Tish will be sold or more likely just released

Yes, in the grand scheme of things, the money is now negligible but it was every bit as bad a signing as Richards, RM and even Balaban.

Luiz?

U21 (and down as Douglas) We won't need to name him.

Player to be named later*

Striker is our weakspot. If Wesley doesn't get it done or gets hurt we have nothing in reserve

Quick look at the ages in the squad and I make it that we currently have 26 players that we'd need to name and most people want to add 2 more (Keeper and Striker)

GK
1 Steer
2 Kalinic
3 Nyland
4 {NEW}

RB
5 Guilbert
6 Elmohamady
7 Bree

LB
8 Targett
9 Taylor

CB
10 Chester
11 Mings
12 Hause
13 Engles
14 Konsa

MD
15 Makamba
16 McGinn
17 Grealish
18 Hourihane
19 Lansbury
20 Bjarnason
21 Tshibola

WI
22 Jota
23 El Ghazi
24 Trezeguet

ST
25 Wesley
26 Kodjia
27 Hogan
28 {NEW}

U21
Douglas
O'Hare
Green
Davis
RHM

So I reckon we'll move on Bree, Tish and at least one from BB, Lansbury or Hogan.

Sounds about right, Bree maybe on loan.

Oh, and one of the GK will go as well.

Agree x 100.... even Jed should be ok behind behind all that cover..... let’s get strikeforce sorted..... are Maupay or Bowen going to be cheaper that foreign alternatives   ?
Or given our signings so far are we in for A Worldy no9 that’s not been linked yet !  ?

I agree on the keeper, not sure how I missed that. I suspect it would be Kalinic to go.

Well I'm sure we have not finished yet. Two more to come in.

I would have thought Nyland but then i suppose if a club wants Kalinic and is willing to give us a fair chunk of money back and there are no takers for Nyland, it'll be Kalinic. Either one is going to be 3rd choice which i wouldn't imagine they'll be too chuffed with.

They'll sign a keeper for sure and i have got a feeling another forward will come in. I would have thought Maupay, left out of Brentford squads and this is clearly the obvious choice of destination.

Maupay and Heaton please. I like the Brentford winger too, greedy I know.

Benrahma and Maupay for 25m plus Hogan and Green
Heaton for 6m or Butland who would be in goal for the next 10 years for 20m.

Brentford will not want those 2 players so at best that suggestion is insane.

Think we will ship a few out on loan and a couple of sales by the end of the window. For a (welcome) change, its buy first.

I think it's striker and goalkeeper and then done. Gut feeling is that it's Maupay and Butland. Butland I'm happy with, Maupay I'm a little underwhelmed by. Looking at the way this window's gone, however, I wouldn't be surprised to see a couple of wonderkids from Spain rock up just as the window is shutting.
