Not keen on it being a loan deal, but he’d be a good signing none the less. |  |

Isn't he a central midfielder? Can't imagine we would be after someone else in that position,when Taylor,Evans and Ball are here. |  |

Could mean one of Evans or Ball is off and we're doing the same as we did with Leigh and Williams. Use it as an opportunity to upgrade.
We could lose both Morsy and Luongo for 7 weeks in January to the Africa and Asia Cup of Nations. |  |

Good point. I mean,he's s fantastic player at this level,so wouldn't say no to having him on board! | |

Would have thought there are bigger priorities in the team tham finding yet another CM. Doesn't add up to me. What about Jack Taylor? Isn't he the next cab in the rank? Don't need him.... especially when the focus is getting a striker ans a CB through the door in the final few days. | | | |

We've been worrying about losing Morsy for the last couple of years. It's never happened. Think we need to stop worrying about that... same with Luongo and Australia | | | |

Tbf, via whatever circumstances we've got here I think loans are more likely now than permanent signings.
Clubs know we need to add to the squad to so we have the risk of having our pants pulled down on price and MA has said we will be run with a focus on sustainability etc. Don't think now is going to be a particularly opportune moment to make the right signings at the right price.
Loans not my first choice either though I must say but rather loans than Ahadme or Camara. | | | |

Those three constitute less than 10% of the senior squad and it would be hard to argue the squad is being 'built around' any of them. There's a good chance that if Williams works out that converts to a permanent in the summer.
I'd rather get permanents but if loans are needed to get the quality we need I'm comfortable with a couple more. | |

Williams has option to buy, (presumably we can't afford him unless we go up...), so barely even counts as a loan. | | | |

There isn't an option to buy. It Is a loan. | |

Nearly all Championship teams will have 2/3 Prem loans, that is how it works. Williams may come here permanently if things work out, like with Hirst. Luongo may well sign again for another year too.
It is clearly proving hard to get the players in whilst still staying within FFP is the issue. |  | | |

I agree. All I shared was what ashton said a few months ago. | |

No option to buy. And from what lve seen of Hutchinson can't see why we even loaned him. He has too much to learn and all we are doing is trying to make him better for some other club. We need our own signings. Loans aren't the answer. Will be disappointing if that's all we get in before the deadline. |  | | |

Three is not that many…. and nothing like the bad old days of more awful loans in the squad than we could play. |  |

Depends how it goes.
IF and it's purely if we go by the potential links..
O brien

Rak sayi
Could.. COULD end up with 5 loans.
I don't mind loans. I want rak sayi and scarlett. But I'd be surprised based on ashtons thoughts if we ended up down that route with so many [Post edited 28 Aug 2023 17:30]

I'd be surprised if we signed another centre mid this window given the available options we have. There must be higher priorities | | | |
