Still no closer to signing anyone, Palmer going seems odd unless we can bring in another.

Sounds like bollocks. When as MR ever let players throwing toys out the pram bother him.

Not ideal but I'd be happy with a loan to cover DM if it meant we didn't lose any 1st teamers.

We have obviously been trying but I'd rather not panic buy and just gamble on a loan. Should be enough our midfield isn't as bad as some make out.

It's a bit mad to have to remind people we bought this many, and about 16 in total over the last 12 months.

With Palmer gone I'm sure we have at least one signing lined up?!

Unless there really was an issue in the locker room and robins just wants rid no matter what

I quite like simms , but let's not pretend he's bagging tons in the league becaude he's not but he may well develop further this season .


Billing is proven , worth about 15-20 mill and would immediately improve us .. that was the point .

I personally think we lose simms we still score goals and win matches

Ffs we are talking about Billing not Foden …. You don’t swap your keading striker for a good midfielder.

No CM reinforcement and it's back to square one regarding depth. Same issues as the last two seasons.

This is just projecting though isn't it. Nobody knows what is going on they have plugged the leaks. It's just a load of divs stirring the pot. We heard little about Bassette and BTA until the deals were done or leaks came from other sources.

Let's just see what happens at 11

A fee for Palmer is good business. Getting nobody in midfield or at the back would be disappointing though.

Billing has played 65 times in the Premier league over the last 2 seasons scoring 9 goals from midfield .

He's 28 not 33 and would transform our midfield , Simms leaving would not IMHO make us any less a threat as we have Wright asante and bassette

Billing PLUS cash ? Just my opinion I'd take it

I've not really tried to do anything

Simms scored 13 league goals

This season he has 0

He has scored in just 9 of his 49 league appearances .

Gyokeres is far superior to simms , not even worth debating , or arguing about really

Where did I say that Simms was superior to Gyokeres? I used your exact statistical argument against you. That was the point. Not a comparison of the players themselves.

The issue we face, it’s that we have Sheaf this year, so ideally we needed to supplement the midfield adequately to have a real good go. Next season we will still have this CM problem, coupled with the fact we will have an extremely tough task to replace Sheaf.

Sure, but we're sorely lacking in quality midfield options especially now that Sheaf is out for God knows how long again. Not sure how we make the POs off the backs of Eccles, Torp and Allen at CM.

Ok. I don’t agree but that’s fine.

I suspect you have not watched that much of Billing this last 18 months.

All that did was suggest vik scored in 33% of our matches 1st season and over 40% second season

Very Decent figures

Exactly this, realistically we've lost O'Hare and Palmer. O'Hare missed nearly a season and a half and only had a brief purple patch when he returned. The way the majority on here moaned about Kasey then he'll be little loss. We have added Rudoni. So 1 down. I'm sure we'll get something over the line still time

We're not sorely lacking . We've been short of a quality CM/DM all summer .
And why does everyone not mention Rudoni ?

I'm keeping my powder dry until 11pm so I don't look like a reactionary lunatic, but clearly failure to bring in another CM would be something of a fuck up.

So you are talking about the second season now too to make your arguement?

I don't disagree about your view on the swap deal being better for us by the way. I just don't like people taking selective stats to back an argument.
