Romano linking us with Nuno Tavares. I know absolutely nothing about him.

Hes shit.

Has such physical power & pace, but lacks technique & brainpower to do anything with it.

One Felix would do it. A genuine upgrade and can play up top and as an attacking midfielder, Diaby going wide if needed.

So now that's Mings, Buendia, Coutinho, JJ, Moreno all out, plus Zaniolo who is injured and also hasn't had a pre-season.

We really really need Ramsey back as based on strong end to last season he's a cert for the left to balance things up.

Based on the O/S update though probably won't see much of him until October.

Think main tactic will be just to create midfield overloads and get the ball quickly to Diaby and let him create stuff.

We certainly should be in no hurry to sell Digne either as he was an excellent attacking outlet today and can do the same v Hibs and Burnley.

JPB off to Hull apparently which explains his absence today. Hope we’ve got someone else coming in…

Bit of an odd loan move, surely Luton or Sheffield United would fancy him?

A lot of odd things at the moment. We must have a couple of attacking options coming in.

Gonzalo Montiel is expected to have a medical at Nottingham Forest on Monday ahead of completing a transfer to the City Ground.

Where was it he was supposed to be flying off to during the week?

Hull surely haven't got the finance to pay a big fee for him?

Obviously based more on potential but I'd be looking at 5-10m fee for him as he has looked good in championship when fit.

Just selling him for a couple of million would be odd one, I agree.

Completely different to Burnley putting down 12m for Ramsey.

Ferran Torres still can't make Barca starting 11 despite them having loads of injuries/suspensions.

One of those where both clubs would be happy to do a deal but the player is like Felix and feels we're beneath his ability/level.

Still could be possibility of a late loan move perhaps?

This is apparently how Zaniolo ended up at Galatasary last January. He tried to get a move to the Prem but in the end the only place he could go was Turkey, and he wanted out of Roma enough to make that move. There's several big name players holding out at the moment and it'll be interesting to see where they end up. Felix is apparently trying to get his contract terminated, which would make him more affordable, I guess, for someone else.
