Guilbert now a done deal as per SSN Transfer Centre on-line.
Apparently we have signed 3 Frederic Guilberts.

Two Leroy Fer's
And Kalinic as a goalie.

As someone else mentioned earlier we are following a great strategy wether it’s to nip into playoffs or already prepare for next year in championship... signing decent quality youngsters in this window to replace those that prob won’t get contracts renewed or that have left already. Plus the better talented youngsters or U23 squad we already had going out on loan to get a few months big boy football in readiness for next year.
Purslow and Smith both did say they want to think more of a reserve team as opposed to U23’s
Well done all those working on this so far UTV

Having said all that, how on earth are we going to hit FFP !

Batshuayi off to Palace.... How about bringing Benteke home for the rest of the season to support Tammy? 😗

One left back short of a decent window.
Oh well, never mind eh?

Yes I think LB was the position we are weakest in so a little surprised that we don’t seem to have tried to hard to solve it immediately

Hause has obviously been brought in for l/b with mings as cover/cb how is this not "solved"?

I reckon, and it's based on nothing but a feeling, that Rico Henry will be in come the summer. I read somewhere that he'd said he wanted to stick with Brentford until the summer because they'd stuck by him through his injury (which if true shows a good attitude). So I think the plan is to use Hause/Mings as LB and LCB until then, which is still an upgrade on Taylor.

When we get Axel back, a four of Mings, Chester, Axel, Hutton doesn't look terrible, especially if we can get Fer to sit infront of them.  I know he's signed Mings with an eye on CB initially so we might have to put up with Taylor for a bit longer.

Hause is a left footed centre half.

What a piss poor transfer window. That's this season written off.

We desperately needed a proper left back and a defensive midfielder this week, and got neither.

Massively disappointing.

Looks like we have used the window to slash our wages bill.
