It's been 11 days since we sold Armstrong so it hasn't been more than a couple of weeks since we agreed a fee for Obafemi.

We wouldn't get permits for most of them now to be fair Couple of posters have mentioned the club being interested in Rhys Healey,think even the telegraph mentioned him a while back one of them said.Playing in the French second division

Obafemi would just replace Dolan,we need someone who will get us goals,Obafemi won't get as many as Arma but he is a lot stronger,and from the games IV seen him in and the clips iv seen his link up play as good aswell.Id be more confident in Obafemi scoring the goals we need than Dembele. We don't need Brereton, Gallagher and another lanky player.We need to accept that Mowbray will always play Gallagher and Brererton as "wide strikers" if Dembele comes in he will go into Dolans position

Hopefully Armstrong is having a word in Obafemis ear snd telling him it would be a good move. Honestly think he would be a bargain at the prices quoted and going off Sharpe and the telegraph the wage he Is on at Southampton is in line with what we pay our players

He hasnt gone anywhere else Chaddy,not every transfer happens instantly.It is a big decision and I don't blame him for taking his time and not signing instantly for the first club to agree a fee for him . It's been a couple of weeks

Has Obafemi gone anywhere else? Mowbray didn't even know he would see any of the Armstrong money until he was nearly out the door. How do you know Healy wants to come here.Its a big decision for Obafemi and with all due respect you have no idea if Obafemi has spoken to Mowbray.How do you know that a telephone conversation hasn't been had? For us to be still interested then there must be some inclination that a deal can be done.If Obafemi was fully against coming here then surely him or his representatives would thanks but no thanks.

You don't know that .He is weighing up his options which is what any other player would do in his position.

Yes and Obafemi is clearly at the top of that shortlist.Like I said whatever new striker we get wont be available for West Brom anyway and only one other game against Boro before the window shuts .

Exactly plus he is only 20 he will mature, and that interview he did suggests he realises he needs to knuckle down and be more professional. I don't think Dembele would be a bad option but his record suggests he isn't a prolific goalscorer and at 24 he is 4 years older than Obafemi. IV not seen anything of Healey apart from highlights from YouTube and although he looks like he knows where the back of the net is,the majority of his career has been spent in league 1 and the French second division and he is 6 years older than Obafemi

I don't agree that Mowbray should drop his interest in Obafemi just because he is taking his time over making a decision over his future. It's a big choice, he could live or die in terms of his career development with his next move.Its not everyone's dream to play for Blackburn Rovers, he will have other interest and do not blame him for taking his time . We will have no new striker for West Brom anyway and only one other game before the end of the transfer window and the International break.We will be making enquiries over other strikers anyway In the event the Obafemi deal doesn't hsppen I would prefer Obafemi to any of the other strikers we have been linked with personally.

If I had the choice out of the two it would be Obafemi.

Gary Cahill having a medical at Bournemouth.Good signing if it goes through

Yeah Barry Fry did say that but he isn't going to say he is available, they will want the best price possible. He is out of contract at the end of the season if they get an offer of a couple of million can see them selling, wether we will be in the race to sign him I have no idea

Obafemi deal not dead https://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/19524104.latest-blackburn-rovers-interest-michael-obafemi/

They said be two weeks before he was back and I think that was last week. Perhaps the centre back from City

Yeah but my point was he was calling out posters for "blindly supporting Buckley". The other guy you quoted was just defending Buckley.

He has been feeling tightness on his hamstring that's why he was left out

We will use our loans and a permanent striker will be brought in imo We need a left sided centre half if we are going to be playing 3 at the back at times this season

Yes but we would be reliant on not facing the injury issues we had last season. Don't think all the 12 that departed need replacing be we do need another 4 or 5 being brought in.

Agreed he should have finished it off but he still played his part in our win.If he keeps getting into those positions then he will get a few goals

And some are hell bent on never giving him any credit . Did you give him credit in the Swansea game?Any credit for the wonderful pass which led to our opening goal. He played alright tonight notthing special but not awful either which you seem intent on making out , his finishing was poor but he isn't the first player in the world to miss a couple of chances.He is getting into good positions

That loan move to Burton has worked wonders for Carter.He looked like a rabbit caught in the headlights when he first appeared for us in the championship.Was extremely impressed with him tonight. We should be looking at getting loan moves for McBride,Vale ,Garrett and a few others

Why? Would it be that strange for Nyambe to be injured?

Get in. Chapman did very well after coming on.Carter defended very well.Ayala top class Hopefully nothing serious with Rothwell has started the season with end product

Pears is injured
