Did someone say that Tronstad wasn’t going to be out as long as expected or did I imagine it. 

Eustace said this week he is 3/4 weeks away

"I think it will be more three or four weeks (for anyone else). Hopefully Sonny, he was on the grass today, which is a great boost. He's still a couple of weeks away, but if we can get him back in three or four weeks, that would be great."

Think it was always one of Kargbo, Cissoko or Youan. 

Any money we have needs to go on a striker, with cover at lb and cm in an ideal world.

But this is Rovers...

Probably picked the wrong one of the three from what I've briefly seen of them.

I know he's having a decent season now but when Telalovic signed wasnt the rumour that he way near Olympic speed sprinter 

Can’t remember him stating he was an Olympic speed sprinter. Just read what others described him as. Just saying always a good sign if a player describes himself as having those traits. Has the belief in himself and hopefully we get to see it

It's a quiet month fixture wise also with only 4 league games in February, albeit tough games with 3 away. So hopefully only miss a couple more games

Last night was a massive example of how important Travis is to us, our midfield was invisible as soon as he went off.

It’s very important they get the CM signing right this time, go all out for O’Brien I say and give it a go.

Bi weekly suggestion to sign Jordi Jones from Notts County.  He'd get Gueye over 15 goals from his balls in and is better than Hedges

Fail to see how his balls would make Gueye score 15 goals but I will bow to your knowledge on that one 😉

Burnley signing Marcus Edwards on loan is absolutely insane.  £1m loan fee.  Id have been all over that

We'd be foolish to pay big loan fees like that. We need assets. 

[roversfan99]

Its with an obligation to buy presumably upon promotion.

The year before last year got 20 goal involvements in the Portuguese top flight.  I get the point around assets but you can't help but think he's getting 10 in this division 

[CrouchingNunhiddenCucumber]

No chance we're getting another winger

O'Brien will get sabotaged by the wretched Pasha, if it's even a genuine link in the first place

We may get a Prem striker on loan

We'll finish 8th

Having watched a few YouTube videos of Kargbo I’m impressed with the type of player he is. Reminds me of a Sadio Mane type…direct and quick. One, or two touches, and get on your bike, get round the back of the defence and take the shot or cross. No pirouettes, or bullshit extra touches, *cough DOLAN.

Looks like Elie Youan is waiting for us to come finish that deal off. Anyone else thinking it might end up, Kargbo, Youan, St and CM?

Really don’t think that striker is our problem might need a loan but apart from that I’d rather go for another wide man, a midfielder and a left back

If Leonard has done his back we need another CF. Ohashi is weeks away and we don't have anyone else.

Cissoko has gone to Sheffield Wednesday 

[MarkBRFC]

Looks like the Hibs winger is going to Stoke.

Is it OK that I'm imagining its our Big Mak sat behind his laptop typing this with a big grin?!

Surely a striker is our number one priority, we need someone who is all about goals more than anything else imo.

FFS. We needed two quick wide men to have any hope.

Well that was a quick collapse! Within 3 minutes, two of our main reputed targets heading to Championship rivals. Must be a record outside of deadline day.

[Torgeir]

We reportdely bid £800k for Youan, a player Hibs signed for around £1m. Now Stoke are bidding £1.5m?

Contract expires after next season.
