Would suggest no striker but if Timbe is as fast as some seem to think could be a tweak to our style?

Unfortunately, the players we need to shift are either ooc in the summer, on big money or both. No incentive for them to want to leave or any other club to sign them.

Who else is really excited about this then?! Rinomhota will surely be delighted, as will the other 6 or so adequately decent midfield options too

well other than playing time. Is Mannone really happy to sit on his backside for another 6 months?

There's a lot of u23 who could and should be loaned out - East, Burley, Howe, Medford-Smith, Frost etc

We have 8 defensive midfielders at the club?

If only we had a fast left winger. Preferably and African one.

The same one who has wanted to leave us each of the last 3 windows he has been here?

Tis but a joke. I was contemplating calling Timbe, Barrow light but I dont want to be accused of racism again.

When he's sitting on £30,000 a week with little hope of getting that anywhere else, yes. That's double what Minnesota offered him.

Here's an idea......why don't we sign a couple of Championship proven players ? They would make a great addition to our squad.

Its not quite as cut and dried as that though is it - We no doubt subsidised his wages last year and would probably end up doing so again sadly. I still reckon he'll go tomorrow
