Cantwell wouldn't need to be done today anyway would it? 

If we want to use him Europe then yes I think, well by the end of the week anyway.

Nope, got until 16th October to sign players from the Championship or below

 

So realistically if we do have a target in the Championship we can spend today just trying to get rid of the deadwood, then still plenty of time to get them if we want to

 

But as above, European squads have to be confirmed tomorrow so would also depend on if we want to include them in that

Nobody in, Slimani and Ghezzal out. 

 

Imagine Gray stays, Rodgers has said he's happy for him to stay and be impact, its Gray that wants to go but nobody wants him at the level he wants to play it.

Leeds are getting a winger from Rennes, so I can’t see them going after Gray as well

 

If he is going to a Prem team it has to be today, he can only go to Championship teams after today, this new domestic window you can’t deal with other Prem teams

Raphina? I cannot believe Rennes are selling him, they have a lot of money themselves and CL football. Just shows the pull of the PL, madness.

Would certainly strengthen the squad.

Although nothing will probably happen in terms of players coming in today, I think yesterday highlighted we are painfully short of creativity in midfield without Maddison and Praet. I'm not saying we should sign someone just for the sake of it, chances are we're not going to be missing both players at the same time for most of the season, but with the extra games this year it would be good to see someone signed to fill in and rotate. That way, hopefully, we shouldn't be too rigid with the extra option of changing tactics and formation, rather than trying to make do. 

Perez is quickly becoming a sort of utility player than unfortunately doesn't seem to excel in any one position.

I think every other position should be sorted, especially with Ricardo due back sooner rather than later

Impact player when Barnes tires in games, play instead of Maddison or Praet. 

 

I don't want to upset you on a Monday morning Ric, but I think they've also signed Jeremy Doku as his replacement lol

 

Edit: meant to quote re. Raphinha and Rennes - my bad

Looks like Rennes are signing that highly rated Doku to replace him

Would definitely take Cantwell - have we been linked?

We were linked at the end of last season but then nothing since.

We usually add three or four youth players per year and so far have signed Zach Scott and the French/Thai lad. Wouldn't be surprised to see one or two come in there today.

 

I'd be pleasantly surprised if anyone came in beyond a youth prospect for the u/23's or so. Beyond the usual Ghezzal out on loan, Slimani out and possibly Gray I don't think anything major will happen in the first team.

Do think we will sign a central midfielder it’s clear as daylight we need an attacking option when the likes of Praet / Maddison are missing we struggled, so maybe one more wouldn’t hurt us. 

No... you can't go out and buy expensive players just in case two players happen to get injured. It's just unlucky to lose two players in the same position.

JJ isn't cutting the mustard at LB.  We need a natural left footer there to overlap with Barnes.  Its been said that we may look to players that have perhaps lost their way a little after early promise.  With that in mind, i'd like to see us go in for Luke Shaw.  As poor as he's been for Utd especially yesterday, he has got ability and I think Utd has basically been a toxic pit for players the last few years.

 

They've just signed Telles so a loan with option to buy could be good business.

Shaw would cost loads and JJ is not the heir apparent to LB anyway, that’s Castagne.

I'd take Cantwell but desperately need another striker.

Vardy, Iheanacho and Perez is about as good as we're going to get. You may as well just keep Slimani if you need another striker, which he won't do. I expect next summer we'll go big on a striker.
