Wouldn’t even need to be a loan to buy, a 6 month loan for some of these premier league players is definitely possible this January
Wouldn’t even need to be a loan to buy, a 6 month loan for some of these premier league players is definitely possible this JanuaryI’d agree would be unreal, I think it’s totally unrealistic but you never know. If players are desperate to play anything could happen.
I’m definitely parking the rumour until he’s played a game, lad cost £20m when Everton bought him. If we did it it would be loan to buy like Sunderland did with some. It’s either going to be really interesting or drab windows. I see no inbetween…
So how come he’s played so many premier league games?I’m not opposed to a loan to help us this season but I wouldn’t be dropping big money and a long term contract on McNeil.
He has a good left foot, is hard working, etc but he lacks pace and he doesn’t have a trick.
Everyone likes different types of players but in the prem league I think pace is critical.
Lacks pace? He’s quick, are you thinking of another footballer?I’m not opposed to a loan to help us this season but I wouldn’t be dropping big money and a long term contract on McNeil.

I’d agree he’s not lightening quick & is on the slower side of wingers in PL, despite that has more than enough to play in that league & excel if he dropped down. Absolute class left foot & crossing ability something we’ve not got!Lacks pace? He’s quick, are you thinking of another footballer?
I’m pretty sure Doug will have agreed a fee
I feel we need a Neil McNeil as the third signing tbf.Neil, McNeil and Manneh would be a superb window

Doesn’t stop him agreeing a deal and the loanThey rejected our fee in the summer. His value has gone up since on loan to us. They want to keep him.
Fairly certain they have an option to extend too. I know a few Brighton fans and they are all certain he won't be sold and could even be pushing for their first choice next seasonRushworth will only have a year left on his contract at the end of the season. Brighton can’t be asking a ridiculous fee for him when he can leave on a free 10/11 months after the season starts.
Not many keepers go for more than 10 million who have never played a top flight game at the age of 25 (start of next season) in their career. He’s up there with our player of the season so far.
He’d need to be going some to displace the current first choice but yes I have heard the same from the BHA fans I know.Fairly certain they have an option to extend too. I know a few Brighton fans and they are all certain he won't be sold and could even be pushing for their first choice next season
Unless we’ve already agreed a dealThe availability of Rushworth from Brighton, if they do sell , will alert a host of other prem teams …… not just us going up , so a wait & see game until the end of season.
They havent. As i said Brighton have no intention of sellingUnless we’ve already agreed a deal
Why? They seem him as a starter for themselves in the premier League?They havent. As i said Brighton have no intention of selling
They do like having 2 quality keepers, but if I were them I dont know why you wouldnt just be happy with Verbruggen. He's a quality keeper.Why? They seem him as a starter for themselves in the premier League?

Theres not many mid table teams who have 2 quality starting keepers.Why wouldn't they want 2 keepers though? Say if Verbruggen gets injured? Come on,use your brain
Yes.Why? They seem him as a starter for themselves in the premier League?
What about verbruggenYes.
Even on a loan with a view to a permenant should we go up.McNeil would be a fantastic signing.
One that you’d naturally think is out of our reach but teams running away at the top can pull off some of these mad ones.
He still plays under moyes doesn't he? Or less so since dyche went?McNeil would be a fantastic signing.

Would be the magical 'Le Fee' type deal people keep talking about i think. Loan with an obligation if we are to get promoted which Everton would see as likely looking at us imo. Also the only way we could afford the fee/wages.McNeil would be a fantastic signing.

He's played 90 minutes all year, so no, he doesn't.He still plays under moyes doesn't he? Or less so since dyche went?
Essentially what Sunderland did with Le Fee, that was a top level signing for them in the championship, hopefully can pull off one in the same calibreMany of us have commented on the challenges of this window.
Maybe one of the solutions is to seek players on loan with an obligation to buy if we are promoted.
It would enable us to target better players with limited risk.

Gee I wish someone would've mentioned this approach before on this thread
