Surely we currently have 8 HGP's in our first team squad, unless any leave: Baldock, Duffy, Dunk, March, Murray, Norwood, Steele, and Stephens.


It's easy to forget Norwood who was in the Championship team of the season 3 years ago, Since then he has been in two Championship promotions squads for us and Fulham. No doubt we are looking for upgrades in all squad positions, but in the meantime we have 8 HGP's.
Yes, you right - I forgot Norwood.

Although I'm not convinced he has more than a minimal chance of being in our 25 man squad.

Could you sign an unattached player after the first game and add them or is the door firmly shut after the first game?

Yes - but only if all other aged over 21 players are off the books ( Norwood, Towell, Ahannach, Mateju, etc etc ).

I'll bet you 3 packets of Toffos that Norwood is not named in our August 2018 25-man squad.

Maybe, but he is a better midfield player than Paddy McNair who was recently a £5m transfer target of ours.

However if McNair was being touted as a back up centre back, he is not as good as Aiden Flint of Bristol City. It looks like Flint is available for £7m and he is the type of centre back who could compete with Duffy.

West Ham also interested in Dragovic, and likely to offer him stupid money. Flint is a HGP and affordable. Surely we can hi-jack Middlesbrough's bid for Flint. After all, we supposedly bid for Flint in the last Jan transfer window.

Good call

It seems very quiet for all clubs. There is going to be an almighty rush for signings for all sides between the end of the world cup and the transfer deadline - that is less than 4 weeks.

Yep. With the window closing earlier this year AND the World Cup stopping any activity it's going to be very busy.

I for one think this is a good thing. There is so much brinkmanship with activity generally concentrated until near the end of the window. If this is the case why not make the window shorter and cut down the time wasting?
