Forget the defending, it’s the quality of the finish that’s important

There's no rush really, as he wouldn't be joining until December/Jan anyway. Better that the club focusses on the players for this window first.
I think Inter Miami have been given the option of when we announce this. Not great for morale to trumpet that a player is off in the middle of the season.

By all accounts this is a done deal but he won't be joining until Jan, so maybe Inter Miami don't want to formally announce it until after their season ends (December).
Or possibly, we may bring him in this month if we don't get O'Reily (but assume we would need to pay extra to Inter Miami in that case).

We’ll just have to either convert the weights room or build another facility for the ladies team…..Gives us time to buy more lockers and expand the changing rooms, canteen and car park
Probably needs an £80m sale to Chelsea first

If we are wracked with injuries and suspensions, he is going to be incredibly useful as we start our FA Cup campaign.
However, if the likes of O’Riley, Milner, Wieffer and Ayari are all fighting fit and bang in form, he can have a little 1/2 season development loan to get used to the new country.
TB is not ****ing about this season.

I wonder if the terms of whatever we've agreed with Miami are changeable, (or we would look to change them) given what has happened to O'Reilly.
Because the sense i've got is that the transfer has been agreed, all parties have agreed to keep their mouths shut and we've contracted that we won't take him until their season ends.
But what if that wasn't part of the contract? That we basically let them keep him until the end of their season, more out of good will, because we knew we were covered as we were getting O'Reilly .... but that has now possibly changed.
Or what if no contract has been signed and agreed? We could now buy him and register him now?
I'm not dead set on this, but just say we get a bad prognosis on O'Reilly, say it's till the end of the year. It makes little sense to struggle through till then, then have two midfielders coming in at the same time

I am led to believe that it is all due to the MLS financial restrictions. If he is signed before October (?) the fee is included in the cap for this season, if it’s after, it’s for next season.
Something like that.
I think.
I can’t remember exactly what I was told, and I can’t find it anywhere now.

Our transfer window has closed so we could only sign him in January.
Or if a deal has already been done, likewise we can only register him in January.
