Makama at Norwich. He won’t be available in January because they just signed him from Lincoln for £1m (proof there’s gems in the lower leagues), but he’s worth keeping an eye on.
 

He can play as a striker and number 10. 7 goal contributions this season so will probably hit double figures.

 

 

Met him (whilst on Lincoln’s Xmas do) in Dublin a year ago… seemed like a nice lad. 
 

Gerrim’in 😂

Norwich have lots of talent, should be trying to prize a few of their players away.

 

Jacob Wright is 20 and not getting much of a kick

He's no Sammy Braybrooke!  

 

I doubt they'd be looking to move him on after only half a season, especially after they only recently got rid of their manager.  New guy might come round to him.

[Bozman]

Aune Heggebo,, go get him....

[kingfox]

Abdallah Sima on loan from Lens.

 

Hardly played for them since joining in the summer.

 

Fatawu, Mavididi, Monga and Sima as our wing options for the rest of the season would be decent.

I wouldn't have thought so either but if we can pick him up - do it.

 

I really like Braybrooke but as I've said a few times, we have so little depth in midfield long term.

I shall never forgive him for scoring against us in the Europa League.  Traumatised.

 

 

 

Oh go on then.

[MPH]

Two Championship clubs are interested in Newcastle midfielder Alfie Harrison. 

The 20-year-old joined the club in February 2024 from Manchester City but has so far only featured for the U21 side.

His contract expires in the summer.
 

 

 

this is the sort of a deal we’d go for….

Wasn't he at Stoke and didn't get a kick? He's not really done anything since scoring one good goal in Europe a few years ago.

But is he any better than our current youngsters?  Probably not, baring in mind our u21 side is faring much better than Newcastles.

7 goals in 14 starts for Brest last season, 11 in 17 for Rangers prior to moving to France?

Ok fair enough that's more interesting than I was aware of. 

Beyond figures, is he any good? Have you raised his name because you've seen him play and his game is good as well as those numbers?

I wasn't the one who suggested him. I hadn't tracked him closely so  was surprised he's been very prolific for a wide player across a few different leagues. Would be a coup

He had productive enough loan spells at Angers, Rangers and Brest since that failed one at Stoke.

 

A loan until the end of the season would be worth a gamble. 
 

But looking around, there could be a lot of solid options available for loan in January. 

[kyleolly]

Wily Boly

Joel piroe 

[JimJams]

Soon to be 35 year old Willy Boly who barely got a kick in the last couple of seasons and is going Afcon?

Yeah fxxk that.

[pmcla26]

Not for January but in the summer would like to see us go for Danny Imray. On loan from Palace at Blackpool, flying full back.
 

At 22 think it’s unlikely Palace give him a chance now. 

[Chrysalis]

Connolly from Orient, 10k a week will sway him. 

 

Ideally though would prefer someone who has never been at an EPL club.

[Tuna]

New manager.

[coolhandfox]

LB, RB.

Dom Ballard is better and younger.

Don't think it matters who we want, it'll be a very quiet Jan

We need a seriously smart transfer window, but Leicester being smart holds little hope.
