I highly suspect we are looking for another permanent. We appear to be looking at another couple of forward options too
I highly suspect we are looking for another permanent. We appear to be looking at another couple of forward options tooWell we’re having to pretty much recruit 3 strikers in this window too. Doyle and McNally were both in strong form, we were never really going to get Doyle back but the latter would have been nice.
Hopefully a permanent CB is in the pipeline this window if that’s our sticking point.
Kitching on a permanent would make me forget McNally.Well we’re having to pretty much recruit 3 strikers in this window too. Doyle and McNally were both in strong form, we were never really going to get Doyle back but the latter would have been nice.

Of course, and I can see why we turned down the loan. I was a bit puzzled he didn’t join permanently with the multiple hints he and Robins were dropping on that though.He would have been great but got a good feeling about Bobby Thomas and he belongs to us which is ideal.

Nothing puzzling. Burnley wanted too much money.Of course, and I can see why we turned down the loan. I was a bit puzzled he didn’t join permanently with the multiple hints he and Robins were dropping on that though.
Agreed!Kitching on a permanent would make me forget McNally.
The comments from both suggested something had been pre agreed.Nothing puzzling. Burnley wanted too much money.
Well things change. Burnley obviously decided they wanted more.The comments from both suggested something had been pre agreed.
I'm puzzled by the rush for Bashir Humphreys. Only played 12 professional games.Of course the assumption has been that any deal for Bashir Humphries would be a loan but we know that Chelsea are desperate to thin out their bloated squad and get the wage bill down so maybe a perm deal isn't out of the question?
@SaddlebrainsWhat about bnc back he would be good off the bench with fresh legs to rub at teams. Robins seems to like freshening up the wing backs during the games

Can’t see Arsenal wanting him to be a sub, nor the player wanting that either.What about bnc back he would be good off the bench with fresh legs to rub at teams. Robins seems to like freshening up the wing backs during the games

Imagine with Eccles sakamoto latibeaudiere and Burroughs he won't be rushing to sign a rwb
He’ll be most urgent on strikers and centre backsImagine with Eccles sakamoto latibeaudiere and Burroughs he won't be rushing to sign a rwb
Strikers and a replacement for Hamer if he leaves.He’ll be most urgent on strikers and centre backs

Ipswich fans seem to think it will likely be a loan. They have a good coach, but with Chaplin being their main attacking force I can't see them being higher than mid table.I think Burnley wanted over £4 million for him - the Ipswich rumour is pretty vague but they have money to spend - certainly don’t see them as relegation fodder this season
Agree that was probably a bit too steep combined with our other expenditures. Also would expect Ipswich to be top half this season.I think Burnley wanted over £4 million for him - the Ipswich rumour is pretty vague but they have money to spend - certainly don’t see them as relegation fodder this season
As he should be, don't see the value of a loan there now really.Was a thing weeks back, not sure it will happen with MVE now in. Wouldn't surprise me to see Burroughs given the chance to be the back up RWB full time
I was more referring to rubbing up the RWBs and freshening them up during games.Was a thing weeks back, not sure it will happen with MVE now in. Wouldn't surprise me to see Burroughs given the chance to be the back up RWB full time

Now we are allowed extra spaces on the bench. I'd hope that 3 of them would go to youth players such as Burroughs, Howley, Obikwu.Hope so, would be a shame if this window meant we pushed out the likes of Burroughs Eccles and Howley completely. Hopefully it just means we can blood them properly.
Oils himself up before a game, for that reason i'm outI don't remember him ever playing for Chelsea though....

At the moment we can have a bench of:I think we need: GK, CB, RWB, LWB, CM, AM, ST, ST for options. But some of those can be the same player, Palmer for example can play AM and ST, Sakamoto AM/RWB/LWB, Latibeaudiere CB/RWB/CM. So hopefully there’s still plenty of room for a couple of kids.
Perhaps controversial but I don’t see the point in having a keeper on the bench.I think we need: GK, CB, RWB, LWB, CM, AM, ST, ST for options.

Would be a point if the keeper gets injuredPerhaps controversial but I don’t see the point in having a keeper on the bench.
At the moment we can have a bench of:
Wilson/Collins
Binks?
Burroughs
Da Silva/Bidwell
Kelly
Dragus?
Godden
Obikwu
Think it’s 9 now so could have Howley there too.
In the past 20 years how many times have we needed to bring a keeper on?Would be a point if the keeper gets injured

We are allowed 9 subs, I think its extremely reasonable to have an extra keeper lol.In the past 20 years how many times have we needed to bring a keeper on?
You say that - but the only occasion I couldIn the past 20 years how many times have we needed to bring a keeper on?
