But we didn't have these quarantine rules at that time did we? But you have move the goal posts to suit your own argument? But can't answer why there is such a drop off in transfers from overseas clubs? wonder why you can't? Did you know look at the figures provided? how do you know that there is no urgency going on at the club about transfers? source from inside the club or someone who worked at the club?

didn't know you were football agent or transfer expert? My apologises

I've been told he hasn't been training with us. Also nothing on line about him moving to a club in Middle East so far. i hope we bring him in.

are you sure he has been training with us?

Well you might want the player to come straight into the 1st team squad and trained with the squad. You aren't going to get like to like player to Adarabioyo. Lindsay would be decent signing. I would be loaning him with a view to permanent signing next summer if he performs. Aswell as signing another centre back. So what if he is ineligible for 2 games thats why you have a squad at your disposal. didn't stop Millwall signing Woods on loan from Stoke did he? Edwards won the Stanley Matthews award during his first season at Stoke. If Nyambe isn't re signing then we need a right back long term. Well we have no idea if we are looking at European centre back or who we have scouting in European competitions. No The quarantine reason isn't an excuse at all. If you look at many European incoming signings were made between this summer and last summer there is massive different. In last season summer transfer window, clubs made 45 signings from overseas clubs whither it was permanent or loans compare to this summer window which has seen only 15 transfer from overseas clubs. So why such a drop off in transfers from overseas clubs to us?

Jaquob Crooke is the Lancs Live reporter. Said yesterday that Sarr and Philips aren't targets anymore What you are overlooking is the quarantine period which is playing a part in any overseas signings whether its Premier League or Championship level signings. I wonder how many overseas signings have been made so far in the championship to date?

25k wages. Well above what we will pay But who says he cheap? Jaquob Crooke. Yesterday

Barely in mind the squad numbers that Stoke have where I believe that they have used 30 players this pre season. Lindsay played a friendly against Leeds where they won 3 nil and he played 83 minutes of the game. Also play 20 minutes against Shrewsbury in a 5-1 win. Stoke aren't going to get the 2 million pounds they paid for Lindsay back in this current financial climate. I would take him on loan with a view permanent signing next summer for 1 million pounds if he perform well. Also Stoke squad numbers so they are going have to reduce that wage bill and players within the 1st team squad. I would look to sign right back Tom Edwards from Stoke if we can agreed a deal. If ain't part of O'Neill long terms plans having prefer to be Collins a centre back in the right back slot.

but has anyone on here said they would? no. But we can't be over paying for players tho. We need players who fit into our wage structure and asking price is within our budget.

well you can look at that way or look at other way that others posters have highlighted that Norwich are spending due to PL cash, or 3 promoted teams strengthen their squad. And that cover over 3rd of the signings we have seen so far. Downing best midfielder? what about Travis and Evans partnership which results in wins mainly when they played together I believe, On Graham and Samuel leaving which you supported by the way as I did as we have players coming through who can fill their roles and we have moved Armstrong from a wide role to his best and natural position now and where he has performed his best for us. Using his pace and finishing ability now. Expecting 20 goals this season from him. Bournemouth squad ain't as good as you claim. Its very thin and with them losing 3 of their best players yet to come in Wilson signing for Newcastle probably signing for them tomorrow then King and Brooks will want out. Does Sam Sturridge and Dominic Solanke worry you? who going to play in goal? Archer or Travers? do you rate them Warnock has moaned about the players asking fee and wages demands being unrealistic. Have Brentford improve the squad if Watkins and Benrahma leave with only Toney coming in? Swansea lost Brewster, have he been replace? Cardiff have signed Moore is that improvement(unsure myself), Derby need players as yesterday proved and losing their 2 full backs in Boyle and Lowe to Sheffield United, Preston haven't sign anyone yet Watford are unknown and depending on what squad they have been end of the window. Bournemouth needs signings on a very thin squad but need money in and wages out of the club Forest, Millwall and Norwich have improved granted. well I gave a few stats on last season starts the well a good start can still mean going down in Charlton case or Brentford case who were 17th after 11 games and finished 3rd. Plus I also gave example of 3 teams who lost their 1st game but still top 6 and and vice versa with 3 teams winning their 1st game and finish top 6. We would all like a win1st game ideally

But I am talking this summer window not past windows which you are

Well looks see how Toney does 1st there. Different players to Watkins. We aren't panic buying players tho. But getting the best player we can for our budget. Panic buying would be over paying for players who arent worth the money

Watkins and Benrahma aren't in their Brentford team today. sign they are going. Watkins linked with Spurs today.

exactly. Plus it highlights that some clubs are struggling to bring players in at the minute to current club demands, players wages demands or agents demand. the Market will drop in terms of prices now for a few weeks before going back up like normal transfer windows. Norwich asking price for Lewis have drop by 4 or 5 million from the start of window according to media reports allowing Newcastle able to buy him.

Swap Brereton to the right and Rankin Costello to the left and that front 3 is one that should start.

Thats is less than 4 per team on average Bournemouth and Preston have made no signings so far Barnsley, Blackburn Rovers, Middlesbrough have made just 1 signing Brentford, Bristol City, Cardiff, Huddersfield, Reading, Watford have made 2 signings Stoke have made 3 signings Derby, Luton, Millwall has made 4 signings QPR, Sheffield Wednesday, Swansea have made 5 signings Birmingham, Forest, Rotherham, Wycombe has make 6 signings Coventry has made 8 signings Norwich has made 11 signings All info from here. https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/championship/transfers/wettbewerb/GB2

Newcastle bid for Cullum Wilson has been accepted by Bournemouth reported by several different media sources this morning So he's is on his way.

Norwich or Forest to win the league for me Wycombe, Rotherham and Coventry to go down. Did you still think Derby can finish even tho they are selling 2 of their best players in Boyle and Lowe to Sheffield United?

Bournemouth are bringing in Keeper Jordan Archer. Looks like their striker Wilson is off to Newcastle according to Media reports

well firstly thankyou. I'm not negative about our squad at all. We have squad of talent players and some exciting young players who I want to see more of in the 1st team going forward. Yes we need 4 signings but people going on Bournemouth team like their world beaters, they aren't. They have just signed keeper Archer and he played today but the reality is that their best player Wilson is leaving, King wants a move. Plus we have no idea how they will do under Tindall or his tactics going forward. I don't fear their team at all.

who knows? Bournemouth could lose Wilson and King this week. Wilson on his to Newcastle. Already agreed terms according to media so thats deal is almost done. King wont want to be in the championship. Plus we have no idea how they will perform under Tindall in his 1st team. Their squad isn't strong as you think it is. Murray's legs have gone. He be similar to Graham this season.

Thats why you play Buckley in that role if Holtby is injured

Bournemouth set to lose Wilson to Villa or Newcastle, King will move on shortly, Brooks will go. Loss Ramsdale to Sheffield United. Lerma, Billing and Rico might go. Both teams squad will have change alot by time the window ends.

wonder if Bond will come here number 2 after Button signed for WBA today

cos he might want to play and regain his place in the Scotland squad Plus other teams yet to make signings like Bournemouth and Watford. Majority of Championship clubs won't have all the signings they want before the 1st game just like most seasons which you overlook every time when we get into this debate. This isn't like playing Football manager. You have seen managers in Championship says they are looking for signings but its tough market at the minute and some agents and players are asking way too much and being unrealistic. Was Warnock wrong?
