Will we sign our elusive CF/CM this week?

[forumwayseagull]

Just a question as all things have gone very quiet on transfers and speculation. GP said on sat, hopefully bymidweek... Brian Owen tweeted yesterday not to rule out signings this week ( ignoring Balmy)....

Things seem to be moving now at other clubs so I am hopeful we can see something positive happen over next day or so....

Not a chance - Mr Bloom about to become a daddy for the second time !

 

[Mackenzie]

Unlikely this week I'd have thought.

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

No.

 

[Icy Gull]

Will we be announcing big signings when Gus is in Spain? I doubt it

 

[severnside gull]

Sign tonight fly out tomorrow to join the squad?
Sign tomorrow and fly out Thursday?

Any later in the week and it probably loses any point





This tweet from Will Hoskins does at least show that we have one "new" striker in pre-season

"Hard to describe how good I feel compared to last year. Feeling stronger and fitter everyday. The op has sorted me right out. Feel like new."

But surely, with all the new positions we've created recently, we don't need Gus / Tony B involved at all, once Gus has green lit a list of targets?

fancy us to make both the signings this week, hopefully today and tomorrow. At least I hope so.

Ask Gus.

Any new signing will surely want to sit down with his potential new manager during the negotiations?

Besides, Gus and his infectious enthusiasm seems to be vital in sealing the deal

Well gus said in his 'big two' interview that he hoped to bring in these two by the middle of this week, but I doubt this will happen. I think we may get one this week.

 

[Buck]

I don't think our CM will be sorted until Chelsea return from the States

I don't want us to sign a striker and Gus has said there are loads of midfield options. We still have three weeks to secure one. No worries, guys.

Hang on, Hang on.

Thats a POSITIVE post from you.

Midfield is definitely the priority. I wouldn't be desperate to upset the settled line up of strikers we have now.

why don't you want us to sign a striker ?

No idea what CB's reasons are but I'd quite like to see a fully fit Hoskins given a few games. I thought he was gonna be shown the door but just maybe he can be the skilfull quick footed man that would suit our style much better than someone like Volkes. Maybe we don't need another striker unless he is absolutely top drawer?

I`m not too bothered either. I`d like to see Hoskins,Toby and Barnes given a chance with CMS. Buckley also says striker is his best position.

 

[Mellotron]

Hoskins, CMS, Barnes and Agdestein all look like their chomping at the bit to get some game time up front. We're fairly healthy in that area I think.
