Who posts an updated squad list as incomings and outgoings happen? I reckon we now have 3 or 4 spare squad places right?

We currently have 2. Bassette was an U21 so he doesn't affect the 25 man EFL limit.

Really don’t know what to make of this window.

Given it closes in just over 5 hours, it’s highly unlikely without any credible links that there will be much more incomings other than Woolfenden. We don’t seem to have learnt from past mistakes and put all our eggs in one basket. Clearly funds are not an issue if we’re putting in bids of £10m+ for players so to leave us shorter than we were at the start of pre-season with some really underwhelming squad players is a little bit bemusing.

That said, if you had of offered me for us to own the CBS and make little signings, I’d probably take it.

I don’t think we are much stronger than last season which is also a shame as the league is there for the taking this season. All 3 relegated sides look to be struggling and Sheff Utd are in the mud. We may have missed a genuinely good opportunity to cement ourselves as a top two candidate.

How can a team that plays 433 have such little depth in wingers lol

To be fair can’t other players than the ones mentioned also play on the wings. Looking at KKH, MVE, Wright, BTA?

I like specialised wingers playing there personally. Not strikers and defenders.

Surely if we'd agreed a deal for Hughes, making him our record signing, that would have been a statement.

Yes but who’s out there that’s worth signing that would join us.

People like Emmanuel Dennis wouldn’t join us

Sheafs getting 3 years with another option on likely a big wage. Fair play to him if his injuries are causing concern.

You move Wright to the wings though, then you're left with Simms up top. Shit creek, paddle, you know the story

So if we confirm Wolfenden, we'll have the following so far this window:

Confirmed In:
Kaine Kesler Hayden - £4m
Miguel Angel Brau - Free
Carl Rushworth - Loan
Luke Woolfenden - £4m (apparently)
CBS Arena - £40m (??)


Confirmed Out:
Luis Binks - £2.5m
Brad Collins - Loan
Fabio Tavares - Free
Ben Sheaf - £6.5m
Norman Bassette - Loan

Have I missed anyone?

If it stays like that and we keep MVW, Haji etc, I'll class that as a decent window and would expect money to spend in January. Could do with another wide player.

Well if you want a winger, you could look at Nathan Redmond or Ox Chamberlain. Ben Mee as a fourth choice CB? Striker wise, could Bamford be worth a punt?

Tavares isn’t out on loan. He was released in the summer.

Yeah I know it wouldn’t be ideal at all, just thought to say it’s not as binary as it looks.

Sheaf's gone to fund Wolfenden. The Binks / rest of Sheaf money pays for KKH. It seems pretty neutral to me.

Probably/possibly MVE had been expected to raise big money, which would have created more possibilities in the window.

Sheaf confirmed 3 years + 1 year option as I'm typing. Now Wolfenden can sign...

Back to Bassette it seems we have a recall option in Jan. I thought there might be hidden detail in that, clearly that might trump the option to buy.
