It's certainly becoming a strain.

Harry Wilson to join Leeds on a free, wonder if that means they're no longer after Scienza?

I was toying with the idea that we should be looking for a THB replacement, perhaps Upameccano would fit the bill.

I’m surprised he’s gone there tbh.

Buckling under the heat. I'm steaming about it.

they are no doubt paying him more than anyone else offered. The Calvert Lewin signing was a good one last summer and on paper this is another. Those kind of moves are what turns you from relegation fodder to mid table comfort. I wonder if it impacts the Charles move?

It can, but it can backfire as well. Over the years we’ve bought plenty of stars past their sell by date. Some revelled in a last hurrah, whereas others never fitted in. Going way back Ball, Watson, Osgood and Mills were amongst the signings that worked, whereas Dixon, Speedie, Hughes and, arguably, the return of Romeu were all largely flops.

he's only 29 and coming off the best season of his career. Not sure he's past his sell by date. Dixon on the other hand was 32 and had only scored 5 goals the season before. Speedie was also 32. He had scored a shed load for Blackburn, but in a lower division. Hughes was 35 and Romeu 34. I think most knew there best days were gone.
