I think we will.

Just hopefully not in the Kastaneer/Hilssner bargain bin.

I think it was asthma that hadn't been diagnosed before we signed him? As in "Christ this bloke's blowing hard, what's wrong with him, best do some proper tests, oh shit he's got asthma".

Yes I don't think he or the club were aware of it until an unexpected diagnosis

Apparently he's on £45k a week at Villa and they are looking for around £4m for him.

He's a handful on his day but he's also injury prone and averages a goal every 7 games.

is he? Christ he was useless when we played him last season. I just think mark robins would get the best out of him. Broken football again… mind you we do live in a world where Harry maguire was 80million quid. And someone paid it

The fact that Forest chose not to sign him after their promotion when they were splurging cash on literally everyone speaks volumes

I don't know them, but we should be looking into to se if any are quality:

List of foreign football players in the Netherlands - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

And elsewhere: Players abroad - Japan - Players - Soccerway

Ideally you'd go for someone who has played abroad already and proved adaptable.

Him and simms would already have that understanding as well so would be an exciting prospect. A lot of clubs will be in for him tho so we’d do well to get him.

Id be happy if any or a few of these were on the Robins go get um list...

Potential perm- McNally, Panzo, Creswell, Willock and Cannon

Potential loans- C Bradley, F Burns, Humphreys, Cuffy, C Patino, H Vale, B Doak, Emeran, J Hugill, M Burstow and O Hutchinson.

Cant see it but it would be good to get 1 or 2 more in by Saturday.

Another two by the weekend would be perfect, especially if one is a CB. Then hopefully we’ll start to see loans drop.

Wasn't Cresswell talking to Wolves? I still wouldn't mind looking at Kipre from the Baggies.

Didn't Hugill move to Rotherham last season - why would they want to loan him to us? Patino's form fell off a cliff at Blackpool last season (I know they don't have cliffs at Blackpool!)

He used to be alright but surely we are above this type of player now. Plus he’s 30 years old now so not likely to get any better

With him breaking into the first team end of last season, and Brighton playing in Europe. I can't see them letting him go. A shame as he's someone I would have loved here.

Yes he did at the back end of the season, I think due to injuries to a couple of their strikers but with a full squad and they have just splashed out on Joao Pedro and also got the very good youngster Evan Ferguson he might be pushed down the pecking order a bit. I’m sure they have been linked to another foreign striker too. It’s the type of loan I’d hope for rather than a youngster.

That Ferguson looks class, from the little I’ve seen of him.
