If we go back to 4 at the back, which I think we will, then he'll be first choice on the right.

We can all agree Allen has been a revelation on his return to the team. But he's not the long term solution

Yep. I don't see the logic of keeping him over Eccles (unless Eccles is unhappy and wants to move on to get more minutes).

Maybe this is where I’m wrong as I thought Grimes was the Sheaf replacement.

If we play double pivot then would say great but that would place Rudoni and Torp into the centre where I think they struggle to play as well as on the left and right of midfield

If Frank sees Grimes as higher up or if he can also great but if not it would us with an additional expensive player without the RB or RW we could do with this year

Lampard hinted in his interview about Grimes that he could use him a bit further forward, so it's by no means guaranteed what he'll be doing

Yeah said he was unlucky because of the change of formation.

If this is true I'm sure we'll hear more on this from Twitter Journos later or online today or early tomorrow as its Ajax involved

@Saddlebrains heard anything on Tahirovic coming in? Anyone potentially leaving to make way or Eccles pushing for a move?

He’s been first on when we change shape to a 541 as well

Not sure... selling your top striker at this stage of the season when you're involved in an incredibly tight playoff push is a hell of a risk. Iheanacho obviously has talent but is an enigma, not someone I'd be confident in relying on.

Boro flogging Latte Lath for 22.5 million and getting Iheanacho on loan from Sevilla is easily the best bit of business in Jan so far

Didn't they do this with Akpom after he was firing in goals?? and it didn't help them (or has the memory gone completely?)

They sold him at the end of the season. He played against us in the playoffs.

He could be on the radar for the summer of course

But let's look at it logically

We were aiming to get someone out for a fee this window, haven't, yet added grimes. So that's 3.5Million spent this window

We spent 13 Million in the summer with only Palmer going out for a fee, (1.2 Million I'm told)

So we are net 15.3 Million down this season

There is absolutely no way we bring anyone in for a fee now.

The summer will be different, Sheaf will be going for 7 or above, Vik will 100% move on so that's another 6 Million

Possibly, but Doug is a sensible businessman.

What if Sheaf doesn't get the interest he/we expect this summer? We've all agreed he's been woeful bar 2 or 3 games this season. The performances and injury record will have put off Premier league suitors I am 100% sure.

On his day he’s the best midfielder in the league, there will be Prem clubs + the clubs coming down looking at him

Oxford were rumoured with him for aloan. Quite possible we also try the same offer.

As I said, I don’t see why we are after him, but given the other stuff I was told, I’m still very confident about it. Also would love it to be right now as Saddles so sure it’s not happening (sorry Saddle)
