Assante has played at this level which Bassette, Rodriguez, and EMC haven’t

Maybe it's the work of the pundits, but it appears many of us feel this season presents a great opportunity for the club to go up. So now more than ever, many of us are hovering over club like expectant mothers regarding every move the recruitment team, DK and MR make. It's a great time to be a fan and I'm sure with that will also come heated discussions/debates about the fact that although we have 3 goalkeepers and 7-9 strikers/forwards/wingers, we are not sufficiently balanced/lack depth in midfield and defence. I'm fairly certain the team will know this and is working to address it, but we are cutting it pretty close.

If we are interested in premier league loans, it is unlikely to happen until the very end of the window.

But looking at the secrecy surrounding Bassette's signing anything could happen at any time.
I'm a little concerned that we might even lose 1 or 2, but fingers crossed we won't.

If you read through the entire conversation another guy was questioning my scouting knowledge (which is totally fine as I’m not a pro and don’t claim to be one) and I just presented my opinion as I don’t see anyone posting reports like I do (not that I’m doing a civil service or moving mountains). If you think “a good of a scout as you’ll get on here” is some sort of high praise or me finishing my self off, you’re a well and true dunce cap.

The sensible people on here appreciate your knowledge of the game. People like Clarky etc are just deliberately being obtuse to try and be ‘alternative’ or ‘edgy’, it’s sad really

Perhaps, but I’m glad it wasn’t to a fellow Championship rival. There was always speculation about his move over the last few windows and yet they held onto him.

I would love it if both of these happened:

How much it weakens them? That’s the 20M question I guess. They’ve apparently lost Ross Stewart and Nathan Broadhead in prior windows and not adequately replaced them according to their fans. So not sure what to make of this latest departure.

I actually think 20 mill for Clarke is a serious undervalue and they've let him go too cheap
