Paterson should be playing tomorrow. If he doesn't then I'd say that's gone tits
Schlupp I've heard nothing

We are after a central midfielder but it's not that Cundle

It's Millwall that appear to be chasing Cundle.

So Rangers priced us out basically

Hope this doesn’t turn out to be another window where we chase loads of players and miss out on all of them.

Thats if the 28 is correct. I thought that was too precise tbh

If there are any between about 27 and 29 that have played 300 plus games then fair play to those who find them

I'm assuming its a bit of a game of chicken with Rangers now. They may come back to the table, but then someone might come in and offer the extras that they want while we are waiting.

Wouldn’t be surprised if it’s Swift. Be a decent signing.

didn’t he turn us down when we moved for him before though?

Swift would not be a good pick up imo. Average at best for wba on very high wages, thier fans happy to get shot. We’ve got far greater needs than a john swift type.

You’re not selecting the team. If you want to play 4-3-3/4-2-3-1 and you don’t have the personnel available to do that, it’s a problem.

5-3-2 has served a purpose and given us balance against tough opposition. That said, we have 3 quality players that are wingers in EMC, Wright and Sakamoto.

Lampard may want to play a 3-4-3 if he likes the 3 CB and WB shape. He doesn’t have the personnel to do that either.

That's fair enough but you've got to think long term and we already have 2 top players in that position. Getting another in just makes the squad even more unbalanced when everyone is fit and at the moment we are performing better in his unfavoured formation. Fair enough if he can play more than one position but people said that of EMC.

Wright was apparently telling people he would be back early Feb. We just bring in this guy and MvE gets injured against Leeds we have 3 left wingers, no right back. What if Tats gets injured, CM, LB, CB? There are loads of places I would look first.

I think a CM is more pressing anyway so I’m not too downbeat about Rabbi.

LW is fine once Haji and EMC are back.
RW maybe a little more of an issue

To me it sounds like DK has been trying to inflate the promotion bonus to get away from paying a big chunk upfront (if he signs on a perm that is)

28 year old midfielders in the championship

Jordan Thompson
Kasey Palmer
Joe Williams
Dan Barlaser
Tatsu Sakamoto
Ben Whiteman
Josh Brownhill


At a guess I'd say Barlaser or Whiteman
Click to expand...

Neither has made 300 appearances as far as I'm aware.

Matt Grimes? He's 29 though but has made 300 appearances for Swansea
