Can’t say I’d be in the least bit satisfied if we shipped out BTA and brought in Sorba Thomas.

What's actually being suggested is Lati & BTA out for the Chelsea lad as a permanent signing which is a completely different scenario

One day you will make a positive comment after all of the consistent negativity and panic.

Today is not that day but here's hoping for a couple of positive comments if you can get out of the spiral of despair about the team.

Maybe sign off and enjoy yourself.

You really don’t. His scoring record throughout his career is poor and his all round play is Tavares level. He’s might come good but somehow people have memed him into the next Vik. BTA for all his faults was a solid 1 in 3 striker before he came here.

He is 20 , what career are we talking about

He’s not come off a BTEC construction course. He’s been playing first team football for four years.

Has been so disappointing, looks like he belongs in the league 1 just hasn't looked up to the standard, unfortunate really as he's meant to be a top lad personality wise. I am sick of seeing him jump out of challenges though, on that note I'd get rid asap

selling two experienced championship players for another 20 year old, on a squad already screaming out for leaders and experience would be a woeful decision.

Don’t get me wrong, i think Lati and BTA are both expendable- but any replacements NEED to bring the experience and leadership we are lacking

Agreed but we play with one striker and ideally a 10 but we don’t have a 10 so BTA runs around a lot.

You could sell BTA, retain wright, simms and Bassette for that single striker role and use some of the money to loan in a 10.
Click to expand...

could play Simms and Wright central strikers with EMC and Tats / Rapha / Bassette as wide forwards, 4-2-4

no need for a 10 and we utilise our many attack minded players

That's basically 4-4-2 but with even less defensive cover

100% right Becksy. Some of here have very short memories of how far we have progressed over the last 7 years. I now avoid this site after a loss as the usual Clowns (most who honestly have never even played for a pub team) kick off and do what they do best - abuse targeted players and the team.

If Lati and BTA do go then I think you will see us bring in a CM, a CB and a RB

People need to stop panicking, we are clearly trying to sign players and there is a long while to go in the window.

Realistically we aren't going down and we aren't going up but if we bring in players now even on loan we can start to play how FL wants us to play and that in turn makes it easier for us in the summer and the start of next season. As the system we want to play will already already be in place and we would then just have to plug new players in.

Bit disingenuous, his entire career spans 5300 minutes and that includes under 19s

33 goals

Fair. I’m just poking his fans. I’ve still not seen anything from him that puts him near the first team.

I'm told if they both go, that should give us the funds to PURCHASE the Chelsea CM.

Burroughs is being looked at as the Milan stand in until end of season, depending Lampards view

Shifting on then Tavares and Collins will mean we have funds to buy another player also
Click to expand...

Ignoring Collins as we're fine for keepers and ignoring Burroughs replacing Milan (not ideal), then that's 3 outfield players leaving and only 2 coming in?

We're quite a light squad as it is...we need more bodies through the door.

Especially experienced as despite his faults (and I think he's good player), Lati is apparently a decent person to have around and has a good bit of experience.

Based on the last few windows, I’m expecting to be underwhelmed and almost certainly we will end up lighter as a squad. There will be no CM that we’ve been trying to sign for many windows now, maybe this Chelsea kid… but he’ll be incredibly raw.
Happy to see Lati go and it’s a real shame about Asante so far, hasn’t worked out but please don’t do a classic Doug and let him go without bringing in someone else (aka Palmer).
