No Jake Evans in the squad is somewhat disappointing. I really hope this isn't due to contract discussions.

Does seem like it teams are up against it but probably just assessing what the exact terms are and knowing when they can execute it.

That his release clause expires before our next league game so if he is off, it's surely by the weekend.

Which begs the question, why?

Absolutely average, marvelous.

Going Wolves for £15m, absolute scam

I'd say those are the ones we will not play as we look to get loans/move on.

Am I right in thinking, if we've breached 23/24 and the points deduction set by the IC and then handed down by the EFL, if we've also breached 24/25 that it's capped under EFL rules? Maybe that's why?

Wonder if we'd stand any chance of getting Sverre Nypan on loan for the season? He's already better than Championship class IMO, but not sure he'd get guaranteed football in the Prem as he would with us if El Khannouss went. Could be the perfect link up. Although no doubt ends up on loan at Girona.

Still got a feeling Heskey's son signs for us this summer.

He is very 50/50 is Okoli. Had some very strong performances where he blocks everything, covers the ground well and looks the exact defender our fan base appreciates. Then he has had games where he nutmegs himself, is all over the gaff and looks like he can't pass. He's not had a run of games to the extent we can measure what is par for the course with him but I'd sell if we can get our money back and some add ons.

He's very highly rated back in Italy, think it helps he's been included in a chunk of Italy senior squads in the last 12-18 months. I don't think we can expect much more than we paid for him but with some add ons and maybe a sell on, it's probably something we'd be open to. That said, he's likely on fairly modest wages by our standards.

I'll ask him

I'd be happy with that, if Mepham was only a couple of million. Although part of me thinks he's not massively better than Harry Souttar and therefore we could just bring a defender in on loan and finally see if Souttar works himself in to the team alongside Nelson long term.

How would you rate Motsi's ability and potential with Monga? Crazy we've two within a year of one another. Fingers crossed it pans out the way we hope with them.

Nelson is equally as good on the ball, quicker and more versatile too.

Behind the striker

No, was included for 23/24.

He's got a loan back to Italy or France written all over him.

You've missed the KDH sale too that was in 23/24 and yet we still breached.

No Braybrooke and Golding is hopefully a sign both are going on loan, unless they are in the squad for tomorrow night.

Unfamiliar with Christian Boothe, not sure if he's a new recruit or up from the U16s. Damian Machaka one to watch this season like Motsi.

Dennis Praet regen

Genuinely missed this news, my apologies. Explains why he's still there then 😂
