Southampton confirm Ben Brereton Diaz on a 4 year contract.

Do we get anything for this? Or just a pathetic £40k development fee or something?

Nope, signed for Norwich on a 4 year contract

We always seem to move at glacial pace with regards to transfers. The lad from Nantes must have been "Nearly done" for a good week now as well.

Will we play with wide forwards? Always sounded like JE wanted wingers?

Only issue is we will have loads of No.10's. Markanday, Sigurdsson, Ohashi, Weimann. No point in having 4 and then you can chuck Gilsenan in there as well.

Interesting, always thought he was a decent enough player, certainly at this level. Be Interesting to see if he gets a deal.

He's also saying Gueye and Ohashi in for medicals but interestingly, hasn't heard about 1 for Fadz.

Yep, agreed on all of those tbf

Sounds like we need some wingers who can cross now then. We'll also surely need a backup for this guy?

Forgot about Vale and Gent tbf but I discounted Fleck as he only played 15mins. Kept Koumetio because he was at least making the bench, so taking a place in the match day squad.

So far then: Out: Chrisene Fadz Ayari Wahlstedt Telalovic Szmodics Gallagher Koumetio Moran That's 9 players who have left since last season (assuming both Szmodics and Gallagher leave) In Ohashi (Szmodics replacement?) Gueye (Gallagher replacement) Fadz (Fadz replacement) Travis (not a new signing obviously, but back from loan) So we are still a good 5 players short of just hitting similar squad numbers to last season, which weren't enough.

Jackson reckons it's Ohashi and Fadz in for medicals today. The lad from Nantes later in the week. Poor stuff really. Neither Batth nor Cooper sound like they are coming either.

Being tipped to finish below a Wayne Rooney managed Plymouth Argyle is a pretty damning outlook for Rovers.

They should be good players for next seasons League One campaign (if they can stay fit) 👍

Nightmare for these 2. Seems like their careers will be blighted with injury. Not good, as it could very well see them tumble down the leagues.

😂😂 Sorry, said earlier that he would be stealing Unsall's info and trying to pass it off as his own. Should have said in the post.

And there it is, stealing Unsall's info. landed tonight, so medical tomorrow.

*Awaits Nathan Jones to copy all of Unsall's info and pass off as his own.

3? Interesting. Ohashi and the lad from Nantes must be 2.

I can't believe you have to write posts like these explaining stuff. It's mental.

No ones complaining about Gallagher leaving because of his ability (and then slating him), it's because we know he won't be replaced, or his replacement will be Jack Vale.

Wait, Is Nixon linking us to Ruddy again? He's already joined Newcastle and he's there to fill their homegrown quota. He's basically retired now. Newcastle won't be letting him go and he's probably happy to sit a season or 2 out on a decent wedge doing very little.

Has this been released from the club, via Nixon to try and appease the fans. Yesterday, Szmodics and Gallagher were leaving and we put out "a more senior" starting 11 that would be comically relegated from the championship. Now we're suddenly linked with 5 players, with fees involved and not a 38 year old in sight. Hard to imagine we'll sign any of them and the manager already confirmed that Gallagher is talking to another club so not sure why the suggestion is that we aren't keen on him leaving, especially when he also states how much we want in the same article.

😂😂😂 That must be one of the most deluded takes I've ever seen.
