Losing Gueye is not a huge problem on the face of it, although of course Rovers letting him go when they're no longer able to bring someone else in other than potentially a free agent is just typical of the club these days. Gueye doesn't have the brain for football at championship level. A couple of promising performances last season gave some hope that he could learn the ropes and kick on, but he just hasn't....obviously not helped by the change in head coach and the fact that Ismael clearly doesn't want him. My question is who plays upfront if Ohashi and Gudjohnsen get injured? Tyjon??

I don't think so. Just like how there's no plan in letting Hyam go, just shift Miller into that role. I think the plan has always been two "senior" strikers and then Tyjon as third choice.

lets hope VI does a big Sam and asks the big Gueye if he ever played CB

If we're getting rid of Gueye we must have a free transfer lined up. Dennis has a (big) point to prove here, and has worked under Ismael before, so I think that's the best we can hope for. He can play in different roles offensively as well.

Looks like it's just a loan.

https://www.theguardian.com/football/2025/sep/05/dorking-fan-54-goalkeeper-injury-crisis Should we offer Pears to this lot, for the weekend? 😉

He has the ability though...Personally think it would be a low risk signing...Wages will be an issue mind.

Dennis has a higher ceiling, decent age so he only needs to put a few decent performances in and we'd make good profit on him next year.

Gueye is a waste of space, always has been. Would be losing a really poor striker. We could have done with a third striker but we have like at CB missed our chance there to get a reasonable option. Dennis though, did people watch the same player as me? Rubbish.

Gueye is nowhere near good enough but I would have waited until Jan. An injury to a striker and we're down to one option up top. Unless we're in the market for a free striker. Bamford or Dennis would be an upgrade.

I’m not that fussed if gueye goes tbh, other than we should have got another striker in before the window shut

Gueye would set some real records in the Turkish League. Records in the sense that with his positional awareness he may be the first man to play a game of football in both Asia and Europe at the same time at Istanbul away

Unpopular opinion, but if we got Dennis in for Gueye I would be happy. I imagine he'll be off to Saudi though.

Before he leaves, someone may want to tell him that they have the offside rule out there too...

Kocaelispor's record transfer spend is about £1.5m, way back in the year 2000... since then they've never spent over £700k on a player, but usually get them for way less or for free. Just for an idea of the peanuts we're likely to get for Gueye.

Absolute suicide, but hey it's all about saving cash.

So can Gueye still leave? Is the Turkish window still open?

Oh I'm sure there'll be someone else between Ismael and him 😂

Yeah this is correct. Looking at our squad though, the most I can see us registering is 23 and that includes Pears who might not be registered anyway.

Makhtar Gueye is offside so often, if he boarded a flight to Turkey, he'd probably end up sitting a row ahead of his assigned seat

Thing is the court case has been used as largely the reason this is happening now but way before it came to light we had the Lenihen, Nyambe, Rothwell saga's. Perhaps we are paying in a way for that now i'm sure if the owners were aware of it they can't have been happy with that at all, then there was BBD and 7 million and 4 years of coaching and wages flushed down the bog. Why is the shadowman still anywhere near the club ? Is this his way of trying to pay them back and atone for his errors ? If we listened back to some of Mowbray's hints in interviews towards the end of his reign they knew this was coming.

Each league season is treated in isolation not average that point itself is irrelevant Wrexham have broke all sorts of records in their spending and are buying good championship proven players but let’s bite - Adam Wharton went to palace what does that say about him? didn’t say he was ‘great’ but at this level he is very good a not sure why your underplaying his ability

I think it's a good move for him. I regularly watch NLN football and it's a good standard. In fact I saw Macclesfield at Southport a few weeks ago in a really good, competitive game played at a good tempo. Oh and also watching the game was one James Edmondson. Macclesfield are still part time so I guess Edmondson will still be training at Brockhall.

3-0 Watford. Good transfer window and kept all their best players
