Because they have first refusal on your rumoursNo. Said numerous times on here and Twitter it's Kyprianou we have first refusal on but no one wants to listen
He’s the same age as SakamotoI generally think Japanese players are great and highly underrated but isn’t Miyoshi getting on a bit for a winger? And we already have a fair few wingers? Good bench option, can’t see him starting over Haji, Saka, EMC that much though? I don’t think it’s a bad signing if it’s true, I just highly doubt it is.
In fact Sakamoto is 7 months olderHe’s the same age as Sakamoto

My opinion is with the new coaches settling in and an assistant yet to be brought in the club is evaluating what they have within the squad before triggering anything in the pipeline. Im sure no matter what a no1 GK and a FW will be signed, but other evaluation of the unknowns will play a part in ongoing negotiations.
Its going to take another few weeks which we have and a few friendlies to see all. Carr has been brought in to help develop the individual he will know by this week who can , who needs and who cant get to the level needed. This is all a process and foundations are being laid for success to come. But money being an issue for every club evaluation of players and where money needs to be invested is key to gaining success on the pitch. Be patient all comes to those who wait.
Any news ?A well reasoned post, but I would argue it's patently obvious even to fans that the minimum required are a GK, CB/RB, CM amd ST
I don't think the coaches would need to analyse anything to recognise that
I'd be surprised if we got that many players in , they might be required but does the club have the money ?Any news ?

Say we have an immense end to the window: Vik goes for €100M, Gus goes for €20M and we let one of the keepers go for £~500K. Netting us around £15mill.
We sign Browne, BTA, Dovin, Camera and an experienced CB at this level (just going off our rumours for players to bring in).
Where are we expecting to finish?
For me we have to be flirting with autos given the strength of the championship this season compared to recent years. Probably falling short and landing in the play offs.
Any news ?
Hopefully have some nuggets this evening or tomorrow morning

Doubt it now we've signed Rudoni. We've also no longer got the Chelsea youth link.Wonder if we might make a move for Swift again? Didn’t we want him last summer?
If its true that Dovin is done and dusted then that is sorted.
As for the other positions I'm not sure its as obvious as you suggest. At RB for instance there seems little point targetting a rival for MVE, as he is a certain starter, and we have Burroughs, Eccles and Latibeaudiere already at the club who can cover there if MVE gets injured. At CB we have Thomas, Binks, Lati & Kitching to fill 2 places in the team which also doesn't leave us short, while CM we have Sheaf, Eccles, Torp, Rudoni, Palmer competing for 3 starting places.
I do suspect we will bring another forward in however whether that be Thomas-Asante, Tyrese Campbell or someone not yet mentioned, and although we are covered at LB in terms of numbers with Bidwell and Dasilva, I do feel that is a position we could do with better quaility.
If the totality of the Rudoni fee is £2m Huddersfield must have an infant goat running their finances. Whole package likely to be around £5m in time. £1.7 Binks. Balance Rodrigues.Where the fuck you got 7 million from?
Rudoni 2
Rodrigues ain't gonna be more than a million
Binks 1.5
EMC Was January
I agree with all of this. I am particularly puzzled about why people think we need another right back. I'd say van Ewijk is our best player and we have Burroughs, Latibeaudiere and Eccles as back up. Maybe Dasilva will step up but left back seems our weakest position other than goalkeeper.If its true that Dovin is done and dusted then that is sorted.

With respect Burroughs is totally untried as an actual RB, Eccles should never play there and Lati is not really the same type of full back. We need a second specialist RB so that we can give MVE a break occassionally and also to challenge himI agree with all of this.

Not quite true is it he had a run there in 22-23?With respect Burroughs is totally untried as an actual RB, Eccles should never play there and Lati is not really the same type of full back. We need a second specialist RB so that we can give MVE a break occassionally and also to challenge him
As a wing back yes. He has never played in a back 4. Even Lincoln didnt play a 4 and he spent half the season on the benchNot quite true is it he had a run there in 22-23?
So you would rather play a key player out of position instead of signing an actual RB? Makes little sense to improve all areas of the squad except for that oneSaka can play there too.

MVE was shattered last season by playing every game. We need decent cover and competition.Id take a RB if one comes along in budget, I just think we can survive the odd game if we have to with a combo of Lats Eccles Burroughs and Saka.
tbf @Covcraig@bury post ya bird we haven't seen her in a while
Why would do we move our best wide attacker into a defensive full back role ?!?!?Saka can play there too.
I haven't gone at you? I was commenting on someone's comment on a tweet by Dawkins.
Are you okay? Really, because you have just gone off the deep end about something that has absolutely nothing to do with you.
If you are that thin skinned then take a break.
