good to see high transfer fees filtering back down the lower leagues...
will help to sustain clubs and infrastructure for our future visits....

Who will Matt Grimes be playing for ?

Well we signed Aasgaard over night then. Impressed with him as a player individually but not sure of the fit here. Doesnt also seem to fit with the Naismith signing either because he was always best as a LCB in a back 3, and if we are going to a back 3 again, the need for a winger/attacking midfield type is very much less. We tried it with Chong and it’s never worked in that shape. Can’t quite see the plan there at the moment - will be interested to see how Bloomfield looks to puzzle it together

Be interested to see how much that costs if it happens. As close to a “Ross Barkley” replacement as you’re likely to get at championship level - always been very impressed with him. We would never be on the picture now I don’t think with our current position but in the summer he’s one we could/should have kicked the tyres on.

Kian Best gone from England U19s and being around our first 11, to going on loan to Bohemians in Ireland. Supposedly has a stinking attitude and his fitness is crap. What a waste if he ends up not making it.

Few rumours that Tom Krauss is heading back to Germany with his loan cut short.

Not quite sure what to make of him, I think he’s a decent player in a bad situation, one of the biggest issues of the season has been that balance in midfield. He has individually done ok at times but it’s clearly not working in there on a collective level and therefore him going provides a spot for some freshening up

Getting a keeper in it seems.

Just need a left back , central midfielder and striker too .

Don’t think Udinese can give us all 4!

Close to signing Cohen Brammell from Rotherham. Not going to play much, but back for Ogivile at LB. Also trying to do a deal with Sunderland to sign Adil Aouchiche? Was a potential teenage prodigy at PSG. Never really worked out. Sunderland fans seem split on him as when he's played he's done well, but unable to force his way in to the squad. Looks like he's out competition for the number 10 place. Just need another winger and maybe a creative central midfielder especially if Moxon is potentially being loaned out

Krauss gone back to Germany. I thought he was ok and the fact it’s kind of failed is likely more due to us than it is him, but you could sort of see his frustrations mounting.

Midfield has been the problem area for us and I wonder if we will be in for another midfield player with him going or we see Fanne as the answer there now.

Stuart Armstrong close to being done apparently, will offer some cracking cover in midfield for the rest of the season, now just a LB, LCB and a striker......
