Wolves fans seemed to think he was done, albeit that was at PL level

The name Suhail is Arabic in origin, the name Pasha is Persian in origin.

When was the last time we had a good transfer window?

The players we've lost over the summer have more combined Rovers appearances than the players we have left in the squad

When you expect nothing and still end up disappointed

Sell Hyam and spend the last couple of hours scrabbling around trying to find a PL kid on loan who no-one else has picked up yet. What's Billy Koumetio up to these days?

Probably also cost a decent amount more both in fee and wages. Meanwhile embargoed Hull are still managing to sign free players. Somehow convinced Leeds to release Gyabi a year early. Not sure how they've managed that.

We've signed quite a lot of new players, but how many do we think have actually improved the team?

You'd like to think we're close to getting someone else in if we're letting Leonard go

Sounds all set up for a failed appeal

That was in the second division. Then Go Ahead bought him.

Seems like a Leonard replacement. Young and with some potential. Did well a couple of seasons ago in the Dutch second division but half of his goals were penalties.

Forwards are stupidly expensive at the moment. Average players are going for crazy money at the top level. We may end up having to settle for Ohashi and Gueye.

For me it looks like the like button is not there but it's just very faint so I can still click on it

Alternatively it's going for proven Championship experience over gambling on cheap European punts to come good

More Rovers appearances in the Derby squad than in our first choice XI

What's happening with Garrett? Had a couple of awful loans last season but surely looks to have more about him than Montgomery.

F Probably not even all that rich. They're not one of the mega rich state owned clubs. They're owned by an American.

Just from looking at Soumano's stats from the last couple of seasons: 23/24: was on loan to a team that ended up relegated from Ligue 2. He had a good first half of the season, with 11 league goals before February, but then didn't score again until the final day. Never scored more than 1 in a game. Ended up with a goal every 224 minutes in the league. 24/25: back at Lorient who ended up getting promoted from Ligue 2. Only started 11 league games but came off the bench in most of the others. Scored 14 goals, mostly off the bench, which turned out to be a goal every 92 minutes.

Almost a full 11 of new signings. Not sure if we've improved overall though

Seems like a utility player than can fill in around the pitch

Can see it now, "Morishita signs for Bristol Rovers"

Are there actually any solid links to Morishita or has everyone jumped onto a rumour?

Don't loan options usually mean that the player has already agreed terms to a permanent deal? Just up to the club to finalise it at the end of the loan.
