Wilson for a modest fee would be a very decent squad player in the wide roles for 2-3 seasons.

Ramos is way out of our financial possibility so a non starter.

🚨 Gonçalo Ramos is an option for Aston Villa.
@DuncanCastles


Looks a lot like McGinn and think he never misses s a pen. Imagine we'd need them to pay some of his wages.

Wilson has scored some cracking goals this season. Where does he play?

SJM’s position.

And Harvey Elliott's position. So it does feel like a sensible way to fill a squad position.

Think he's also the sort of player that would have benefited from someone like Emery when he was 23 and he might have turned a solid career into a memorable one.

Ramos would be a Rashford type signing..not sure what Ollie would make of it. Level above Tammy or Mateta, although the wages would be interesting?

Would be a terrific signing for us, but PSG won't want to let him go - he's a legend even though he never plays - which means we'd need to make our money do the talking... yeah, that money.

And potentially still could. He's the type that would slot in on the right and do a really solid job for the team, not coat a fortune and you'd imagine it be decent in the dressing room. I know our squad age is a concern, but numbers wise if the fee etc was right he could be one of the most shrewd pick ups we could do with SJM out. Hopefully Elliot fancies a bit of Charlotte for some game time and it frees us up to do some bits.
SJM’s position.

🚨🇧🇷 Chelsea are only interested in a loan deal for Douglas Luiz, no obligation to buy element compared to current Forest deal.

Aston Villa are not proceeding; #CFC are interested but only loan/loan with option not mandatory.

There's only room for one dominant backside in the squad: Profit & Sustainability (Gluteals) rules, cl. 307(b)(i).

According to Pete O'Rourke who I thought was an American writer our representatives have flown out to finalise the Tammy deal.

They should have stayed on after last night.

Talk of the young Turkish lad we signed in the summer going the other way as part of the deal.

Yacsin Ocsan?  I thought he was going to be a real star for us.

I'm fairly sure the deal with anderlecht is now an obligation to buy

Me too. Strange one, done nothing out on loan so we've clearly decided to take a bath on him to get Tammy in.
