What do you think?

In my eyes we've got to try and keep hold of at least one, to gain some kind of continuity in the starting line up past October.

Obviously I'd love it to be Savage, but I can't see it happening wages-wise so I'm asking realistically who should we be putting all our efforts into keeping on loan/getting a permanent deal for (out of the following)?

Sorry - it should read LOANEE - singular.

Thornton, is the one that can make things tick and win us a game out of nothing. The one that can score goals, create goals, and cause the most havoc amungst the opposition!

I would make him the priority, then Anyinsah, then Richards, then Savage.

Thornton does look classy, but Joe terrorised Dunne, Ben-Haim et al, and is strong and committed.

I think Anyinsah is probably the more likely of the three. Struggled to get a look in at Preston - been loaned out to four clubs in two years so he might be looking for more stability. Definitely worth pursuing.

Thornton is capable of playing at Championship level and he knows it, Cov fans love him, just couldn't see him being willing to drop down a level on a permenant basis. All efforts should be made to extend the loan though.

Savage isn't gonna happen. Wages.

I voted Thornton, but truth told, I think that they are all very good additions and would be pleased if any of them stayed.
 


A nice 'wish list' to choose from. Realistically, we ought to be looking at who we would want to retain into a future squad, who would we build a team around?
So, that takes Savage out of the running, and there are JA and KT.
Like most of us here would probably agree, both of them would make for a fine addition to our squad. So with that in mind, I can't choose between them, so I'll have to not vote.

In an ideal world i would love to sign Ayinsah permanantly, which is possible and feasible and then sign Thornton on a season long loan. Extend Savages loan to Christmas and then somebody could buy him from Derby in January. I would expect anybody considering signing him in January would want to take him on loan first to check him out.
