Helpful stuff. That was definitely the figure quoted by the press when we agreed at the beginning of the loan deal if we opted to buy. Suspect as Setubal stayed in the Primeira they've decided to ask to stick with that figure... IMO we were hoping they'd go down so we could get a cut-price deal, which is why Jos couldn't answer if we were going to go for him or not.

Someone else already mentioned him but one of the gingers I've been most impressed with in recent seasons at this level as been Ryan Woods of Brentford. Harrison Reed and/or Ryan Woods would be very good signings if possible. Either one of them would be very handy alongside Bannan. Btw, that Meggo kit is a beauty. Would love something like that but preferably with black shorts and white turnovers on the socks. Black shorts; white turnovers, gingers and a sexy moustache are ingredients for success...

The Night-Owl Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 Joe Nolan at Shrewsbury is another decent ginger haired midfielder, worth considering along with Reed and Woods, been impressed with him this season for Shrewsbury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure I read that the option to buy had a timescale on it which ran out before the season ended. If that's the case I suppose Setubal can now up the asking price.

Are either of them top 6 championship quality players? Im fairly certain we could lose them and 5-6 others and still compete next season for a top 6 spot, and if all is to be believed about finances competing may be most we can hope for next year.

The Night-Owl Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 Young dynamic Welsh attacking midfielder/winger/striker Harry Wilson on loan? Apparently Liverpool are looking for a £250,000 loan fee? He impressed last season on loan at Hull. He's being linked with the likes of Rangers; Villa, Leeds and Hull. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither will make or break our summer transfer window - they only have six Championship appearances between them, so they're hardly central to our squad, and if they'd been on the books of another Championship team and were our first two signings of the summer, I doubt we'd all be jumping for joy. In order to have a successful transfer window, we have far bigger fish to fry. It would be great if all of our promising young players wanted to stay and develop their careers here, but that's not the way it goes in modern football, unfortunately.

Agreed have good Academy but personally would prefer us to go after Sam McQueen of Matt Targett think they would be more useful to us. Reed played in last game of season and had reasonable game although we beat Norwich 5 - 1 . He has plenty of energy and is busy player but very small.

No one is smaller than Kante. but I doubt anyone is better at what he does. Jos thinks Reed is the player we need. Then i trust his judgement.
