Che might not be 'pushing' for a move but he's certainly been manouvering for one by deciding not to re-sign. Tella I agree but we've already rejected a sizable opening bid for him so I think if he does go a replacement will already be factored in. Next 10 days or so should be very exciting.

Now if we can just pull off promotion there's a case for him to join permanently.

This is why we as fans don't make the transfer decisions 💀😂 Still remember his goal against Reading mind!

This Unuzni lad we've been linked with looks like a baller, crazy work ethic in some of his clips tracking back. Could be the option should Tella go?

Verbal agreement from Tella? looks like he might be on his way. Thank god we've got Sam Amo waiting in the wings. (No pun intended!)

The lad was all over the park and man of the match...

I thought we showed a bit of grit that's been missing for 3-4 seasons. We were the better team today. Some poor defensive errors still but deserved the points. Arma's been a revelation this season, workrate is incredible.

Russ has mentioned him by name twice now, including this morning. Man's professional enough to not do that unless he knows it's concrete.

Russ seemed really relaxed when asked about incomings during the Plymouth presser. Said there are 1 or 2 that will be in very soon (We know one of them is Downes obviously) and that there is a lot more that they are working on. I think there's a lot more going on that we aren't privvy to as seemed to be the case with Charles and Manning being completed quite quickly after any sniff about them got leaked and I think we can only really judge the window when it's closed.

I don't think anyone with a read on Rasmus and the philosophy he brings thought we would stop being a selling club. Look at Brighton or Brentford, that's the financial model we're chasing. Being a selling club works to the club's advantage if managed well. As far as financial stability is concerned from the CEO it's refreshing to hear that transparently from him given the last time we didn't give focus to the club's financial management we ended up in league one. At the end of the day, as long as Wilcox continues to recruit in line with his proven track record we will continue to buy young talent, develop them with us and sell high. As long as the production line doesn't stop it's sustainable. The vision is clearer then it's been in years in my opinion, that doesn't mean you have to agree with it mind.

The thing that pleases me the most in this latest press conference is that he had a plan for every player and had honest conversations with everyone about their roles between now and the end of the season. With a squad of 30 players this would have been really important in setting expectations and managing those personalities. It does look like we might not see much of Sam Edozie, Aribo etc. as they were in the B team and likely out of the squad for a bit but it does mean he has a good idea of his best 11/Matchday squad. This has been the most inconsistent aspect of the season to me, with constant changes to personnel and shape so let’s hope he knows this squad better than us and gets them playing the way he wants! I thought our season was dead and buried after Wolves. Now I’ve got SOME hope no matter how small… 😅
