Are our movements firming up a little?

Rumours seem to be getting more solid:-

  • Austin and AN Other striker to complete the front 4
  • Sinclair offering the option coming off the bench ala Johnson (hopefully better effect)
  • McNair to replace Crainie and challenge Bash
  • Freeman to contest with Duffy the Number 10 spot
  • Hendo in net
All seem sensible to me and hopefully some come off. Can’t rule out a wild(er) card or two. Fancy us to get a spoiling centre mid in as well and someone with some decent pace.

Personally I think the rumours are becoming more scattergun.

It'll be Wilder fashion for the first signing to be someone not mentioned at all.
 
Henderson
Lenihan / McNair
Hogg / Fer
Freeman
Robinson
McBurnie

That seems quite solidly set and highly believable. Possibly Lenihan AND McNair. Then as possible extras....

GK if Moore leaves - Marshall?
LCB / LWB - shortage of links, I suggest Pedersen from Birmingham
Kane / Valencia / Holgate (Valencia looks past it so hopefully not)
Marriott / Madine


We could well be the busiest PL club this month. We arguably need to be.
 
I do wonder which bang average journeyman we're going to sign this time round and turn into a superb bagsman.

If there's one thing Chris Wilder knows, it's how to polish a turd.
 
I’ll be honest, that’s not the most inspiring recruitment in the world....

Wilder mentioned youth, athleticism and technical skill. McNair is the only one there that even falls close to that category imo.

The likes of mcburie, Robinson, maupay, Adams would have set us up for the longer term whichever division we were in.

I like freeman but Sinclair and Austin at 30 and on significant wages strikes me as back up options rather that what should be our primary targets.

I’m hopeful we’ll get McBurnie in as the AN Other.
 
Suppose We still need a second loan signing as well! Assuming we can actually get hendo over the line after 2 months of trying.

My view is we need to use this window to lower the age of the first team. We don’t have any any regular contributions from players 25 and under that are actually ours. That is a longer term concern and one we should be aiming to use this Pl windfall to address
 
Given the shortness of the window, our movements are going to have to be pretty regular it we’re to have a healthy squad by the start of August.

Indeed. There's not long between squeaky bum time and full-on shitting it.
 

On Friday we'll announce the new shirt, this to be modeled by our new signings; McBurnie, Freeman, Henderson, Joe Allen and Lenihan with Valencia and Obi Mikel joining via satellite link.

There is no way we will sign Austin.

Listen to CW interview and he clearly points to young strikers.

Out of the 5 names you've mentioned, I'm going with only one that we'll sign and he's a loanee ........................ Hendo

The actual ones we'll sign is any fkers guess
