The cupboard is looking pretty bare in that respect. We have Vvd of course then maybe Romeu and possibly Boufal if he meets the heights it's been indicated he might. After that I don't see any players that are going to be attracting the attention of the top 6 teams. The academy conveyor belt has run pretty dry as well. But who's to say that with further investment from the Chinese or elsewhere then we might move away from the 'self-sustaining' model in the future.

I know the club like to adopt a stealth approach to new signings but that's taking it a step too far.

What happened to the 'off the radar' CB signing you mentioned a few days ago?

I'm struggling to get to grips with what your definition of "high profile" is?

Les is going to take his big white flag he was waving last night.

I think he was playing Fantasy Director of Football on his Spectrum and lost track of time. Easily done. From the OS...Les Reed: "With Jay Rodriguez, Shane Long and Nathan Redmond all in good form..."

Err, did nobody tell him?

He was our no.1 target all along.

I'm sure we'll still be 9th come the 11pm deadline whether we sign a CB or not.

urning Les is turning into the Chemical Ali of the Premier League.

There should be lots of interesting possibilities.

Even if we don't get a CB at least we can be comforted by having the best midfield options in the league.

I take it we're not 9th anymore?

South Today said Sunderland bid for him today.

Good try. It was crystal clear what he meant or he wouldn't have made the comment or anything similar or similar wording. He would have just said he can go when we're ready for him to go or whatever.

Les said he would be replaced. Keep Calm and Trust in Les.

Merson going for a Swans win as well.

Having just picked my way through those tweets last night it seems the conclusion is, from his Dad at least, that Jay is going no where. His tweeting of the rumour seems to be just an endorsement that his son is wanted. A bit of family PR. Or maybe I misunderstood it. Poxy Twitter.

Yes you're right and just watching the clip of them training at Staplewood today he didn't appear to feature.

If he's not in the squad tomorrow night the alarm bells will be tinkling. Assuming he's fit that is.

MLG has just declared he is not required and we have an abundance of net-busting prolific strikers including those on the treatment table who are likely to hardly play before now and the end of the season. There you have it. Let's get rid of Rodriquez.

Players wouldn't be kept abreast of information like this. They'd find out about 5 minutes before Joe Public at best.

With our lack of depth and talent up front this would be a fairly remarkable deal to happen. No smoke without fire though and this rumour has been building for some time so it wouldn't surprise me to see WBA make a serious attempt to get this done.

By your logic it will depend on the line-ups of those visiting teams, no?

The Club is now setting match day prices based on the team they plan to put out? :lol:
