Hopefully BBD and Downs then as I'd still keep Archer around.

Can't see us signing another forward until BBD, Downs and/or Archer are flogged.

25m excluding add ons, surely.

Terrible source. Same bloke reckons Jack Clarke is going to Middlesborough.

He's played and scored for England, so that's an automatic increase to his value.

Doesn't help when you've got Stephens and Wood at CB. They are both so slow on the ball. THB is the key in that respect. So his replacement really needs to know how to pass the ball forwards quickly and accurately.

I'm not sure he's worth less than Charles though.

Yeah 20 plus 5 add ons will do it. Definitely too cheap.

Tbh I don't blame the club for the Stewart situation. They absolutely should have had a replacement for Charles ready to go though.

Doesn't help when the best player from last season (THB) isn't playing, another one seems to have given up (Scienza) and another is injured (Jander)

Dobbin looked much more lively than Scienza that's for sure.

Scienza playing like he wants a move

The biggest problem is this side has no real pace or power in it at all. Unless we sign 2-3 starters in the next 10 days we will struggle to make the top 8 I think.

Yep and our recruitment to replace players we'd sold last summer was generally very good. Whether Spors can replicate that is another matter. Replacing THB will be very very hard given how influential he is on and off the pitch.
