In terms of names, if we are intent on improving central midfield, which shouldnt be a priority, but anyway, rather than trying to sign MLS players, Oliver Norwood is a very good midfielder at this level and is available from Brighton. 

Sheyi Ojo, Nikola Vlasic, Josh Sims and Brahim Diaz are all players that maybe we could sign on loan as natural wingers?

Chris Martin would be a very shrewd addition, him or Nelson Oliviera.

Maybe Nedum Onouha on a cheap deal would be a clever move to save money for more pressing positions, if he is fit enough.

Bakary Sako is still without a club, again no idea on wage demands.

Norwood would be good

Got to be honest.  He is the most talented winger I've seen seen at Rovers since Duff.  Yes he may have to start as an impact sub and there's always the worry  with injuries...but we  haven't had game changers on the bench in ages.  Potential of him and Armstrong would be great to watch develop.  Especially compared to some of the **** we've watched over the last nigh on a decade.

 

Won't sign now lol.

Yes mate. 100% agree. Chapman is absolutely class. He was amazing in the matches he played. Changed games on his own. The only negatives to this guy are the injuries.

He’s a winger isn’t he?

Expand  

Yeah although QPR have been playing him more centrally, he’s mostly been a winger though!

Freeman is an excellent player but similar to what weve already got.

He played as a winger for most of his career. Left wing

I'm not having it... Seems out of character this.

Maybe we will as well ?

[Tormund]

We all wanted a winger, so let’s see.

[briansol]

4 million sounds crazy, but seems QPR would be willing to sell:

Me, we need a back up for Graham.

Expand  

Forget that, we need better than Graham. If you're out to improve your side then surely that's the aim... To try and sign better than what you have.

Good signing He would be. Deep Playmaker there

They want a striker on a permanent too. Last week we offered 3m upfront for Sam Gallagher, weve been haggling ever since.

Tomorrow is going to be fun.

Very good. Would be good signing

I can't argue with that. Better than Graham won't come cheap though.

Agreed. You really can't find that "know how" with younger players that comes with experience and years in the battle.

TM knows Gallagher better than anyone. If he's on his list we need him.

[AJW]

Wtf .... ???i was just getting excited about Chapman then this Freeman link ... Have I gone back in time 7-8 years ... Jordan Rhodes apart who was the last player we spent 4m on ???

[Swanson]

Don't know too much about this Freeman guy, but I do know it is more fun to be linked with players that we actually can pay a fee for! Yesterday the USA captain and today a 4 mill pound winger.

Remember the window with Delfouneso and Petschi? That was depressing.

Interesting, why not make it 5 million and get big matt smith in from them as well  If we spend 4 million on one player I think I'll have a heart attack.

It does if they accept it. And that's not Clitheroe Costa unless they have low tables upstairs. They don't downstairs 

[AdamRochina]

Freeman is a steady eddy player if it's either him or Chapman it has to be Chapman who is younger too
