I'm very curious as to who our new lwb will be. You'd imagine Reid is long term so another loan? Gonna be Sam isn't it.

Can’t see McCallum getting anywhere near the Norwich team so makes sense for him to come back to us and continue his development

Hope you are right but I have a feeling he'll be sent to a team fancied to challenge a bit higher up the league.

Can't believe we could afford McCallum on a permanent transfer. His value will have gone up considerably in the last year. Would like it to happen but another loan would be good, although I suspect still unlikely.

Is there any news regarding Walsh and Patterson? I believe Bristol City have done a U turn on Baker, and have offered him a new deal.

It doesn't actually say that. It says our priorities remain another striker and 2 wing backs not that we have agreed terms with them.

They’ve just said we want 2 and they could have just taken that from Robins saying we need to strengthen the left side of the pitch. For me, a centre half is a more pressing concern than getting 2 left wing backs.

Agreed, we need 2 centre backs in my eyes, one to replace Ostigaard and one to actually build on last years defence

The article doesn't say that does it? It says Robins' priorities are two left wing backs.

His priorities remain another striker, with reports that the club have agreed terms with Brighton for Viktor Gyokeres, and two left wing-backs.

Good use of bracketing commas from the telegraph. @SBT must have put an extra weetabix in Andy Turner’s breakfast

Wouldn't disagree. I'd be relatively underwhelmed if we started the season with only one new CB.

Gyo would be a great signing. If we can get him on a decent deal spread over time and with clauses a million wouldn't be too steep. The lad has raw potential and all the physical attributes. You don't get called up to a decent international side if you don't.

If we pull off Gyo and manage to get back Sam and Osti we are nearly there. Dream world would be Walsh, Patterson and a CB. Would be a strong gelled squad. Not really any total gambles

I think Walsh and Paterson have been in talks but can see Swansea getting both. Next week I can see us announcing a few which will make is clearer the path MR is taking.

Long time reader, first time poster here.
I may be feeling over optimistic with how England are performing in the Euro's, but I would like if this scenario could play out in next week or two:
Sell Allen for a reasonable fee (200-250k) to Lg.1 clubs linked. Move Kasta and Jobello on frees. Reckon that could realease 8-10k per week in wages, plus money from Allen fee.
Sign Walsh and Bright on 6k and 3k respectively?
I reckon Walsh could play further forward in a box midfield if asked and would be ahead of Sheaf (fitness permitting) for a holding role. You would be gambling on Bright having grown up in last 2 years, but a bench spot pushing O'Hare as AM could play well.
Thoughts?

Walsh would want more than 6k and nobody would touch bright with a barge pole at 3k

I reckon Bright will be after more than £3k. I don’t see any reason why a league one club would not go after Jamie Allen. He’s proven quality at that level. The type of player Sunderland should look at rather than the shite they usually get

His salary is reported at 6k for Briz in a couple of places. With pandemic players may be glad to get back on same terms. Admit you are rolling the dice with Bright.

I think I could stretch to one more year of McCallum on season loan deal. He suits our style too well. Gives coaches a chance to see what they have in Reid. However, likely Norwich sink back to Championship for next season so I feel he will get a run there long term.

Off to Swansea if you believe the efl zone. Either way the Patterson thing hasn't excited me at all. If he wasn't from cov would anyone even care?

Yes. Clearly. Unless 250 plus championship appearances for Forest and Bristol City with almost 50 goals and assists isnt what you think would improve our squad?

Yes, 100%. He's a good player. It's not the end of the world if he doesn't come though, will be other options.
