Hard to know for sure but if we do go down and Ipswich stay up that would probably be a major criticism at the end of the year. I'm not entirely sold on our transfer business at the moment - accept we have another week.

Can't disagree. We've also put a heck of a lot of pressure on Fernandes. He better be something special to use that much of our budget on him. We'll be expecting a lot of assists and chances created.

Pretty sure I'd already said similar. I accept we can't afford to spend that amount in our current situation. Still a shame though.

I know it's not really sensible for us to spend that much on o'riley but it's still a bit of a blow that many of the more 'exciting' signings have gone elsewhere. Ramsdale would be a coup undeniably but I would still like us to get an exciting attacking signing to give me more confidence that we will score enough to stay in this division.

I very much doubt that. Given His pedigree I don't think anyone else in the squad could argue that he deserves his money.

Interesting stat. Let's hope that changes soon!

Indeed. I have had a look around and I can't see many promising domestic strikers available for loan.

It's very likely that the new injury was caused by weakness from the old injury.

Oh god that's appaling.

Fixed it for you.

Unless there is loads of thunder or something I would say almost no chance.

If Armstrong got injured, who would be our alternative? Probably tells you where one of our biggest weaknesses in the squad is.

If our three main strikers get twenty or more goals between them they will have done very well.

If we can afford a player at 25 million plus then why wouldn't we have gone for o'riley?

Who would think otherwise?

Yeah I agree. We've done good business but not unbelievable. Maybe we could get one more attacking signing in to finish things off before the end of the window.

Agreed he's more of an ensemble character. Amusingly I've always viewed jenas as quite clean cut - presumably the bbc thought so too but as is proven time and time again public personas can be deceiving.

I quite like him. He's a pretty average pundit with a above average personality. Much better pundit than someone like Owen, jenas or sturridge.

You're gay sue? I hadn't realised.

How is the value of a part exchange player worked out for the purposes of FFP?

TBF he's only weak with long passing apparently because he never does it.

I love how people act like it's their personal money. Sports Republic can run their business however they feel fit. It's not like they haven't spent loads already this window.

At least someone like micah Richards has a personality and makes himself stand out. Jenas is just bland but speaks OK without some gangster accent.

Maybe Ramsdale on loan would give us enough extra cash to pay for someone like Clarke?
