Other targets for the positions we need, might not be available right now. I’m sure we will sign players in those positions before the end of the window.

Uncut gems don’t always hit the ground running straight away, if at all. Skipp is young with good Premier League experience at a top 6 club.

He’s definitely not better than those two. They are Premier League quality players. Albrighton couldn’t play a game for us in the Championship or West Brom the season before.

Sensi levels of madness in here! We haven’t even played a proper match yet or finished signing players this window. Come back in a month and let’s see how things are then.

I'll reserve my judgement until we play a proper match. Very poor pre-season, but you don't get any points in these matches. We need signings and I'm hoping we'll look a different team come the end of the month.

Good job it was in a game that meant nothing!

It's not criminal if Alves isn't going to feature much this season. Cooper would be a decent judge of young players and sees him enough in training.

Buonanotte is far more developed than Alves, so is currently a much better first team option. We need to do whatever we can to try and stay up.

I’ve seen a few performances below 6.5!

We aren't a basket case at all. People on FoxesTalk just love these kind of comments from the agent, but in reality we would be very attractive still for many players.

If he helped us stay up, then yes it would be well worth it.

He wouldn't sign a one year deal.

I'm pretty sure the plan will be to stay up this season and then it will get easier to rebuild further after that. Ayew will likely be a better player for us this season than many other younger options out there.

I wouldn't.

He started 30 league matches last season. He's not awful.

We need to do whatever we can to stay up this season. If he's better than our own academy players, then I'd rather have him than not.

I’m sure the signings will come before the end of the window, but no doubt some tricky decisions to make. Do you wait for your first or second choices in a position or buy your third choice now etc.

How about the fact that some fans just want to look forward to the season ahead after winning the Championship, rather than have endless negative posts before a ball has even been kicked?

No other Premier League club has that ideal vision and identity that you are looking for, so we are not alone.

That all sounds lovely, but it's a whole different world to the Premier League.

It would cost us a lot more to buy two players of the same quality as those two.

He would have been a decent signing for us on a free two years ago. The type of hard working, versatile player that could have kept us up.

Good, solid signing on a free. I know a Fulham season ticket holder that speaks very well of him.

We are in a new financial year now, so there will be a certain amount of money available to spend. I assume it will be a mixture of trying to find some players for a low fee/out of contract and then spending a higher amount on others. The new shirt sponsor will also free up some money for transfers. If we end up needing to sell a player or two next summer to keep within the rules, then we would have time.

Yes, in an ideal world I would have a local business on the shirts like Walkers. However a few extra million or whatever in sponsorship equates to more money being available to strengthen the squad. I'm more interested in what happens on the pitch than the name of a sponsor.
