Who remembers the good old days of relying on ClubCall for transfer rumours? And then waiting for Ceefax to confirm transfers?

Lol I do where it would take about 5 mins of the call to get to the point.

He was signed on a 4 year deal. To be fair given your performance on here the last few weeks regarding signing or not signing players I can’t even take you seriously regarding football anymore let alone anything else.

Loads of our squad joined on four year deals?

The uncomfortable reality for you is that Dasilva is the first choice LB because he’s currently the best of the three on the books. I’m not sure Lampard feels any obligation to play him beyond that.

No! Doubt they will, but they can afford it!

It’s hardly an uncomfortable truth - we should bite the bullet and sign another. I’m sure if you were a Boro fan you’d be shuddering at the thought of signing Adam Armstrong as he might not be good enough for the premier league.

Your whole take on this transfer window has been bizarre

I know but the point was he was constantly deriding trying to sign players “not Premier Ready ” - no one gives a fuck at this stage. As Ipswich didn’t when they took Kieffer Moore or Bournemouth with Kyame Jones - you just spend to get over the line

a) I’m not entirely sure what you’re saying, and b) match ready doesn’t necessarily mean the same as fit

Not sure why the great concern about LW when LB remains much more of an issue imo.

I always said in happy with squad bar light on wingers and that's now been sorted

Frank is a good addition to the midfield so anything else is a bonus imo

What's the best time to come back to this thread, you reckon?

I was thinking about 19.14, but is that too early?

Maybe 20.00 would be a better time.

I really don't let it get to me and say whatever will be will be..

So, I think I will keep off here until maybe 8ish. Should be pretty all much done and dusted by then with a bit of luck.

Not really. I like da Silva and think bidwell is a solid back up for this league as he showed Vs swansea

7/10 window if this is all.

Positives:

Like the signings of Onyeka and Esse
Onyeka as a loan with a view is a +1 to the score in itself
Andrews going out on loan is good.

Negatives:

Not sure on the Yang signing.
The winger we signed permenantly may be fine, but its an odd deal to do now.
Would have liked a LB in and shifted some of the dead wood.

Why ware we down on the Yang signing? I missed the memo.

He's not had much of a chance, surely not enough to judge him. Looked ok in the FA cup game to me, bit lightweight but can't write him off yet.

I think its because he looks very bog standard. Not the sort of inspiring difference maker signing you expect to get you over the line.

And you've decided that off the back of one start in the cup and a couple of cameos where the whole team is underperforming. He'll be a luxury player and will have use if/when we find form again. We were never looking to upgrade EmC this window. Yang Someone to come on to give him a break, adds a bit of unpredictability to the squad

Think it’s maybe so both teams can confirm the transfer at the same time? Total guess mind….

Of course we can, clearly he's raw but he's thought of as a huge talent for the future. I bet we'll be glad to have him over the course of the next 6 months. Relax

He’s a luxury who, crucially, has often not retained possession and made the wrong decisions (in his limited game time admittedly, but in important game situations).
