Never heard of the American lad. Fits the profile though: Small Midfielder Scores once in a blue moon!

To be fair, I think between Bennett and Travis, we have enough cover for Nyambe. Winger and forward essential for me.

Weird. He's effectively ended his career as a first choice keeper. Although you would assume Heaton or Pope may go to one of the big guns within the next 12 months.

Agreed. If he was a high priority, can't see why this couldn't have been done before Villa's interest. Will be interesting to see how he does at Villa. Could be one that we regret. Or not lol.

If this lad from Stanley is good, why are we not in for him?

Wow. Bolasie will do some real damage at champ level. Time to nip in for Chapman then ? Agree with Armstrong. No problem with a loan signing up front -as long we improve other areas with permanent buys. Still need to keep an eye on replacing Graham in the next 12 months.

Flipping that - not spending money under the pretense a deal is to expensive results with a couple of freebie signings who contribute next to nowt. Which also gets us into trouble.

If we do splash a bit of cash on another 2/3 quality signings we could well become dark horses for a play off spot. That said, if Dack, Lennihan, Armstrong etc do gave great seasons and we don't go up, you would be a brave man to bet against them being snapped up.

They couldn't afford him. If Dack proves he's good enough at this level, his next move is to the Prem. Probably to a Wolves, Palace, Newcastle type club for silly money.

Looks like Villa see McGinn as their Grealish replacement. Doubt we could compete with them wage wise. Shame.

Anyway. When are we re-signing Rochina?

Fair point and welcome aboard.

Atkins had that knack of being in the right place at the right time. Like a Frank Lampard in a parallel universe. Luck beats technical abiliy.

?? It was a bit of a jest as the previous poster had said he'd be happy with Bauer, Maddison and McGinn. And these days it doesn't take many Coronas!

Smallwood gives 100 percent. He's a poor man's Savage. He would be great coming off the bench to help close out games. A great squad player. Shouldn't be a definite starter though as technically he's quite poor. The higher up the league you aspire, the more technical/footballing ability you need. Such is life.

Chapman's doesn't ?

I like yours better.

F it - lets just get Bauer, Maddison, Chapman, McGinn, Matt Smith....and promotion

Or go to Brighton..

Going to stick my neck out that we will sign 3 on Thursday. 2 permanent, 1 loan. *Prediction based solely on the amount of Corona drunk.

I think that Armstrong will be the impact sub for first part of the season. Great to have someone with pace!

Had it with McGinn. Number 7shirt taken. Happy Arma done though ?

It's very quiet. Are we in the eye of the storm?

Anyone that needs 3 different companies - essentially doing the same thing.-should set alarm bells ringing. But hey ho. Such is the modern world.

Peterborough had a decent side..but the team seemed to run out of steam after 70 mins. Probably due to the number of pacy players running out of steam!
