Realistically we aren’t getting all of that Val has pretty much said cb transfer now back on the table again right winger always been on the cards and a cm anything beyond that now will be a bonus or from the loan market which he isn’t a fan of

Diangana wage demands likely will be an issue watmore meh would t be for me personally

I’d prefer a more attacking type but he does offer balance with Brittain (not likely he stays) the way Val plays so a good option to have particularly away from home but I agree I think right winger is a priority signing now

With no further first team players leaving we need right midfielder centre midfielder and cb if brittain goes another rb might need looked at (they might wait and revisit in Jan) can’t lose Travis or tronstad at this stage if we lose one we will need 2 more in the middle right winger is probably top priority hedges does all the dirty work but we need better we could likely do with another striker but I’d say that wouldn’t b top of the list but would be welcome

They are only words and ultimately it’s a results business and will be judged on the pitch but Vals interviews to date have been excellent l. Open honest and to the point

Not touchy at all merely stating on this forum it’s near identical to the batth signing last year and now he’s held in the highest regard mclaughlin isn’t spectacular by any means but he’s a solid signing in which we need he could replicate batth or he could underwhelm or he could completely flop time will tell just glad we have more experience in the team and a left footed centre back

‘Already seeing posts’ not specific to yours just a response in general don’t be so touchy and read it correctly you replied saying he started and they came 21st at least provide context if as you said you have checked

And yet only conceded 6 less than us and played 18 of the games at left back already seeing posts about downgrades etc let’s judge after a few games and I’m going to be like a broker record here but the same posters said the same about batth and now he’s put on a pedestal of course it’s a forum and things can be debated and put forward but you will think people will have learnt from last summer about pre judging players….clearly not

Good sensible and solid signing. Happy with that one

In the main we don’t tend to buy loan players

If someone with significant quality comes up and is available for loan it would be silly not to have a look at it. Can’t see any way come sept we haven’t filled one or two loan spots

Miller is injured

Then he gets injured what if he got injured during training?

Wouldn’t say clearly going to go he will only go when we get a fair fee for him so until then he should be available as normal

Age is irrelevant shall I repost your thoughts on that from last year mercer anyhow to respond to your original post de neve isn’t the weimann replacement as said so by val him self who directly compared him to Owen beck

Only quoting Val who directly compared him to beck

Probably took more money for one year and wanted 2 years with the less amount we would have been offering

It’s as well de neve isn’t the weimann replacement and is the Owen beck replacement then

Myers who is normally on the ball has stated it’s close - in the midst of the doom and gloom it’s certainly a signing I can get behind left footed can played centre back and left back if needed (although plenty of options there) experienced knows the league happy ‘if’ it happens

It’s as well the championship doesn’t be played out on paper then. Not many if any would have had Luton relegated last season and us and Millwall fighting for 6th

Loans are normally the end of the windows when the prem clubs have sorted their own transfers

Would be a great addition if true

I initially thought that myself but I can’t see him playing LOI seems there’s interest from EFL again though not what we ‘should’ be after

All underage football it’s not the same thought well of in Ireland but one for the future we need something for now

It’s rovers fits the current model big talk about him in Ireland but in no way shape or form should we have him as one of our first team signings - tyjon is the equivalent
