Of the two I would far sooner have a fully fit EB. In fact he would the man I chased after most of all the speculation about BZ etc. EB is the man to provide the chances for Hemed and Baldock, then scoring problem solved at a reasonably cheap rate.
To supply Hemed who looks good in the air and Baldock. It is easy to suggest players but to suggest those within our range of finances is more difficult. Yes there are better but can we afford them?
I would think that he will be in our price range hence I want him to play well enough to show he would be an asset to us but not so that Norwich refuse to sell or up the price. When we have resigned him in January then he can begin to excel and show his true worth.
That is for permenant teansfers I think loan is about 5 hours before kick, off. We signed a player on loan at 3pm one day at Withdean and he played that evening so on that assumption I would say by about 2 of 3pm.today.
Bennett would be an immense improvement as he is a genuine wing back who is equally at home either playing as a winger or as a full back, so is quick and can tackle. Hope it comes off.
Perhaps the recruitment team arent sitting around doing nothing.
