outstanding player. This would be excellent. Not quite the dynamic presence we still need, but this would almost pre empt sheaf going in summer.

He recently signed a 2 year extension so I suspect that must contain a favourable release clause.

This would be an astonishing signing, and as a bonus it would be so funny if we spent weeks being linked to Jamie Paterson only to suddenly announce Matt Grimes

Would be a great signing.

Comparison with Sheaf.

(though to be fair if you do a comparison of last season Sheaf is miles ahead).

Also his injury record is superb, particularly when compared to Sheaf.

In the last 6 seasons he's played all but 4 league games. Fucking 4!

272 out of 276 games, remarkable really.

He isn’t on Sheaf’s level let’s be real. A good player none the less

Gives us the option of two DMs to see out games when Sheaf is back too.

Where's the City tease? Won't believe it until I see a blurry photo of Grimes with a City scarf.

I wonder if Allen might leave? (despite how well he's done recently).

If Grimes comes in then we've got:

Grimes
Sheaf
Torp
Rudoni
Eccles
Allen

competing for 2 or 3 spots, depending on the formation.

Nice position to be in, but also seems like we're well overstocked.

I bet the club have forgotten how to do player signing announcements, it feels like it's been 9793454 years.

Hope this happens he is a very good player and will be a leader on and off the pitch. This will have to be a big fee and with that comes big wages. The other situation to watch is Allen if he gets extended and Grimes signs a few will definitely see the writing on the wall so to speak

If sheaf can be tempted to sign a 1 year extension, it will be Eccles let go.

If not, Sheaf will be gone in the summer

Even If this is the only signing it will have been a fantastic window. Great stuff that we have been working on getting a player in who is one of the best at this level in this position. Fingers crossed.

Expect this to be financed in the main by BTA going to Blackburn. They came back in for him yesterday. Slightly above what we paid for him

I would say that it would be a very good exchange to fill a position that needs strengthening

If it is Grimes, i know the talks with the agent have been going on for a long time, so there's a good probability the player is wanting the move.

If it's not a Homer's Enemy/The Enemy crossover-themed announcement then admin needs sacking imo

Let’s hope he’s pushing for it as well then should make negotiations easier. Would be a great signing.
