Do you reckon we will put in a bid for Sheaf?

I don't know, Just an enquiry at this stage.

Would make Charles omission last Saturday a little more understandable I guess.

Really???? Guaranteed we have made some ridiculous transfers but really???

Mark Robins has revealed that Coventry Cityโ€™s influential midfielder Ben Sheaf is not as close to a return as it had been previously believed.

The newly confirmedย Sky Bluesย club captain has been sidelined since he limped off with an ankle injury just minutes after going on midway through the second half against Stevenage in last monthโ€™s pre-season friendly against the League One club. That forced him to sit out the three warm-up games against Darmstadt, Everton and Werder Bremen.

Itโ€™s now emerged that the 26-year-old has been recovering from ligament damage that Robins admitted after Saturdayโ€™s opening 1-0 defeat atย Stokeย is a โ€œfairly badโ€ injury.

Well if we do sign him, he had better be decent. If he turns out to be shit then I might have to change my username.

wow, wonder what's happened there. He was first choice last season. If we can get it done we should be all over that, although i suspect other clubs will be as well.

I flagged the Polish keeper as a possible weeks back but it looked like he was going Saudi. Wages are mental and he probably would not join Saints - even if we did give him his โ‚ฌ6.5m per annum plus welcome bonus.๐Ÿซฃ

He seems to have gone off the rails somehow so itโ€™s probably a non starter. But yeah. If mentally and physically fit heโ€™d still be top ten goalies in EPL or better.ย

DM coming in on loan, That frees up Shea Charles to Celtic.
ABK announcement of his imminent departure is close, those funds allow us to pursue MoR.

We strengthen two fold by bringing in a better DM and MoR.

Brownhill crumbled when pitted against a good press last season, so based on that I'd have to say no. Alife Doughty I didn't watch enough of but I think he'd improve on what we have at left-back currently.ย

That's got a whiff of Kelvin Davis > Boruc all over it. We get to the 31st without a new keeper, it's evidently obvious we should have strengthened, and out pops Szczesny on a free transfer after deadline day.

A nice plan, but will it materialise? Or, like the monkey-chicken-petting-zoo, will it evaporate into the ether?

Love the theory and prospect of that - Except imo Oโ€™Riley will go to Atalanta.
ย 

Looks like the player Sale they need to make is finally going through with Juve - for Koopmeiners @ c โ‚ฌ55m. As per Italian social media.ย 

We wonโ€™t outbid Atalanta - and apparently he has made it very clear heโ€™s happy to join them. Quite how theyโ€™d know that Ive no idea but itโ€™s been oft repeated in Italian press.
ย 

Maybe not getting Oโ€™Riley means Tyler especially and Charlie ( 2nd time around) will get their EPL chance this season - so letโ€™s be positive!ย

Seems rather improbable. 12 million isn't really close to getting o'riley is it. As leg said Atalanta will soon be able to outbid us easily.ย

Ipswich have appointed Matt Holland to their board of directors. Another deal where we pissed around and took too long over the medicalย :wave:

Didn't we offer ยฃ15m for Carvalho a week or so ago though? If we had the money ready to go to make a ยฃ15m signing, then in theory you can budget the ยฃ12m for ABK to that and then you have ยฃ27m? (fully appreciate I may be overly simplistic with this)

Martin said we would bid if something came up but that doesn't mean we wouldn't have to sell.ย

That was my first thought too.ย  Could be coincidence but since Charles got linked with a loan move we seem to have been linked with a few DMs - Skipp, Sheaf and mandela Keita.

Add to that Shea Charles had a "Rest" too on Saturday too.. I think something is in the offing.

Every time I watch Skipp Iโ€™m impressed by him - if he gets a good run in a team like ours I think heโ€™d do well. Iโ€™d be happy with this if it comes offย

Yeah he's a good player who could thrive if played regularly, a good passer of the ball and physical to add to it. I remember his season with Norwich in the Champ, he was unbelievable at that level - literally ran games on his own. He doesn't look out of place at Spurs either, so I'd be surprised if they do palm him off - but I'd be grabbing him if he was available.

These are the sorts of loans that will become possible as we go into the next couple of weeks.

Yep. Players like Skipp are generally on the periphery of teams like Spurs and (one would assume) that there comes a point where you have to make a decision as to whether you want to play all the time for a smaller club or 30 minutes a month.ย 

I recon he'd fit in brilliantly.ย

The plot thickens.Italian media says Atalanta just swooped in at last minute to sign Marco Brescianini on a loan with obligation to buy. ยฃ1m and ยฃ11m. Versatile cmf. 6ft+. Supposedly a cover for when koopmeiners leaves. ย But thatโ€™s meant to be Oโ€™Riley. Unless they want two? Or unless they ditching project o Riley leaving him to us?ย

We have about ยฃ15m on top of that - hence the original bids...ย
