At 18? and completely new to European football? it will be a little while l think. He will need time on the training pitch first and foremost.

Off the bench and indivdually, then yeah sure.

The trouble is, given them all a chance together, and that's when the wheels can start to come off, great prospects though they all are. It could be claimed perhaps that Alzate has already been bloodied, and that Ferguson is still a season or two off first team starts. The others in a way are...

Botman will probably replace the awful Jamaal Lascelles, the Toon have al lot of dead wood at the back. The BDB/Newcastle love in will continue.

Don't like.

One could almost also say that Cucu is more of a LB, but can play as a winger.

Quite so, l believe nothing until l see the player in question holding up the stripes on the Albion website.

Not in so many words perhaps, but if it is additional firepower that we need, l think it will come from the Development squad.

With all our hopes pinned on Deniz Undav for next season l can't see us signing a Premier League ready forward, unless the likes of Neal Maupay or Danny Welbeck should leave anyway.

Hmmm l wish that l could sharfe all your optimism. One worry being that several players being mentioned on this thread haven't even made their 1st team debuts for the Albion yet. I was rather hoping that their introduction would have been rather more gradula that some on here are implying.

The August transfer window opening in June you say . . . Goodness gracious me. The likes of Bissouma, Trossard et al then, could well be playing their last few games in the stripes.

Seems churlish to complain when we are currently occupying the heady heights of ninth place in the entire footballing pyramid, but l guess that's always been the way with football fans. never satisfied and forever demanding more. I'm not sure l'm targetting any particular position or players...

We all need to dream. :drool:

We all need to dream. :drool:

It would be nice if we could just sign one player with proven 1st team experience, who we could immediately integrate into the senior squad, could hit the ground running, and make a difference this season, as opposed to our current model of simply gobbling up young talent with an eye for the future.

Close the thread, nothing will be happening before the window slams shut.:nono:

The very fact that the extent of Jordan Rhodes ambitions, seemed to be to play for his "dream" club Sheffield Wednesday says it all really

Sad . . . but true. :(

Merci Monsieur Pedant. :)

He has had a season with Nottingham Forest since then!
