What wages would he be on though? Two moves since he was with us and a new and (probably) improved contract extension at United. Wouldn't surprise me if he was on £10K a week.

Interesting that Nottingham Forest have recalled Jorge Grant from Luton today, be well worth throwing our names in for a loan enquiry.

Can play comfortably anywhere in midfield and chips in with goals.

It probably didn't help him posting about wanting to be in bed when he first went on trial with a photo of the MK Dons training place. Wasn't the best start.

Think it's going to be the conference for him.

Failed his drug test

I’m not sure we need another poacher/pacey/technical striker, it’s another target man or link player we need, so more the Leon Clarke type than the Hepburn-Murphy.

If Evans is a creative midfielder who can play on the wing or in the middle, then I’d say with him Bright and Thomas (plus Allessani as back up) we should be covered wingers wise.

If Ogogo isn’t going to be the player we expected then we potentially need another more defensive minded midfielder to cover for Kelly, as unfortunately Doyle detracts from our play. Although Shipley could do that job if needed.

 

[MatthewWallis]

Yeah think so. We’ll be linked with Agbonlahor on a free soon too

What do I win?

Hepburn Murphy may be going to Cambridge apparently according to the Sun journo who first reported our interest.

Rumours that Baka is a target for Pompey

Rumours that Baka is a target for Pompey

Not really proven himself prolific.

 

[Nick]

Not really proven himself prolific.

Best goals per minute in our squad by far! Worth £5m to anybody who wants him based on that.

Although I am not sure why Pompey would want to drop their strikers for him?

Let's hope their sights are accurate and the weaponry long range.

so who do we think this 'really big number' is that we've lined up?

It just says a player with good potential and ability doesn't it rather than making out he's a superstar.

 

[Deleted member 4439]

don't disagree - could simply be referring to his likely squad number...

I dont think it mentions the new player as a big number does it? It reads as if we have a big number of players so need to get some off the wage bill.

That's how I understood it, Nick.

 

[Nick]

Confirmed not the bloke from Everton!

 

[skybluegod]

Can defo expect a few out of the door:

Andreu
Allassani on loan
Ogogo (possibly)
Ponti back out on loan?
Thompson possibly?
Camwell
couple more of the u23's maybe?

 

[SkyBlueCRJ]

I can definitely see more of the U23s being shown the door given how many we have brought in over the course of the season.

 

[Irish Sky Blue]

Signing someone for the U23s from Swindon I hear.

Have you got a link or something you have been told?

I'd be stunned by this

Something I was told.

Any names?

yer both right - that was me, with me wishing thinking hat on again then

 

[robbiethemole]

are we lagging behind a bit here? Rochdale sign Wolves's Ebanks-Landel and Man U's Ethan Hamilton, Accy sign Middlesboro's Luke Armstrong and Blackpool sign Palace's Nya Kirby.
That's 3 strikers and a midfielder, do we have anyone looking for players cos all we got is two unproven youngsters, gets me a bit worried.

Are all those you’ve named proven? Enobakhare has played at a higher level than we’re currently competing at.

He’s on about the squad size when he says “we’ve got a big number”

Didn't somebody say we're hampered by FFP. I guess we're trying to move players out before more come in.

Ebanks-Landel is a defender / centre half
Ethan Hamilton has never played a competitive game
Luke Armstrong has played 6 times in Scottish League One
Nya Kirby has never played a league match

How proven / experienced are they compared to somebody who has played 41 games in the Championship and 6 in the SPL and can play in positions we need?

WUM?

Luke Armstrong- 10 goals in the National League- is that proven?

Ebanks-Landel- is a defender? A CB- our strongest position

Ethan Hamilton- Never played a senior game?

Kirby- Never played?

So they are all unproven youngsters?

Whereas barring Ebanks-Landel ( who as mentioned is a defender) Haven't played in the football league. Compared to Bright who has played at a top end championship club. If anything you should be happy.

 

[higgs]

Any idea who our second signing is and why can't we sign him asap?

Or the player is going to wear the number 99 shirt.
