Still ours, on loan at Roma.

Papers here saying PSG signing him, saw something where they were saying has become sought after whilst in Italy

Surprising really cos he was a bomb scare for us, when he was fit.

Believe it when I see it. PSG have scoured the world for a top class defender and come up with Llorente? There’s nothing better in their own league?

The word sought over was used, had me looking in dictionary to see if it had a definition i was un aware of. Anyone know if he’s been any good at Roma? Didn’t some greasy retard give him a new contract?

Departures of Spence, Ayling, Gyabi, Bate on loan and possible sale of Cresswell will give us room for manoeuvre.
But ultimately it’s the rats that couldn’t get out on loan fast enough in the summer that are costing us in more ways than one.

Does it? Spence by all accounts abit of a cunt. Ayling was finished here, hes got a move sorted and we’ve let him go as he’s at a stage where his chance of Championship appearances are running out of time quickly. Gyabi wasn’t deemed ready or good enough, same for Bate. Cresswell, we all know is good enough and ready but not in front of Rodon who hasn’t missed in the right side of defence. I know we all joke about January being hard but it is. Everyone struggles unless paying over odds. Its no coincidence that transfers happen last minute as clubs panic by either lowing demands or paying above actual worth.

Has frustrating has we have been for consistency, I didn’t expect us anywhere near 4th, especially after the first 4 games. Hopefully we get shut of Gnonto this month and get someone else in.

Yes I think it does in terms of wages off the books but again that means loans in.

We seem to be linked to Benson from Burnley? You’d imagine that would be Gnontos replacement if all the rumours are true.

Not gonna lie though, do find it a little unsettling that come summer we only have 1 senior CB on the books.

Its come first game that counts old lad. Cooper past it too. Who knows, we could be signing some internationals for our return to the prem.

I think we'll try, but realistically if we don't go up a Prem team will come in for him cos he's had a great season.

If we go up he's ours imo.
