- Thread starter Bring back Bryan wade!!
- Start date
It was interesting to be linked to Dan James, but Cucurella if we can sign him, looks much better value.

Maybe I’m wrong - had watched and didn’t think we was outstandingly quick. Watched again and does show some decent pace but not sure if I’d say ‘rapid’. Hope you’re right and I’m wrong obviously!
If Trossard's away with Belgium, won't that be in an internatinal break, so no opportunity for Khedra there?
You may be right about Roberts - I can see him spending a year back with us (mainly in the U23s, but some time training with the first team) before going on a Championship loan next season.

I'd be surprised if Roberts doesn't go out on loan this season! I can see Khedra staying to replace Jahanbakhsh and get some game time though.
I mean I don’t know Ashworths thinking, but I’d presume Hayden’s next stage of development would be a competitive Championship side.
We'll see - he's still only 19, and I'm not sure he'd be ready for the Championship quite yet. He does seem to have grown a bit - but that's maybe his hairstyle! We've got so much to speculate about this summer - it's turning into one of the most exxciting transfer windows I can remember!
If we can move Jahanbakhsh on ................................

Only ever wanted a clear out this summer and the purchase of the special one upfront plus a left back / left wingback. was shocked in a way by a new midfielder joining as Propper was non existent anyway last season but I would still would go after Ryan Sessegnon.

I’m not too sure he is ready yet. Roberts only actually averaged 59 minutes in games he was not injured for Rochdale (who were relegated to league two). I wouldn’t be surprised if he got another L1 loan

He's supposedly been a target of West Ham, Everton, Newcastle, Leeds and Wolves in the last 12 months. Injuries aside, I think his stock is higher than you perceive it to be.

Some very encouraging comments from Athletico fans at the bottom of this article when he was linked with them last month. Seems he’d be a decent LWB…

If Atletico are interested and willing to match what we offer this is going the same way as Nunez and Gonzales
Although if they already have two quality players in his position, why would they be interested?

The problem with Sessegnon is that Spurs paid a whopping £25m for him and he's barely got a look in, plus 20 odd games at Hoffenheim last season means that Spurs will want some of that investment back. He's also only 2 years through a 5 year deal. Personally, I'd love him but I think he's miles out of our price range sadly
I want this one a lot… lots of good things about him and young to develop… not much news since original break though
Quite happy that it's quiet to be honest - no noise re potential other clubs involved..................hopefully means we're doing our usual secret deal. Next news might be confirmation he's singed.

That's usually a good sign isn't it?
