… fees and scale of current club
But given where the market ‘chain’ is and Ashtons comments, they might not be until right till the start of the season
Note - I like Celina, I think I’d want him back, but perhaps a better player in terms of fit is out there - but the Twitter pile on demanding his return is a bit OTT? [Post edited 10 Jul 2022 15:11]

I don't know why people get so excited about fee's.
The smart buys are the ones like Dom Ball, strengthens the first team, lots of experience at a higher level, and free. |  |

I think so to, and if we can get Lief and Hirst, then I would shut the window there and then. |  |

A simple perceived equation between price and quality. Which does hold true to a certain extent, but takes no account of things like contracts running down, promoted teams offloading players and the like. Plus there is no guarantee that a pricey player will hold their form, be able to integrate with the club/system and so on once a move is completed. |  |

There is always the possibility that someone unexpected becomes available and at a price we can afford. We should always keep our options open. |  |

I think people have slept on Dom Ball in particular. Despite being four years younger, Ball's played just one fewer season in the Championship than Sam Morsy. If we'd signed such a player for a fee I think there'd be a lot of chat about it being a "ridiculous signing for this level". [Post edited 10 Jul 2022 20:25]

I have to agree with your last paragraph, think ball will be a good signing on a free, |  | | |

Where has there been a pile on demonising Celina re-signing?
I really hope Celina comes back and the fools that seem to think we can do better are made to look as silly as they are. | | | |

Good sleuthing. It’s not liked we’ve been linked with 2 or 3 players for big fees in the last week or two…😂 | | | |

I am really pleased with the business this window. We’ve targeted areas most people felt were weak.
Top 5 left back in L1
Champ quality midfielder
Top L1 striker plus top up and coming England U21 striker
We have 21 seniors in the squad that will have completed preseason which is better than last season, KMcK and Ashton have both said they would like to bring in 1-2.
Im relaxed in the knowledge if anyone else arrives they will have to be better than we have otherwise there would have been no point in making the change. | |

It’s a numbers game . Where does Celina sit in our list of targets? Top ten? Top five? We’ve probably crossed one or two off already. Celina is a ´nice to have’. I think there are three must-fill positions ahead of him and if fees and wages allow, then by all means bring in Santi. | | | |

Cruncher has been saying we’re moving the goalposts and should pay him what wants! Others stating that we don’t really need him and have more pressing needs. | | | |

Don’t quite agree
I think we’re missing a creative midfielder, a pedigree striker and a left wing back to provide true competition if not to be senior to Leigh.
We have burns and kvy for the right slot, and Penney is not good enough.
We want 3 we want 3 we want 3
We will ship out at least 3 seniors | |

I think another reason he's a bit under the radar is because he looks about 40 and some probably think we've signed a bit of a veteran. Couldn't believe it when I heard he was only 26. |  |

Signings are always more about the team than the player, unless it's a Ronaldo/Beckham who can shift stuff.
I actually feel for the first time in a while we are signing components of a team rather than just players. |  |

I think he's been away since we signed him, and his dad has been standing in for him in photos and at training. |  | | |

That's where I am too. If we had to pay a player £15k a week, they would have to be phenomenal at this level and have proven it. Celina still goes missing too often at this level.
£7.5k a week on two players should and probably would get you some very good L1 players if not Championship players in the current market. |  | | |

This is my view, he really isn’t twice as good as 2 very good players | |
