I have midfield as our position of least need, but if we can start improving on the likes of Allen then I'm all for it. All our midfielders seem to get a decent amount of minutes.

Agree.

But I sense there is a shit load going on behind scenes, both in and out. Look at amount of links in last 24 hours.....

The foreign journos definitely seem to get the news when the deals are nearly done, whereas the Alan Nixons and Alex Crooks of the world will just tweet out whatever a player's agent tells them to to drum up interest

We were linked with him before. At the same time we were linked with Evander.

Didn’t Dean Austin also seem to allude to us nearly signing a midfielder from the MLS in his latest interview?

I remember it seemed to correlate to last years Pereira rumours

Things starting to happen, there’s no way lampard wants to start the season with the current squad, getting hammered in friendlies sometimes isn’t a bad thing, shows what we’re missing

The journo reporting it is followed by Romano, suggesting he gets decent info. Remember watching his highlight vids when we were linked before and liked the look of him

CM is probably the last place where an upgrade is needed - but I'd take him

Would surely mean one of Eccles/Allen is off

His profile does seem similar to Hamer, aside from the goals.

Eccles to Stoke or Boro I reckon. Highly rated by both MR and AV.

Was going to say that. This is the top talent Austin said we missed out on.

I'd imagine Eccles would go, he would want more game time and Lampard doesn't seem to rate him.

I'd keep Allen for the experience in the squad. A decent player with a vast amount of experience in the league which will be helpful in a youngish squad.

Presumably, yes because the CM stock is a bit much now. You’d probably look to sell Eccles if there’s concrete interest and keep Allen as a back up. I’d expect Andrews to go out on loan again.

Sheaf, Grimes, Torp, Pereira and Allen/Andrews seem well balanced and enough cover to me.

You need 5 CMs if you’re playing 4-2-3-1 because as we seen last season, 1-2 injuries and you’re in trouble.

I think Lampard rates him, just not as much as Sheaf. One thing that was apparent in 23/24 and last season is that he’s too similar to our options.

If we sell him, it’s healthier for balancing the books too because at some point we need to consider FFP as our squad is one of the most expensive in the league.

Tbf to him he's made 133 appearance in a top-half Championship team & going into next season is 5th choice (6th if we sign this lad)

Got every right to push for first-team football somewhere else

Better sign him quick
