Might take a while to settle in a season or so
Unless we get more injuries or RDZ feels he’s ready we’ll prob take it slow with him,..

If we get this over the line, that is all that is required this transfer window,

Would be amazing

Sort of agree but worried RDZ doesn’t as he’s said 3 or 4 and is starting to look a bit moody… So hopefully we get this and 2 others with Dahoud maybe heading out somewhere… CM and winger maybe?

Think we need another midfielder. WBG has really stepped up but Dahoud and Baleba going to be more time to bed in

But getting barcode in would be phenomenal.

We need an additional signing in Centre midfield. Baleba isn’t yet ready for PL as RDZ has said and Dahoud simply doesn’t look good enough and is clearly out of favour . That only leaves Gilmour and Gross which clearly isn’t enough.

RDZ may have to live with it, word on the street is Barco and that's it

Oh you’ve actually heard this is likely to be the only signing? I did think Bloom hinted about the squad quality in his interview once the injuries return. I was expecting more myself though.

I’m hoping we can get the left footed RW understudy to March we were clearly after in the summer now that March is out long term.

We won’t sign a player for the sake of it but I just think that one of our long term targets could be available this window at an amount that offers good sell on value (Pedro level not Caicedo obviously).

Not sure what street you live on but I’d be surprised if we only sign one player before February.
That doesn’t mean joins us straight away though

Twas only the last 6 minutes of Injury time yesterday at Stoke, but I liked the busyness and demanding of the ball by Jack Hinchy, confident, couple of good passes, seen him in a streamed age group game online and thought he looked decent.

Chance he may feature more in the not too distant?
I was genuinely unaware that Hinchy's name was also Jack. That is going to confuse a lot of people if he makes a breakthrough into the senior squad.

Would it?

Milner can also fill in. Great tackler, strong, short passing more than good enough. Leave Gilmore to do the more offensive stuff.

Obviously not a long term solution..
Agree that currently Milner would be my 3rd choice CM after Gross and Gilmour, but then, you'd look at a midfield of Gross and Milner and though they are quality players, they could be got at pace-wise.

My ideal would be, to ship out Dahoud, loan out Baleba, bring in someone who can get about the pitch and put their foot in for the rest of the season, see where we are in the summer.
