I'm still falling on the side of that is a truly awful squad of players. I wouldn't even be confident of the majority of that squad being competitive in League One.

Hes on to you. Changed it.

Patrick Roberts to join Brum on loan from Sunderland. That's a proper winger and a clear signal of ambition. Sigh..

We would get ripped apart.

Newcastle fans saying Isak has destroyed his footballing reputation with everyone by forcing this move to Liverpool BUT Wissa and Gordon, who both did the same to force a move to Newcastle did it "respectfully" and there is no problem. They really have become the most insufferable, entitled fans in the land.

Doesn't look like Rovers are doing anything today. In which case, it's hard to not be concerned about the squad. One injury to Tronstad as others have said and we're in a bit of trouble in the middle of the pitch.

Totally agree…and, more importantly, it would give us a chance of survival..we’ve none with the current midfielders …Wrap Tronstad in cotton wool

He was sidelined here by a groin injury. Looks like he has a significant weakness there. It could well sink any prospect of a huge transfer fee any time soon.

Feel like getting Browne would really lift the mood...

If we don't get an midfielder in we should play 4-4-2 with Cantwell attacking mid and Tronstad defensive mid and with two strikers upfront.

Come on get Alan Browne in!

Or they've kept the transfer of a bloke with multiple international caps / a British passport who currently plays on the Continent incredibly quiet. I'd be impressed if that's the case.

Cantwell can not play in a midfield 2, its not his game and he has never done that before. He is better playing where he has been.

Surely Cantwell and Tronstad in midfield with Gudjohnsen and Ohashi up front

Maybe we should get a bingo card made up?

Looked like his groin which is a massive concern considering his history

Just waiting on that confirmation that Elliott Jackson has had it confirmed from the club that we are 100% done. Then we can enjoy the push of ignoring the gaps in the squad. Phrases like happy with the numbers, dont want to upset senior players and creating pathways can come out.

Yea he'll probably watch games at Ewood while he's injured!

At this stage, the only ones happening, both on a logistical & financial point, due to the points you mention, will be teenagers on loan from the Premier League

They'll be trying, but without those ESC places to play with and this hard £10k a week salary cap options will be very limited. Any of those targets from the Continent that would suit the above criteria would already be over for a medical (and those tend to leak out) so I suspect we're not going to sign anyone.

"I think around 10 million euros was mentioned by Slovakian media" according to someone on Reddit.

Not sure which is more depressing - a transfer deadline day shambles or one where we do nothing at all when it's clear we need 2 more players.

I wonder if there will be a future fee based on appearances or similar that sees them skirt around signing players for a fee

Stinks of an agent feeding frenzy doesn't it? Takes me back to the halcyon days of Paolo Jorge and Edinho jr.
