Plus if we sell THB it keeps our double barrelled name quota up.

On the basis that Downes and Jander are our first choice CMs, and will remain so after the window closes, then JWP and Bragg will be fine as back ups. I was a fan of JWP, I think he tried hard even when things went against us and his dead balls were key for us in the Prem, but while i know he is not the same player, I think in the Championship he still has something to offer and he would be comfortable here. Would I prefer better? Sure. But SR love an old boy returning, and he fits that. Depends on the cost though.

Does he spray wayward passes across the pitch that go to an attacking player for them to score? Probably not. Upgrade on Jack then. A low bar has been set amongst our CBs. I'm hoping he's more Jos Hooiveld than Danny Seaborne.

Probably just as well we didn't partner him with Anel then.

I'm going to pretend I'm ITK and say that you pronounce his name Key-ven not Kev-en so that people wrongly start following suit. 😎 Edit- might help my credibility if I typed it right.

Signed his brother Nico a few times on FM, who is excellent. I know nothing of Kevin apart from the fact he's probably the shit brother if we're signing him. Still, a CB. Can't be worse than what we have.... right!?

God we need some signings. 😎

Tonda out. 😜

Need a CM as good or better than Charles was, 2 CBs, one as good or better than THB, one that just has to be better than Jack, a back up keeper that is better than George Long. 4 signings that can make or break the window. (We could also improve RB, RW and striker but let's not be greedy eh) Not a lot of time to do all that business. Not going to happen is it...

Agree. Need fresh legs for the relegation battle.

God we need some signings.

God we need signings.

Nice from Leo. Need him at his best this season.

Smoke and mirrors. Smacks of Villa playing the "We're moving on from THB" card in the media when they want to unsettle him some more to get their deal. I hope we hold out for the right money, even though I do think he'll go this window. Been said, but the club don't want Ramsdale on big wages (sadly as him and Peretz would be a Premier League quality set of keepers) and Baz is, well, Baz. Shite. George Long HAS to be 3rd choice. We need better for a second keeper. Youngish. Whichever keeper we bring in had to be better than Long, I don't care how old he is. Imagine Peretz out for the season and Long becomes our first choice. Goodbye promotion. Long is the veteran. We need better. I like Matsuki, I don't like Fellows particularly, both are ok for the Championship but I think they can be improved upon. Mind you I also think that of both our FB positions. And CB. But that's just me being greedy. See above, IMO they'll be back. Of the two clubs that want him (so far), Villa have money. If we hold our urine until deadline day or close to it, they'll cave BUT we do need to bring in a replacement almost before he goes. That's why I think we'll sell in the next few days for slightly less, to give us a chance to get in a decent replacement. However this is SR we're talking about and they have never done things the sensible way. Yep but that'll do. Nobody seems to want him on a permanent, loan fee and wages off the bill will do. Agree. We just need time for the replacement. Apologies for lots of quotes. On holiday and the 19 Crimes red wine is flowing.
