover at CB whilst playing primarily as holding MF.

Its not really though even if it comes across that way. Smith said a couple of weeks ago we were working on things. We can only bring players in if clubs are wiling to let them go and besides, Sky Sports always throw names around to keep the interest going until Thursday.
