I can see 1 CB, 1 CM, 1 attacking player. I think they will all be perm signings.

If the attacking player is permanent I'd be surprised, unless it's someone to develop. Feel like a stupidly quick wildcard on loan from an EPL club is what we'll get. Tavares, but not rubbish.

Hackney today for Boro was class. I know they rate him very highly, but an £8m bid might tempt them

This is going to sound ridiculous but my brother's friend lives down the road from an academy player. And he heard from said academy player's family that we're closing in on a £5m Brazilian midfielder who'll be Hamer's replacement.
Bear in mind the same source told my brother that Hamer would be leaving for Sheffield United for £15m a day before the journos got wind of it.

Take this with a big pinch of salt but this is what I've been told, as ridiculous as the story comes across.
If I end up being wrong then please don't shoot me. I don't claim to be an "ITK".

That would be great, we can use the Gus song for him. It wouldn’t be wasted.

Heard this too. Diego Gustavo, 19 and plays for Volendam in the Dutch first Division. Not claiming to be ITK. Just something I heard on the grapevine.

Interesting but he's valued at £25k, no chance we'd offer £5m.

He certainly doesn't look like he should cost £5m wonder if he's someone we are considering a punt on.

These could be 2 separate rumours. Not saying you're wrong but no way is this the 5 million boy.

In fairness before Gyokeres left transfermarkt said he was worth €8 million, the prices are so inflated now...

Exciting isn't it. 4 new players to join what's already a good squad. One of them will be Kitching you'd think and he'll slot perfectly in at LCB.

Don't think it's a given we'll pay what Barnsley are after if they've turned down £2.5 mill

Just the usual transfer dance isn't it. We probably know what they'd be willing to accept and we'll edge towards it.

The LCB is Kitching or Cashin from what i was told

The prem loan striker may now change given we got another 15million to throw around

Did a search on Transfermarkt and could be any of these - Transfermarkt - Advanced player search

Something tells me it's this lad though - Victor Hugo - Player profile 2023

Called Cashin after the Robins at Derby story. Would take either, reckon it’ll be a case of whoever we can get cheaper. Both sound decent TBH.

Even though you don’t know and it’s not, is the striker Archer? Please say it’s Archer.

The future is very bright , a whole squad of players that are pretty much ours , of higher quality and longer contracts .. with almost what I'm believing is the entire 35 million reinvested back into the club and squad ( Robins words on the gus money ) giving us the added ability to loan out more of our youngsters than ever before rather than have them linger and not properly develop in the fear we get an injury

If we don't gel quick and go up this year , you'd have to imagine we will be huge favourites to make a push next year

Left centre half is a priority for me, I thought Latibeaudiere looked a bit slow today. Was also clear that they need to gel more, a few times Fadz and Thomas pushed up the pitch and he was behind them.

Where was Howley today? Can't remember if on the bench or not. He has to go out on loan in my expert opinion
Click to expand...
I reckon your expert opinion is right.
Another, secondary effect, of signing good players is that it allows us to send our decent younger players out on loan, rather than them sitting on the bench.

Would want a LCB and a CM to add to that team plus a couple of options off the bench.

Wilson/Collins/Tyler
van Ewijk/[Sakamoto/Latibeaudiere/Eccles]
Dasilva/Bidwell
Fadz/Thomas/LCB/Latibeaudiere/Binks
CM/CM
Sheaf/Eccles/Kelly
O’Hare/Palmer/Sakamoto/Allen
Simms/Wright/Godden/AM-ST

Thats 24 plus kids. Let Howley go out on loan. Should be good for the season.
