I know it's a strange time and the market is all over the place but, can we get a bloody move on and bring in some much needed players?

Messi available, possibly on a free.

Decent back up for Trez and El Ghazi.

Too old to fit the profile. No good on the back stick defending corners.

Yeah, I suppose. And he 'holds on to the ball too long'.

The lack of any activity is getting a little worrying now.

Hopefully, we get three in a week but I'd rather wait and make sure it's the right three.

I have a feeling the owners will want to see a couple of sales Bree Hogan possibly Trez and Marv , and just maybe we’ve only got about 60 mill to allocate to Transfers especially if we keep the rest of the squad.

The wage bill is one of the lowest in the division and those players mentioned are worth peanuts. It wouldn't really show us we mean business if our window is being dictated by the sale or loan of a few squaddies who aren't worth a bean.

I know we need to build steadily and intelligently but the news that Everton are after James Rodriguez and might actually get him is a kick in the bollocks.

I’m not sure about so called statement signings..the team is about how the players interact with each other....square pegs etc, let’s get some John Robsons, Ken McNaught, Chris Nichol type of signing...build over a few seasons

Everton are not a club I'd be looking at jealously regarding their transfers.
