Just saw the highlights on sky there great save by raya at the end there or as the commentary said Leeds were denied by rovers keeper peacock-farrell

Lose all sympathy for them when they just refuse to pay unwanted and players who have left money owed surely there should be some form of punishment for this behavior or can all clubs just do this now.

We keep going on about pacy wingers but it would seem to me TM likes to play strikers out wide cutting in to give goal threats.

We play with one striker and have Armstrong Graham Nuttall possibly Dack would work as a false 9 and Brereton looks like he's on the way. Where as smallwood does not look up to it and Reed is an upgrade on him so it's a good one.

Not really Reed improves our starting 11 as he's better than we currently have so it's in no way questionable.

Aye its easy to write that story now knowing it's 4 months before anything can be done. Not sure how you get Dack and Madison in the same team either.

He could do the Graham hold up roll or are we forgetting that's what we were @#/? on Brereton the other day for not being able to do this as we had no one who could if DG got hurt.

Maupay who got Brentford two goals tonight stamped on someone tonight let's hope he's banned for Sat

Need to get some players in now before the loan window closes we are down to the bare bones can't grumble about getting a point from 2 down with the injuries we have but how poor were reading and we nearly gifted them a win

I'd fancy that things like this have been looked at.

So what are people suggesting we should give up on the deal and try and convince 3 clubs to loan us cheaper players instead of the manager signing the one player that he wants.

It's a lot of money sure but it seems that TM sees something in the lad and wants to push the boat out for him I'm happy to let the manager pick his signings.

Not if you structure the loan to be permanent in Jan often a club has a number they accept for players it's about meeting it.

Thats just not true if you meet the valuation of a player they will accept payment which ever way it comes it's often taken out of the hands of managers if a club meets the valuation of a player.

So far until the loan window closes he could sign anyone.

What or who are you talking about?

If we are arguing you could say that Davenport played well at a higher level than Nolan ever has whilst he is 19 and Nolan is 26.

But it would not just be a loan would it you would pay a loan fee of what ever price and then the rest of the first part of the fee in Jan to make it permanent

Depends if our budget was upped later in the window seems to have been a shift lately.

It all depends when the actual window closes say we want Brereton and negotiate with Forest till deal is acceptable we could loan with a view to the signing becoming permanent in January for a fixed fee. This can be done with any player so the window is not actually closed.

I'd imagine Tony knows this.

That's a bit unfair he's also an outstanding author of crime fiction.

He's not Scottish. He is however proper northern so the rest of that still stands

Ojo would be good but seemingly Wba are after him for 15m proberly a bit out of our price range

Unless they just wanted the #kaseclosed hash
