Price agreed, having a medical. Strong midfielder, probably underachieved but a massive upgrade on what we have today.

TV, where are you getting this from?   I hope it's all true.  Would be a great signing and tips the window in to positivity!

Always liked him. I'd have been more than happy with him when Norwich bought him ages ago.

Big, powerful and certainly more of a presence than Connor Hologram,  with more legs than Glue Wehlan.

Happy with this.

Alan Nixon gave a thumbs up quarter of an hour to someone asking and now everyone is tweeting it as though it's fact. https://twitter.com/reluctantnicko/status/1091059855379578883

Yep, if we can the best out of him this could be a good signing for us.

As usual? It’s January - everyone pays a premium.

I’m sure I read elsewhere that his contract at Swansea runs out in the summer so you’d hope not.

Good move, could be the most important business we've done this window.

Us more than most, at this level anyway. Brentford could live off the Hogan fee for years.

This would really beef our midfield up.  Permanent transfer too, if it happens.

I did indeed, it’s on the Beeb.

He’s Patrick van Arnholts cousin. A fact that if shared is sure to attract female attention for anyone.
