The finishing by large has been poor this season but the defence is without a doubt our core issue. We still give away goals far too easily. To put into perspective we're only 5 goals from last season's GA total with 3 league games still to play. Granted injuries haven't helped, but regardless...

Blackburn have an option of a further year.

As fans they would say they're 'screwed' though as that's a typical emotive response from a fan of an established PL club at serious risk of relegation. The reality is though in the short term they'd probably be fine if they went down - which I personally think they won't now anyway - as they...

I think last time I checked Middlesbrough said they wouldn't even entertain offers below £20m.

No chance they'll be signing Spence permanently if they go up. As per the reports, he'll probably end up at Spurs.

Do you honestly think Everton won't be able to raise similar amounts through players sales though? Pickford, Calvert-Lewin and Richarlison are likely worth £80-£100m between them. There's others that they could move on for cut priced deals also.

Everton are in talks with JP Morgan and Japanese bank MUFG as well as having conversations with other private investors. Worst comes to worst though they will have to fund the project through equity while they're in the Championship.

I very much doubt they'll be screwed. Bournemouth spent around £200m on players over the same time period prior to their relegation and they've got nowhere near the commercial pull that Everton does.

Whilst that's true I think player sales should tie them over if they were to suffer relegation. They'd likely get decent, albeit reduced, fees for Richarlison, Calvert-Lewin and maybe Pickford, which would likely cover them until the end of the season. Couple that with loaning out a few...

I think give or take Walker's wage, along with the increases of Hyam, Hamer, Allen and O'Hare would've likely been pretty much covered by the outgoings of Mason, Bright, Kastaneer and Jobello in the first part of the season and by the exits of Pask, Shipley, Jones this summer. That being said...

If players aren't moved on I'd be surprised if Robins is able to bring in more than two/three signings in the summer.

Fair comments.

Bright was most likely signed because by the time Paterson made up his mind on our contract offer, much of the budget was already spent and so they had to settle for a cheap alternative.

With other Championship clubs fishing in these markets as well, prospects from League One will come at a pretty sizeable cost transfer fee-wise, which under the current operation is an area we'll always struggle to compete in. I suspect we'll more likely look again to Premier League clubs and...

Although he has been slightly inconsistent at times during the latter half of the season, Moore is still superior to any GK we've had since Westwood - and that includes Murphy, who whilst solid enough, was largely overrated by the fanbase during his time here. His performance against Fulham was...

There's not really a need to sell all three. One will almost certainly go - the club's last set of accounts pretty much is proof of that. Equally as Grendal has pointed out there are three players on Championship-sized contracts, plus Dacosta and Hilssner, who will probably cost to move on...

I don't think Barkhuizen does have injury problems per say, I think he's just been horribly unlucky this season. That being said I still wouldn't be overly happy if we signed him. Yeah as I've just said I'm fairly sure Luton don't disclose the contract lengths of their players.

I don't think Luton disclose the contract lengths of their players so as per the norm Transfermrkt just guess.

Joe Rothwell zero chance. Pederson no and would be difficult to sign anyway. Jed Wallace isn't a wing back and again zero chance. Toffolo has a one-year extension at Huddersfield which will probably be triggered. Alfie Mawson's injury history is poor and his wages still likely far out of reach...

Rose is contracted to the club until 2023.
