Andre Ayew:

Brighton put off by his 90k a week demands. I've seen on MailSport. Make of that what you will, seems plausible. The boy loves a massive cheque.

He has no security at present. If he does his cruciate his Swansea cheque will be his last one.

a) Get injured lose form (Bony style) Max £4m. Retire.

b) Play for Swansea until the end of the season . Guarenteeed £4m. 2x £2.5m Possible £9m max, 3 years. Retire

c) Sign for Brighton 3 year deal on £50k per week. Guarenteed £7.5m. Retire.

£4m guarenteed. £7.5m at Brighton Guarenteed. £9m best possible case no injuries.

Wise sage since Toshack era

Joe Morrell being sold to Luton for £1m. Bristol must be skint.

It's a fee that could total 1M, think the initial fee is only around 200k.

A handful of games in the Champ with the rest of his games spread along the Conference, L2 and L1.....think Bristol City will be happy with the fee. They have a young lad called Liam Walsh at Bristol City, same position as Morrell and they rate him a far better player than Morrell so again will be happy with that fee.

Think they may be, Mitchelmore reckons we have identified Kasey Palmer as a back up to Wilson if we can’t get it done

Flattered to deceive with them since we were linked last summer. Not sure where he or Wilson are supposed to fit in our starting XI unless Cooper plans to drop one of his previous summer signings.

(Bit harsh on Wilson this as he at least offers a good goal return at this level).

Wilson deal will be off, we wont sign both of them.

I may come across as being a pessimist, but neither the signing of the Man City lad or Palmer ticks the boxes for me. But I suppose we have thrived on these type signings in our last stint in Championship.

Palmer's a strange one, someone at the club must have a crush because it's a position we already have lots of bodies and he doesn't score or create many for a luxury attacking mid/playmaker type. Makes less sense now than when we were originally linked.

Better than Palmer definitely but Wilson will play where Ayew is now imo. Brings something different.

This - whilst we’ve been shafted on Rodon if we get Manning confirmed @ the reported £250K we appear to have signed Palmer, Bennett, Manning & Latibeaudiere for £250K plus wages.

Maybe down £5/6M on Rodon but up a similar amount on the 4 we’ve signed.

Was thinking, 'has this been a good window?'.

I can't help but be excited by the excellent young players and the gnarled old centre-back we've brought in today...but I am p*ssed off at the price Rodon was sold for.


Then I looked back to the early posts of mine on this thread and found;

" As the squad begins to take shape it strikes me that we should release or sell the following 4/5 players;

- Declan John
- Nathan Dyer
- Barrie McKay
- Joel Asoro
- I'd also consider selling Peterson as I don't believe he is good enough (would love to be proved wrong though) and should be replaced by Jamal Lowe.


...and bring in the following;

- 2 x Centre-backs, 1 permanent and experienced, plus 1 youngster on loan (Guehi if possible)
- 1 x Left-back (ideally somebody on a free that can give Bidwell a run for his money)
- 1 x Winger/Utility Forward - Jamal Lowe
- 1 x Striker (An exciting young talent on loan)


I know, wishful thinking, but if we could do something like this I believe we will have a good chance next season."




and this a few pages later...



"The squad's too heavy on wingers.

We need to release or Loan out the following;
- Nathan Dyer
- Jordan Garrick (Loan)
- Barrie McKay
- Joel Asoro (possibly Loan)
& maybe
- Kristoffer Peterson

I'd also release or loan out...
- Declan John


and that should give us the room in the budget for
- 1 x experienced centre-back on a free
- 1 x exciting young Striker on loan.

...and if we were being greedy
- 1 x Championship standard left back on a free."





...I got everything I wanted (apart from Rodon going).
...and I look at the squad and I can see at least 2 quality players in every position with some talented youngsters in reserve.
Fabio Borini really would be the cherry on top.


I've got to conclude, it's been a good window.
We are a stronger squad, by far, now than at the start of the window.
In fact it looks like the strongest squad we've had since we've been back in the Championship.
Only concern is that a lot of new players have come in and it will take time for them to gel...but if they do?
We have a chance of going up.
