If Bassette is returning, I'd play him up front at Stoke, and get our 50p worth out of him.

If Bassette is returning I would imagine it’s to be loaned/sold to someone else. We can’t play him if we want to do that.

If he plays then its clear Doug is scrimping out

How many goals has Bassette scored out on loan? Im sure i saw that he hardly played, nevermind scored. Surely him coming back is a non starter

Don't agree it will mean nothing because, you know, we've had two good seasons before this one with some great memories and have a ground that's full every home game as a result. Putting that to one side, to brand the folks running the club as 'pathetic' because we haven't signed a bunch of players by Jan 4th is just entitled bullshit*t.

If they can get more elsewhere and to offer the same blows our wage structure to bits then let them go. It would appear his agent and maybe the player did the same in the summer so good luck to him and we find a player who wants to play for us

I think we need an alternative 10 more than a LW.

We don't need any more centre backs so I have no idea why it's even a discussion point.

I'd take a Winger and a 10 who can also cover on the wings

We need experience, and if Doug King doesn't like loanees then he is not the businessman I thought he was. You don't discount anything if it means the business can move forward and at present we do not need a wizzkid from abroad who takes months to adjust to the culture, let alone the league. We need two or three old heads who can bolster our defence and midfield, players like Fadz and Cole, even if they demand breaking the pay structure do it as they won't command a huge transfer fee. As well as that bring in Esse from Palace as well, he will hit the ground running and supply the forwards. Hopefully, Asante will be back soon so he is like another signing.

I think if you think we need 2 or 3 in, youre deluded. Id say 5. Maybe 6. We were 2-3 short in the summer. That had a knock on effect. I think we're now 5-6.

Personally I think:
LB cover better than Bidwell/Brau would be nice but not essential.
CM
ACM/No10
LW
RW both not necessary if we could find someone that can cover both sides maybe.
ST. A different option to Wright and Simms. Somebody quick. Bit of pace. Adam Armstrong type striker.

So 4. 6 if Doug is feeling generous.

That's probably too many. You have to integrate them and come the summer, may need to replace them with better players.

Manneh was never happening anyway. I dont get much anymore as we know, but when I do it tends to be correct

Esse however is very likely

Hearing he’s just put in an offer for a lively French 21 year old….

Well if they don’t want him and send him back to us there’s not much we can do,

SkyblueGod seems to think that Manneh is likely to happen. He knows the agents side.

This is why I’m convinced he’s not gonna be here long. He just doesn’t have the funds to go to the next level.

he could probably afford a midtable side - but a promotion side is beyond him

Dan Neil is surely a red herring. We will only want him on a short term deal. Sunderland will want a transfer fee as he’s out of contract in 6 months. He will likely be expecting a juicy contract as transfer fee will be lower than normal. Bit risky on his side to accept a short term deal from us. In any case, they won’t release him early as he’s currently squad backup while first teamers are at Afcon.

Esse would be a good signing, but we need 3 more. Need some fresh faces to bring some energy to the group. We look sorry for ourselves and need a spark to lift the load, being chased looks like a burden we dont want

I see WHUFC have just signed two forward so he is surplus and I was just going to mention him. He is what we need. His experience would be so useful for our forwards and he can still knock them in.
