We're gonna get a red card today. -

Pears, Dolan, Hedges are not good enough to be starting games regularly. All need taking out after today. Hyam heading into that category too. Batth should be ahead of him. -

Ref clearly seen saying offside. -

We've barely had a kick and been poor...but we should be 2-1 up. Don't think I've seen a worse offside decision. Great goal from Weimann. We need to improve second half or we will lose this one. Burnley aren't a patch on what there were 2 years ago but they're still one of the better teams in the league. -

After years and years of dismal windows, it feels good to be on the right end of one for a change. We've had an excellent window and without doubt our best one for a long time. Of course, no guarantees they will work out but I'm certainly more confident they will than the recruits we made last year. I think we push for play offs this year with that squad. Perhaps lacking a goalscorer but I think there's enough goals within the squad to offset that. -

Great signing! Cantwell and pacy left winger to go. -

Sorry, it was poorly worded. I meant they have been given little money to spend despite us bringing in a huge amount from player sales. -

Duberry and Cantwell all but done apparently. Excellent signings. The new recruitment team have pulled it out the bag this window. They've done very well inspite of very little money being made available from player sales. -

Pacy wingers on both wings and Cantwell as the playmaker. Very tasty. -

Solid signing and bags of championship experience. Adds some extra squad depth in CM but I don't think he's any better than what we already have. The signings tomorrow (if they happen!) could well be the game changers we need. -

If the GK turns out to be good then I think those 4 get us very close to top 6 if we stay relatively injury free. We have added lots of championship experience; some potential match winners in Ohashi, Cantwell, and Duberry; and a strong presence up top in Gueye. The championship is really weak this season so you don't need to be that great to do well. BUT none of those 4 players have signed yet. -

Anyone else getting nervous all these deals are gonna fall apart?! All apparently are very close to being done deals! We've been here before though. We get Baker, Duberry, Cantwell, and Toth in then we've had our best window for a long, long time. We'd be genuine top 6 contenders given the league is weak this year. If we can add a pacy left winger too then that would a bonus but I'd be very happy with the four above. -

I live in the Brighton area so I have heard lots about him in the local press and from Brighton fans. He's very good! Arsenal wanted to keep him which says everything. -

The Brighton guy would be a game changer imo. Turns us from a mid table team to play off contenders. I think he's that good. -

He did. Said it's all been agreed but there will be a "stringent" medical tomorrow given the wages involved. He also said the Hungarian GK is flying over tonight and he's heard good things about him. We have spoken to the Brighton guy but he's got a few options so we'll see. Also interested interested in Dembele even if we sign the Brighton guy, but price will have to drop. It could even be a loan. -

He's a top player therefore I don't see it happening. Cantwell and Duberry would turn us into a very good team. -

Cantwell incoming...if we remember to press send, of course. That's potentially our best signing of the window and a big coup. -

Travers, Rushworth et al were never realistic signings imo. They would cost good money on loan and there were other clubs after them. The common theme with all our signings is that they're cheap and no other clubs were in for them, maybe with the exception of Beck. It's shocking we cannot compete in the transfer market when we've raked in so much money. -

I'd be happy to have a punt on the Hungarian GK rather John Ruddy. Local media seem to rate him highly. Cantwell would be a top signing but let's see if we can get it done. Pacy winger and CM desperately needed too. But the glaring fact is that we have raked in a huge amount of money and spent none of basically. That's shameful. -

I think Cantwell would be a very good signing for us. Bags of talent but a poor attitude. Similar to Dembele. Both of those players have more talent than the vast majority of our current squad. I think this a very good home for those types of players and we have the right manager to get the best out of them. It's what we used to do in the good old days under Allardyce and Hughes. -

We all know we're gonna end up with Ruddy on loan -

Beck sounds like a very good player. But £40m in the bank and we are signing loan players and have spent a pittance. Thank you Venky's. -

Travers would be a good signing but I doubt it's true.
