Cantwell will need a buyer. He was available in the summer for next to nothing and I didn't see teams lining up to buy him. So far his performances not been worthy of a lot of interest so if he does go in the summer it will be for a similar fee we bought him for or for nothing getting his wage off the books

Probably not.Not if Travis and Tronstad are still here Baker will probably look for a club with more of a chance of starting We should be able to afford and attract better than Baker if they spent a few quid anyway (which they wont) and come summer we will down grade again

Yeah cus he has no other choice. Tronstad, Travis out Baker gone back That is why he will be wanting a midfielder

It isn't guesswork. If Stoke came in tomorrow morning and said to the club you can have Lewis Baker back but we want Buckley in return what do you think Eustace would say? I'd presume he would ask for Baker back due to the fact he put his trust in him to start games and left Buckley and Jrc on the bench

When was the last time Eustace gave JRC minutes in Central midfield? Chaddy If both Buckley and JRC where rated as good championship midfield options he would been giving then more minutes and giving Travis and Tronstad a bit of a breather by taking them off. It was Baker he picked when Travis was out He isn't going to be happy having to play his 4th and 5th choice midfielders

Travis and Tronstad have been two of our top performers. We have already seen a decline in results by just missing 1 of them Midfield has to be a priority now.Its just nonsense that you feel Buckley and Forshaw are adequate replacements A quality striker and winger will be no good to us with a powder puff midfield

Why can't we sell or loan Buckley or someone else and replace them with better

Sheffield United had a 25 man squad in and now are bringing in 5 players Middlesbrough had a 25 man squad and are now in for 2 players Burnley had a 25 man squad and have added Chaddy some of the players in our 25 man squad are not promotion chasing quality, they play minimally and an ambitious club with a decent budget would replace them, and leave them out the squad or sell/loan them If we only sign 2 players a winger and a striker and ignore midfield and left back we will fall away You can't expect us to have as good a second half of the season with two of the better midfielders in the league out and replaced by Buckley and Forshaw Surely you recognise that Buckley and Forshaw are nowhere near as good as Travis and Tronstad ffs

Is it not the same every year? If we had a decent budget then more players would be in. We have serious issues with injury and attack not clicking yet there seems to be little urgency whilst our rivals who don't have the injury issues we have are making moves. Plus apart from the fact we have made a bid for a player the head coach seems as in the dark as the fan base over when players are going to be signed. Get on with it before we find ourselves losing ground

Presumably Asante

Better than shrugging my shoulders and watching us slide down the table Protests etc would bring a little media attention We need them gone. Boro in for Travers and Whittaker.West Brom supposedly signing a lad from Belgium for 2.5 million

No I don't think we will I think Eustace would if he had the financial backing I rate Jrc but he plays minimally and if Sanderson or Carter or Eustace preferred options to fill in at rb when Brittain not available where does he play If Eustace rated Buckley higher he would have seen more minutes off the bench previous to Travis and Tronstad injuries

Dingles signed Shelvey

What difference would it make ti Waggott?He's not going to quit and venkys won't sack him. Yeah can't wait for Mr work experience Rudy to take over or maybe they will aim higher and bring Derek Shaw back

Whilst we wait for the scraps nobody else wants on deadline day

Or leave other players that ain't good enough out of the squad Like for example Forshaw, right fair enough a cheap signing who we could get that would be brought on to see out games etc or if he proved himself to be better than Buckley then fill in for Travis But with both first choice midfielders out a club set on promotion would invest in that area on better quality and leave forshaw out or look to loan or sell Buckley. Eustace doesn't see JRC as a central midfielder and if he is going to favour Sanderson or Carter at rb when Brittain is out/ need a rest then Jrc could be loaned/sold not given a space in squad if the club had ambition and where willing to spend a little money on putting together a squad that can sustain the good start of the season

Time to ramp up the pressure on the owners and direct any banners...chants...protests towards them Waggott would just be replaced by another person of similar ilk

Boro in for Travers and Whittaker according to sky and Nixon

He's been discussed multiple times on here Apparently was close to a loan here on deadline day but Fulham didn't sign a player so kept him

OK but it isn't for me Plenty of managers get it wrong over a player

Yeah but at least he was captain and started in this league regularly and in centre back terms is fairly young , and in fairness our defence hasn't been an issue this season We need a first choice winger, and Dembele wouldn't be a good signing for me.Certainly not a player to be "gutted" about not signing like some on here are

It's relevant in the fact Dembele was available for a reasonable fee but no established championship club took him. I don't know maybe it was the fact he couldn't get his place in a team relegated last season that put them off. Or maybe it was Mowbrays words about him not tracking back that put them off Just isn't a player worth being disappointed over not signing him imo

He was probably on 20k+ at Brum His career stats certainly don't suggest he is worthy of that contract. I suppose its a sign of where Venkys have taken us that people are acting distraught that we didn't sign him in the summer, and such a talent ended up at newly promoted Oxford instead

Wonder what the club have decided now with the running of the academy to make Jones seek a new club

How much of a wage js he on? I'm not convinced by him and being better than Hedges isn't big enough reason for me to sign him. Have you watched much of him?Having a good game against us doesn't make him the answer to our problems. The evidence is he loses his place at nearly every team,even Peterborough he spent time on their bench I also bet he will be on decent money wages wise, more money than the value he would bring to the 11
