Simmops I know it most likely won't happen but we need to nab somebody like Rhian brewster or Connor Gallagher or Bukayo Saka. Both very good players Swansea an Arsenal youth player.


Think there’ll be a lot more loan deals around the leagues next season. Personally think trying for someone like Brewster is a no brainer, probably wouldn’t have a chance in hell but if you don’t ask you don’t get.

Of the current loanees at Reading, Ejaria is joining permanently and the only other two worth keeping (Pele and Miazga) are unaffordable without selling other players first.

Swift can also go for a good price (not sure what that price would be in thet market but at least it’s a couple of PL sides that are allegedly after him so bound to be sillier than average cash). Reading have too many of the same type of midfielder and I think Swift, though an excellent player, slows games down too much which creates half the problems for the team.

It's a shame as it's always a hindsight thing with these young PL loanees. Deffo somebody like Gallagher and Brewster would want actual game time for their own teams next season and they might get it. Suppose the fact that Swansea manager is the old England under 17 boss helps them as he will have so many connections as did Frank lampard at Derby when he got mount and tomori.

What good league 1 and 2 players are there we can get?

Sorry :?:

Well, he has one of the lowest pass successes, and highest dispossessed and unsuccessful touch ratings in the squad, with no league goals or assists and one of the lower key pass ratings.


Relax, we made an agreement that he wouldn’t say anything about Boye if I didn’t say anything about Meite (which I’ve stuck to for the most part :wink: )

I stuck to it for the most part too :lol:

Why would anyone want you not to praise our top scorer for the last two seasons and current PotS contender?

He was criticising him more often than necessary. This deal goes back a fair bit.

Nearly choked on my coffee there, an Arsenal first team regular is certain swap from a team in potential european action for a mid table chamopionship side.

10 assists and 5 goals, a lot of which were from left back in his first full season. Dude is more likely to move to Real Madrid than Reading.

I'm not saying him spefically for the one person crying here. Somebody like him and in hindsight he was nowhere near the first team at the beginning of the season and nor was greenwood.

Of bloody course Saka wouldn't come to us but there might be another player like him at the start of the season who would. Stop being so dense guys :lol:

Not specifically Saka...... But somebody like him in an academy, Paul Glatzel for example, who won't be near the first time like SAKA WASN'T at the start of the season. Obviously now he's way past our level, unless Arteta thinks that by giving him first team experience at a top team in our league like Forest or Preston every game would do his development good.

You know the phrase 'LIKE Saka' doesn't mean specifically him.

What about Harvey Elliot, or Neko Williams who Klopp would certainly want to get first team experience or any of Chelsea 9457283949 youth players?
