Onana stays for me. He’s been very good recently and can get better if he can curb the injuries. Bailey, both Emi’s, Digne, release Sancho and Elliot way before I’d consider letting Onana go. We are being linked on Instagram with a young, soon to be out of contract keeper called Benchaouch from Monaco.

Isn't that the type of injury that reserve goalkeepers regularly pick-up from  spending too much time with splinters in their arse?

We were linked with him when he was at Norwich. Looks decent.

This could be a "rogers" moment we only knew about him after playing boro in the cup.

He reminds me of eze

They'll have known about him before he played for the Norwich first team.

 Jonathan Rowe is exactly the type of player we need on the wing. Emery will know this.

He’s been good in 2026, I’d be wary signing a player off seeing him have a good game. That’s not saying he’s not worth it, but I’d hope our scouting is a bit longer term. Who knows maybe we’re already looking at him.

It was one of him or Rogers when we signed Rogers. Percy was reporting it all month but we couldn’t get it done with Norwich.

Definitely see us being back in for him.

I agree, Mustapha Hadji is exactly the player we're crying out for.

Rowe reminded me of Doku before he joined Man City. Let's go get him.

Bailey out, Sancho out and put the money towards Rowe.

Someone needs to have a quiet word in his ear when he comes to Brum for the second leg. That's what big clubs do.

I always consider Kachloul as "opportunistic free transfer to show how we can still just about chuck our diminishing weight around", rather than "had one of his best ever games against us so we now need to base our whole transfer strategy around him".

As apparently Jonathan Rowe now is.
