Apparently, Nicolas Jackson has agreed terms with Bayern Munich.

Cross another one off.

If it was ever realistically on.

My biggest fear, far bigger than losing any particular player, is that Uni decides he has gone as far as he can with us because the restrictions placed on us which seem unlikely to change any time soon. There's no indication that it might happen in the near future but, as an ambitious manager, I  wonder how long his patience will last.
He might want to have a word with whoever is buying the players first.

I’m less worried about this.  He’s had a bash at PSG and Arsenal and didn’t last long.  As Percy has pointed out, the money villa have dwarfs most clubs in Europe so he’s still near the top of the food chain.  Any higher up and he’d probably lose the autonomy he currently has.

I also think they’re smart enough to reframe the objectives for themselves so success and positivity is still possible.

Lutsharel #Geertruida could still leave RB Leipzig before Deadline Day.

Several clubs have made enquiries about a loan deal with an option to buy. Leipzig are open to suitable offers.

Make it so.........

Or managing the various revenue/wages and other ratios that have us in this bind

I disagree. Jackson actually runs in behind, unlike the increasingly static Watkins. Our attack desperately needs movement and someone with pace to stretch in behind.

We’re really short of options, and points of difference up top. We’re also really exposed at centre half.

He might have pace but his touch and finishing are appalling .

I think we need a centre-half, a creative forward, and a pacy forward.
