Sean Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 I just hope we know whoever we are going for is actually available, and wants to come. Let's not have another January deadline situation where one club refuses to sell/loan at the last minute because they don't need to, and another player turns us down at the last minute. That would be deflating. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
khay Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Speed it’s taking deals to get done this summer in general, hopefully something breaks today or tomorrow and we get at least one permanent and push through a loan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toontownman Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Lots can happen on deadline day. Hope we get one in before then though. I think we will get one for sure but could end up with 2 or 3 if things swing our way. We will be active in January if not. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mazzy Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Surely we must have some rumours/news tomorrow! Unless it's all being kept entirely under the radar there won't be time for anything (especially 2) if we don't hear anything by tomorrow night .

HaydnNUFC Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Out for a tipple before a gig in York tomorrow. (Well, today given the time). Some news coming out of the gig would be splendid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

r0cafella Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Our owners have said previously that January isn’t a window they favour (Last January was obviously an emergency) so I wouldn’t expect too much from us in the January window. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe. Probably. But if the right player becomes available for whatever reason. And the situation arises… say we’re in the mix for a spot in Europe. I’m confident they’ll seize the opportunity.

LRD Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 We signed Bruno, Burn and Targett (loan) in the last days of the January window. Am optimistic that we will see incomings in the next few days. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, we have our marquee signing in Isak already. Can see a loan and maybe just maybe, if Leicester is willing to meet our bid for Maddison. Do think Watford will eventually accept Pedro joining us though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Alvarez feels like it's going to be a waste of time at this stage of the window if Ajax have no intention of letting him go. We need to be hunting down alternatives instead of banging our heads against a brick wall. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now Ajax might not be so keen. We shall see. Sure we will know more by this time tomorrow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to be hunting down alternatives instead of banging our heads against a brick wall. It's not really a waste of time because I doubt we're only working on only one deal for one player. Doesn't hurt to just throw it out there. We all thought Joao Pedro was done then Isak came along out of nowhere.

kingxlnc Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Anyone think we could try and revive the Diaby deal? He also seems like a long term target which fits the strategic plan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 (edited) Just think that's a good fee for someone who'd push Shelvey, Longstaff & Willock as the third midfielder, also depending on the opposition and how we want to us Bruno, who'd become a fair squad player while we progress. Fits in the Targett & Burn bracket to me. Edited August 30, 2022 by Optimistic Nut Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
