Window is a few weeks out, here's what i'd consider a good and semi-realistic window;

IN
John Ruddy - Free        
James Hill - 2m (?)
Ben Chrisene - Loan to buy    
Yasin Ayari - Loan
Herbie Kane - Free    
Siriki Dembele - 1.4m    
Josh Bowler - Free
Duncan McGuire - 2.4m    
Aaron Connolly - Free

OUT
Gallagher - 1m
Szmodics - 12m
Wahlstedt - Loan
Telalovic - Loan
Garrett - Loan

Seems unlikely they'd spend that much (~6m) atm but if they sell Gally and Szmodics I think it becomes more possible. Some pricey frees in there too I guess, but would massively improve the squad that's for sure.

Would also like to see a better keeper bought, but feels certain that they're getting Ruddy and that's that.

Expand  

Kane and Connolly would certainly be decent options if we could bring them here. Kane has always been highly regarded from his Liverpool days. appeared to have gone off the boil but 9 goals from midfield in League 1 last season. Barnsley won’t be happy about loosing him on a free after paying a million plus for him a few years ago.

 

Not sure  Connolly has the best goal scoring record in the championship but far better than anything we have and generally works the line really well when he’s played against us.

Connolly would be an improvement on Gally without a doubt.

I’d agree with most of the incomings. Connolly seems damaged goods though. Bit overweight, plenty of stories about of him doing stupid things in his personal life. Avoid for me.

Looks like he was dropped from when Rowatt took over…I doubt that was because he isn’t good enough.

His goal record is shit and didn't he spend time on the bench at Peterborough and Bournemouth?

We need players who can contribute goals and assists.Dembele strikes me as a highlight player gets the crowd off their feet with a bit of pace and trickery but minimal end product.His wage will be on the high side aswell

I don't think Dembele is particularly quick either. He's got a tricky way about him that creates space but I've never watched him and thought he's a noticeably fast player... Someone may prove me wrong.

We all want players who can contribute but we also need players who are direct…Name one moment any of our attackers ran at a full back and beat them? Never happened and the last person we had who even attempted that was Rothwell and my god we miss him.

Let dembele do all the “highlighting” and leave it to our other signings to get the goals - he has the ability a lot of our players don’t have.

Miyoshi is becoming the new Rhys Healey.

The players mentioned tend to be the same few, both Dembele's and Rak Sakyi on a repeat.

It's cut and paste every transfer window. Player x gets linked. People get excited. Player x doesn't arrive and probably wasn't even an option. Next window arrives... What about player x?

Well maybe if Rovers have recruited these players might be we would be much better off. I can give you list of potential signings I believe would improve our squad and add quality to us.
