Apparently we have bid £12m for Mbwana Sumatta from Genk but they are holding out for £15m.

Geez, it's sounds like most of you lot are writing off our record signing Wesley before he's even kicked a ball. I'd suggest we've signed him with the intention of playing him and i'd suggest that we're going to continue with 1 centre forward so having the 'promising' Davis and the 'might come good again played in the correct position' Kodjia as 2 back up's would be plenty for the first season. Maybe if we get to Jan and none of them are firing we would look at it then.
Personally i think it's absolutely critical that we get Mings (or equivalent) and a really good right winger. I would then say it's vitally important that we get a defensive midfielder and another centre back as cover and i think a goalkeeper would be a bonus, although i really don't think Steer has done a lot wrong and Kalinic is hardly tested for us yet.

Tanzania captain. They aren't in the top fifty in the World Rankings (or anywhere near) so we would be waiting a while on a work permit same as with Weselino.

If Wesley was out for a while, I wouldn't want to rely on Kodija or an unproven lad. I'm hoping we can sell Kodija and either loan Davis out or use him as a back-up.

Simon Stainrod just needs a break and I'm sure the goals will follow.

Never forget. Luke Moore once scored 6 goals in one game in pre-season. There's still a player there, I'm sure of it.
