I'm not saying we should sign him, but he's a better footballer than Nakamba.

Different type of midfielder to Nakamba though. The comparison would be with Luiz and McGinn.

We probably don’t need a midfielder who blocks the path of the Ramsey brothers, Chuk etc, although I’m a fan of Cantwell. We need one who blocks the path of Nakamba and stops McGinn playing in the wrong position.

Quite. I would say if Hourahane is going on loan then someone is coming in but I’ve got a nasty feeling it won’t be the type of player that you, I, and everyone else is agreed on.

Too many outgoings for me is concerning on the back of an injury/Covid ravaged start. You can't afford to be light in any department in this League. We need another keeper as well. We've gone from 5 down to 2 with Heaton, Nyland and Kalinic leaving....

It's the replacement for Nakamba we need though.

Something like a defensive midfielder then Perce?

Exactly like that mate. Wasn’t particularly excited by the suggestions of Berge earlier in the window but would definitely take him now.

I'm telling you, things are moving behind the scenes. Somewhere in a surrey training complex, a frail looking german with a receding hairline has just finished his tactical talk on Aston Villa, and as the players file out, he briefly looks up from his notes to call after them. "Ross, Danny can I see you both in my office?"

Berge has Covid and would not pass a medical ,so Sheff Utd will keep him until Jan.

Lol...

My eyes hurt reading the last couple of pages. Damsgaard is the only link I've seen that I would be happy with.

Winks... He's a good footballer, but not what we need

Billing... Oh jesus no. He's poor and a waking red card.

Loftus Cheek leaving Chelsea... He was such a talent until 2 years ago. Adds size, but not much else.

We needed a DM and a 10 before the window. We lost our creativity from the left. We have not really replaced any of it and bought 2 right wingers. And the window shuts tomorrow.

DM definitely.  Not sure we need a 10 as I think an unshackled McGinn can be effective in advanced areas.

Maitland-Niles begging to be sold on social media. Could we use him?

If we don’t bring anybody else in it’s been an uninspiring / borderline shit transfer window:

1. Lose a world class player and our captain
2. Net spend at a minus to get one solid premier league performer, an elderly but still versatile player and a couple of unproven / potentially good players in
3.  Failure to address an obvious flaw in our first team

At very best it’s consolidation, which is not what we’re being sold.

you are right, if this is it we are in consolidation mode.
Mid table mediocrity.
