The market I think is starting to correct itself. Players who’ve gone to China now finding it very hard to come back mid contract or on loan as they’ve priced themselves out.Baston cost £15m 5 years ago so clearly has some talent. A gamble yes - but a better gamble than loading your wage bill with a mercenary.

When we were in the championship we were able to get better players on short term deals.
Have we still got Jota by the way or did he go to Fulham?
until the glassman gets shattered again, I imagine he won't get that much game time
Will he be the answer to our prayers ?!Interesting to see if he gets any game time in the next game v Chelsea or Newcastle WednesdayHe'll be due some minutes .If he does well and contribute he has incentives to be in the team and start.But likely to come from the bench Vs Chelsea
