Cesare Casadei would be a shrewd loan

Told me Cov should sign Trevoh Chalobah on loan, Im not against that at all but I’ve got a feeling its tailored to Premier league teams only

It told me the same thing. They have 40+ players which is ridiculous. Surely they can let 1-2 go.

When he played against us but was quite decent as a whole. Can tell he will be a great player someday, already a good enough championship player.

Not a 10…not playing every 90 as a youngster coming on loan to the best team in the division is normal. Obviously not a world beater or else I wouldn’t even be talking about us signing him

A few said he wasn’t what we needed at the time, but my word I wished we had got Alan Browne. Indifferent start at Sunderland but miles better than what we have.

Said the opposite on Sky. Said they are light especially with Jesus injury and if they can do something they will. I live in hope.

Think they’re waiting on Nketiah leaving tbh.

3 things…

Sheaf endlessly linked with Ipswich this summer to no avail. No smoke without fire, have to think the club stood firm. Sunderland selling Clarke for 15 mill, boy we’ve come a long way.

Gyokeres and sporting the victims of the FFP regulation getting more teeth. This time last year he’d have been gone for 70 mill plus.

An experienced CM head like Alan Browne would have been the perfect signing.

So many questions going into the last week of the window.
Will we bring in the much-needed midfielder?
Will Vik and Gus move on giving us that sell on money?
Will any of our valuable assets get sold?
Will we bring in more than one player?

Intriguing if that’s the plan. The money has gone and we are now reliant on player sales and clauses to top up the budget

He plays as a 10.

he will no doubt end up a good player but he was poor last season and we don’t need a 10.

He is an 8 not a 10. Can play higher up but is a cm predominantly. Can also play DM.

I’m not sure why you are choosing to die on this hill but he’s not a CDM. Matesca said last season that he lacked the defensive qualities to play deeper.

He's not a DM. I never said he was. He is an 8. A DM is a 6.

Rated as one of the most promising Italian talents of his generation, Casadei has been described as a well-rounded and modern midfielder, who excels both physically and technically.[3][6][7] He can play on both sides in a three, four or five-man midfield trio, but also as an attacking midfielder, or even in the holding role.[4][10] Mainly a right-footed player, he's still quite comfortable with his weaker foot, too.[7]

Wikipedia has spoken, seems he could slot into CM quite easily

He has raw physical attributes to play well in the center of the park, got a hell of a shot on him and plays a progressive game overall.

You said he can also play DM.

I agree he has potential but I think our priority is a defensive minded midfield player who links the play like Matt Grimes, both another offensive player.

He can also play as a DM where he has before in the same way Torp can play AM or Van Ewijk RW, but he is predominantly a CM. I agree with everything you've said here barring the Casadei comments but it's all really just semantics at this point. We need a progressive defensive minded midfielder, and I think Casadei could be that for us in the case we're looking for a loan. I would rather someone else but what other loan options are there?

I think our best bet is a club who have been stockpiling players and even talented younger players know they need to leave on loan to get any minutes.

I don’t have any names but I will be amazed if we don’t sign someone … the Bassette signing has given me hope that if we are prepared to spend money on a back up striker we still have funds for an 8 or 6.
