When there was talk of Gyokeres possibly being sold the summer before King took over Alan Nixon was reporting that we would have replaced him with a loan. Luke Plange was the name he was reporting.

Exactly this. Compare this to Jamie Allen's contribution last season. It is night and day. Palmer is clearly twice as skilful and has far more ability. I'm sure he's the best player in training every day. Come match day his impact on the result of a game is absolutely nothing. Don't really know...

Anyone who has watched Palmer will know why he doesn't start. Classic cameo from him today. Has ability but never has any meaningful impact on the result. Shooting is poor. Passing is poor.

Good to hear...

Andy Turner says nothing in this

Josh Wilson Esbrand going to Cardiff on loan

In fairness he's got a full days work reporting on transfer deadline day... When it sounds like nothing is happening.

Andy Turner says no interest in Ebiowei

Allen is a pretty underrated in my view. Scored some really important goals for us last season. Proper goals as well. Broke the deadlock in multiple games that we went on to win. By contrast, I'm always critical of Palmer for this. If a game is tied at 0-0 you'd never back him to make a...

Fair point but I would argue we have been quite fortunate with injuries since SheaF, MVE and O'Hare returned. Only feels like we are a couple of injuries from looking pretty ordinary again in my opinion. Even last night it showed Lati isn't a proper midfielder and Palmer isn't a wide player.

Agree. You can have a long term plan but still recognise we have an opportunity this season. Two steady loans could make all the difference.

Said the same. Loan with an option would be perfect.

Was saying the same earlier. Blackburn, Sunderland, Birmingham and Middlesbrough all look set to sell someone for £15m+

Would love someone in the mould of Ray Sakyi. He is just back from a pretty bad injury though.

Ali Al-Hamadi reportedly going to Ipswich for about £1m. Would have liked him. Reports that multiple clubs have tried to hijack the deal.

This genuinely gives me hope. I think his source is starting to try to embarrass him!

To be fair I agree he is a good player and was surprised he was allowed to go to Middlesbrough. The potential was there when he was at Blackpool last season. Just can't see why the price has jumped so much in five months at Middlesbrough.

Villa reportedly about to pay up to £15m to Middlesbrough for Morgan Rogers. Hate transfers like this... boosting the coffers for one of our rivals. What the hell has Rogers done since being signed for £1m in the summer to warrant this fee?!

Has Matt Smith hacked your account?

Haha. Have pretty much said exactly this to others. Big, awkward lump. Reminds me a bit of Sam Gallagher (might just be his hair!). Seems to be strong though and can hold the ball up. Something we are sadly missing.
