Why not just play Sanderson upfront?

At least we ruined PNE's cup final.

He's just scored for FC Nantes so I doubt he'll be coming here.

There's very little imagination in the Championship. Everyone is scrapping it out for the same players. We were linked to Cissoko (Plymouth and now Sheffield Weds), Youan (apparently Stoke), O'Brien (Swansea) and Danns (probably us to be honest as we love giving youngsters their first taste of men's football on loan... but also maybe Sunderland). I wouldn't be surprised if Mostafa Mohamed rocked up at Luton tomorrow.

We could afford it if we weren't restricting ourselves to a L1 budget. I don't think it's a wise use of resources though.

Low bar. For me it's someone who signs permanently, who would improve the starting XI who we can sell on for a major profit in a few years if we never realise promotion. Being better than Dolan, Pears and Hedges, for example, isn't difficult.

They don't even bother doing the medicals at Brockhall on deadline day - it's Manchester or London. Doubt it'll be a hive of activity tomorrow.

This is what any teams that loan him are in for - don't you remember the Liverpool nutters following Elliot's every touch when he was on loan here?

The Danns link is predictable. It's a massive gamble and another asset that we wouldn't own after the summer. He got bullied in the Champions League (yes I know) - so he's clearly not going to walk into the side and set the Championship on fire.

A very strong chance.

After 15 years of misery with these owners - yes .

He's 19 years old and has barely played senior football. If he's more worried about playing at Wembley than playing first team football for 6 months then he's never going to make it.

Nobody gets on Trafford's back for being a massive knobhead, so I can overlook this if he scores goals.

It's become too public, too many teams are interested and they want too much. We have a L1 budget - most of the Championship would be able to gazump us for his signature if they had the space in their squad. I suspect one of them will if he's determined to stay in Europe.

They had the 'thunder clap' going on in the Jack Walker Stand for the Burnley game. Was this the same guys?

We need a backup LB, a backup CM, a CF and a RW (and a GK if they refuse to play Toth), but we're obviously not getting much, if any, of that.

The fact they've said no to a loan move rules us out, sadly. That £3.6m will be earmarked for wages and stationery.

From the highlights I've just watched of him his style of play looks like Ronaldo (the actual one, not the Portuguese lad). Obviously not that level because he's the best player I've ever seen - but that's what I'm seeing.

Because Tronstad has probably been our best player this season and walks back into the team.

It's a balancing act though - short of bringing in a PL quality CM they're going to be third choice (unless you want to break up Tronstad and Travis). Is O'Brien going to want to be third choice? Is that a wise use of our resources considering he's on a reported £40k a week? We've got through the back-breaking part of the season now, where you have a game every 2-3 days. There's not as much need for rotation (a lack of which broke Travis and Tronstad). We need help at RW and CF more than anything - especially if Leonard is injured.

Spend a fortune every year to Boro.

Don't worry, Lampard will work his magic soon enough.

FFS. We needed two quick wide men to have any hope.

Genuinely an awful game of football, but I'm delighted Mowbray lost.

If Leonard has done his back we need another CF. Ohashi is weeks away and we don't have anyone else.
