Hamstring after hamstring. Cracking player at this level but too much of a gamble.

I think if we somehow manage to keep our current squad together (including Lenihan, Dack and Rodwell), sign Reed, add a winger, a left back and find a genuine 20+ goal striker we will go into next season as expected to make play offs.

Think we will really struggle to keep Dack and Lenihan though. Likely to get major bids. If Travis keeps performing we will be fighting to keep him also. Also finding a top striker is very difficult.

On the other hand Reed looks doable as while very good he doesn't seem out of our league, but depends on the sort of fee Saints want.

Agreed. I think this illustrates the importance of building on a good nucleus now, rather than delaying and-inevitably-having to build from a weaker base...

Kodjia from Villa seems surplus to requirements. Might not be a bad shout.

He must be hard work or else why isn't he being played. Quality player on his day

Abraham is just better. Simple as that I would say

Really? Now that's interesting...

He is likely to go to Brighton by all accounts with Celtic, rangers and rb Leipzig amongst others interested

Any chance that Vincent Janssen would drop down to the Championship? Pochettino has said many times that he wants to get rid in january. I actually thought that he was older, but he is only 24.

Not for 10kper week he won't. 

Someone abroad will take him on sooner or later.

Wharton is being recalled, going straight back out on loan though..  Bury i think. 

[G Somerset Rover]

Downing starts for our under 23s tonight. No Brereton though - would have thought it would have been a perfect opportunity with no match until Saturday for us and his lack of game time.

Good. He needs game time and wasn't getting it at Lincoln.

What's the Chaddometer say about the lack of transfer activity?

It broke when Coyle got sacked.

Is I have been stopped from posting this by moderators. Coyle a banned word

Ha, his full name is censored. Can I still say Steve Kean?

Edit: oh dear, an oversight.

Off topic but seeing as your up, there's a blood moon developing just now, at its best in about 20 minutes, cloudy down here unfortunately

 

Damn, thanks for trying but didn't read this until the next day. Luckily I saw it perfectly in Greece in the summer.

We dont need another who plays just off a forward

[Gone to seed]

When does this so called 'transfer window' actually open shut? Not holding my breath for any significant or meaningful incomings or outgoings at this stage, anyway.

Give you a guess of when the 'January Transfer Window' shuts  

[Gone to seed]

Ya, just a bit bored with all this waiting around for nothing to happen
