Yes but I'm not sure how many times it needs to be said. The window is almost done so we'll know pretty soon.
Onyeka tonight please Doug.

Oh yeah, it should be common sense at this point. A full bedwetting session shouldn't be allowed until the window is firmly shut regardless, but I don't think it will be necessary anyway.

Frank tomorrow and Hamer Saturday. Delicious.

Signing Frank without Hamer would be serious cuck behaviour!

Fortunately Doug doesn't sit in the cuck chair

I am tempted not to entertain these types of comments, but given the wobbles we've seen on here in the last few days, I think it is worth reminding people that if he was still here we wouldn't be top of the league.

It’s looking increasingly like that home game against them is going to be pretty important. If he scores the winner and gives a fist pump I won’t be responsible for my actions.

Wont happen. I am seemingly alone in wanting our midfielders to be able to pass more than five yards backwards.

Maybe Rudoni is going to get his shoulder surgery in an attempt to stop it recurring and get deregistered from the squad with Esse playing in the 10?

We do need to lose first teamers before we can sign more, we have 25 players now not including our youth products such as Andrews, So Bidwell, Brau, Allen jump out as possible options, and then the likes of Rudoni, MVE, Wright, Sakamoto if we want some money in.

Half the problem there is the fact that our central forwards are useless at holding the ball up from a direct/long pass.

Still expected back before end of season, they will want him registered in case he is as if anything happens to Rushworth he is a better bet than Wilson.

It's the time of the window when experienced Championship players such as Bidwell become more attractive to teams looking for numbers and experience.

I would be surprised if we let Bidwell go tbh with Brau being an accident waiting to happen

Brau out on loan seems like a sensible move. Then in the last few days of the window look and see if we can get in a better LB and possibly move Bidders on if we need space in the squad. I would worry he's one of only a few senior heads in the group now though

Andrews will go on loan, we'll keep Allen even with Onyeka coming in i think, he'll want to keep that midfield stock.

My guesses at outgoings and no i'm not saying all these will leave before anyone starts, maybe even none when all said and done...
Brau/Bidwell - depends if a new LB is on the radar, preferably a starting level one.
Woolf/Lati - as above, think we'd be prepared to take a hit on Woolf but only if a new one is coming in, we'd accept a half decent offer for Lati too.
Sakamoto - wildcard one based on the signing we've just made.
One of our CFs - another wildcard if the links to Sinayoko are true.

I think Andrews will be out, and Bidwell/Brau will go with a LB coming in.

Anything else seems to be too much business for such little time.

Those are just the ones i think we'd be prepared to shuffle on if the opportunity presents itself. I agree once Onyeka is done i feel like a LB is the most likely. If we're going to have our fullbacks bombing forward i'd want one with far better output than Dasilva and generally just a quicker more physical one. Bidwell and Brau look cooked.

Andrews doesn't count towards the 25 man squad. Although a loan for his development is a good idea.

Other than Sakamoto, the others you've named as possible departures seem to be one in one out with a new player coming in to take their place.

That doesn't leave room for Onyeka.

It's not an exact science, those are just the cards i think we'd be most likely to shuffle. Although i would say i think one of the LBs could go even if we don't bring another in.

Sheffield Wednesday are pretty desperate for a left back and players in general. Could send them a few…but I’m also mindful of adding in too many new players who have to hit the ground running. Preferably want known quantities particularly in defensive parts of the pitch.

I could see Brau going out on loan to make use of a squad space for a CM

But could only see Bidwell going with another LB coming in.

Doubt any of Lati, Wolf and even Sakamoto go out.

We just need to deregister players. Dovin and Brau for starters frees up 2 spaces.

Saka isn’t going anywhere, we’ve brought in two loan wingers so I’d imagine this is just a permanent option. With Rudoni out, Esse will cover him so Saka will be on the right with the new guy on the bench. Lampard is a big Saka fan always praises him.
I’d imagine they’ve been looking at the new guy for a while and it’s more a timing thing.
Andrews defo going out on loan, needs gaming time and surely Brau goes.

I think there could be some surprises in outgoings.

Both Brau and Bidwell exit and a new LB comes in

Woolf might go on loan for game time and a perm CB comes in. I think he’s time is done here already.

Potentially 3 out with squad slots available

We are the top scorers in the league. If he was here our playing style would be different and we would be a lot less offensive. Torp (who is one of our biggest goal contributors) would have played less as well. We haven't changed the squad much since last season, yet we have overperformed compared to last year.

Sure, in recent games we could have done with being tighter in midfield, so I can see why some have commented that he would have been useful. There is a reason why we haven't heard his name mentioned until about a week ago though. We've been drastically better without him.

I know you are trolling anyway. Given how smart you are, there is no way you actually believe we would be even higher in the table!

Hope we don't give up on Brau yet. He's showed glimpses of a player. League 1 loan for a few months to get game time ideally.

Of course he isn't. He made the winner Leicester FFS. He should start on Saturday. Esse is an impact sub. Doesn't have the fitness or defensive discipline to start at the moment unless they move him to No.10 if Rudoni is out.

Esse should start, if anything Sakamoto has been better as an impact sub than a starter. Only our fans could be unimpressed with 2 goals from 3 games for a new recruit. Rather have Sarmiento who has averages about 2 goals a year.
