Would be an unreal bit of business, try get a 6 month loan. A LOT of fringe prem players will be going out on 6 month loans in Jan, especially with the World Cup coming up, players will be wanting game time

I’d agree would be unreal, I think it’s totally unrealistic but you never know. If players are desperate to play anything could happen.

I’m definitely parking the rumour until he’s played a game, lad cost £20m when Everton bought him. If we did it it would be loan to buy like Sunderland did with some. It’s either going to be really interesting or drab windows. I see no inbetween…

Wouldn’t even need to be a loan to buy, a 6 month loan for some of these premier league players is definitely possible this January

I’m not opposed to a loan to help us this season but I wouldn’t be dropping big money and a long term contract on McNeil.

He has a good left foot, is hard working, etc but he lacks pace and he doesn’t have a trick.

Everyone likes different types of players but in the prem league I think pace is critical.

So how come he’s played so many premier league games?

Lacks pace? He’s quick, are you thinking of another footballer?

I’d agree he’s not lightening quick & is on the slower side of wingers in PL, despite that has more than enough to play in that league & excel if he dropped down. Absolute class left foot & crossing ability something we’ve not got!

I’m pretty sure Doug will have agreed a fee

They rejected our fee in the summer. His value has gone up since on loan to us. They want to keep him.

Neil, McNeil and Manneh would be a superb window

I feel we need a Neil McNeil as the third signing tbf.

Doesn’t stop him agreeing a deal and the loan

Rushworth will only have a year left on his contract at the end of the season. Brighton can’t be asking a ridiculous fee for him when he can leave on a free 10/11 months after the season starts.
Not many keepers go for more than 10 million who have never played a top flight game at the age of 25 (start of next season) in their career. He’s up there with our player of the season so far.

Fairly certain they have an option to extend too. I know a few Brighton fans and they are all certain he won't be sold and could even be pushing for their first choice next season

He’d need to be going some to displace the current first choice but yes I have heard the same from the BHA fans I know.
