It could be but like I said it depends what is meant by better position. I think everyone expects us to make some signings.

I'm not sure anything I've said there suggests any sort of doom? The words he used could have a number of interpretations and a better position is subjective.

Depends what his definition of much better position is is.

We would probably have not offered him a new contract so he would have been off.

Probably 5 but I'd agree. Not a prem squad.

Reckon we'd have maybe kept Armstrong. Otherwise I agree.

Kwp, Adams, Alcaraz, Bednarek, Downes. That's basically half our team. Would have left us with McCarthy Bree Stephens Woods? Manning Charles Smallbone Armstrong Edozie Aribo Mara Which is shite.

Woukd have been us had one game gone the wrong way. Yeah it's a bit shit that we will most likely go back down and can't really compete financially but at least we get another season and some breathing room to try again. If Leeds aren't up, this year then they are basically gone and are having their squad stripped of any existing talent.

Blimey. He really isn't worth that much.

Lallana is one of those signings that we may look back on once relegated and wonder what on earth we were thinking. I hope not but at the moment it is turning out like many feared it would. Might not even get ten games out of him this year which would mean he's simply taking up space in the squad.

Maybe we bid more knowing that we would have to sell at least one player before the end of the window to afford it. You would think for o'riley if he really does go for 25 million that we probably could afford it if it was realistic that he would come to us so you'd imagine he would prefer Atalanta

Didn't we bid 20 million for Liam Delap?

That's the type of person I thought we would go for. I'm not saying go for people we can't afford but we'd have to take a bit of a gamble maybe like BBD.

Very early days for them but if they don't go up then they are beyond screwed.

Where did you see this? I've seen nothing to say it's still on.

A pelle type signing is exactly what we need. Even a Rickie Lambert! I'm amazed we are going into the season with such little creativity and attacking talent.

We show interest in layers who are never going to sign for us and put in bids that aren't accepted. Any large bids we put in have been for appaling players.

Why haven't we signed a keeper and striker which everyone knows are our main positions since the start if the summer?

TBF a lot of it is just because they are Americans. Proper weird thing made about personalities of candidates rather than policies. I know personalities count for something but in America it's the most important thing above anything else and policies don't really matter to a lot of voters.

A heart condition doesn't mean he will neve play again either, it just might take a while to sort out which screws us for this window.

ABK heart problem and failed medical which means we have no money for transfers.

Officially not in the race right now for o'riley according to Martin. At least we have that official and can move on.

This is potentially catastrophic news for our need to strengthen. Hope ABK is OK as well of course.

I didn't say we'd get him but we obviously want one.

We were linked with the Greek guy yesterday.
