Yes please. I just hope the bulk of the remaning budget isnt going on this deal, we still need at least one more defender, ideally another centre mid, and obviously this £1m+ centre forward.

Tis all bloody exciting though..

Good stuff. The Sun is meant to be quite reliable when it comes to these kind of stories isn't it?

Buckley taking on the Bennett role and KLL and Noone taking on the job of impact sub. Awesome.

I'm not sure we'd spend £1.2 million on KLL for him to be an impact sub.

I'd expect it to be Buckley on the right and KLL on the left, to provide crosses for Hoskins and A.N. Other.

Spot on. That's how I see it, and AWESOME is the word. If we can nab Kaz it will surely be time to sort out the defence next. With any luck most of the squad will be in place before pre-season training begins.

I'd be surprised if his legs can last the whole game tbh. I don't think how much we pay for a player should dictate his use. Just use him where he's most effective.

Although you're right I imagine he'd start with Buckley and Nooney would be out last half hour man. Also agree with you about strikers. Hoskins upfront with a new signing.

Looks like the Gus masterplan is taking shape. It's so exciting. We're getting real quality players through the door. KLL, a striker and a centre back away from being perfect.. As you say getting everyone together and a solid preseason is what it's all about!

Up the Albion!!

thats just the way to sell it to kLL

YOU WILL BE A SUB

Look how he was used last season. He needed to be looked after and rested very often because of the amount of work his hamstrings did. I think he'd start one week and the next week come off the bench.. That's what he was doing for us last year and it worked.

But by all means get the wrong end of the stick and over simplify..

We will play 2 wingers at home I have no doubt about it.
And which ever of the 2 isnt performing on that day will make way for the one on the bench, simples.

We need planty of options, its vital

If we are 17th in the Championship league table of spending, just think what the others are going to buy.

Agreed, was going to post something similar. Having options is the key here, players get injured, lose form and get tired during a season and Gus will want decent cover for when that happens.

Also don't forget Jamie Smith. If he starts the season like he did last year I think he'll have a part to play, even if it's on another 6 month contract.
