Has he though? He flapped at every cross in to the box on Saturday like Collins and kicked every ball in to touch like Wilson. Hes made 1 good save v Hull. Even Wilson has 1 good save every 2 games in him.

Im not writing him off and really hope he comes good. But we can't claim he's "better than Wilson" after his showings so far.

yeah, he's looked far better than both Wilson and Collins.

I think he’d be a really good CB for us. Although imagine he’d want guarantees of playing time

he'd also need to play for a club willing to sell

there's someone telling us Rushworth may not be better than Wilson and Collins so don't believe all you read on here

In this case, not willing to sell probably just means stick in a higher offer.

Not too bothered about missing out on him, I fear we’re panicking slightly.

Yep, would much prefer Hughes. He is 27 and sits out most Ipswich games

We were linked with him in January which suggests he’s been a target for something rather than a late window panic.

I’d prefer Hughes but assume the cost would be lower.

Meanwhile Woofenden was in the prem for them and according to their fans did well (as well as any did lol). Might be more of the experience people bang the drum about.

At this point the biggest concern for me is we have clearly missed out on our 1st, 2nd, and possibly beyond, targets. Which means we're now appearing to scratch around trying to push things together. Not a nice position to be in. I could of course be wrong and he's been No1 target all summer, but find it highly unlikely.

We’ve been linked before. Is he a left sided centre half?

Quality signings are hard to get done, you cant just throw money at the problem we have. If nobody comes and nobody moves this window ill be surprised but honestly not shocked.

Nothing about this club shocks me anymore, its best to not overthink what Doug is doing. I just have learnt to trust his judgement as the outcomes are never really bad.

He played about 40 times in their promotion season and a decent amount in the PL.

He's not a bad player.

Chris Mepham is going to end up back in the championship. Wrexham were linked but can’t see it now they’ve signed Doyle. Not one I’d be overly excited about but might be an option.

Except we don’t have to replace a whole squad. No need to panic.

Mepham is a good cb who got promoted last season and has played quite a bit in the PL and at the top of this league.

What CBs would excite you?

Ipswich supporting brother in law thinks the fee will be around £6m, and that they would sell him, they've been trying to get another CB in as apparently he's told the club he wants game time. Not ITK by any means!!!

I just can’t shake Haji running him ragged at the CBS. Wouldn’t be against it but is he that much better than our current crop?

So this dispels the rumour that we had anyone lined up when we sold Binks

Looks like we're throwing a tonne of bids around hoping something will stick...

Disgrace really
