Wasn’t he at Tottenham, or somewhere like that?

Rumour is an unnamed club has put in a £22m bid. About the value we seemed to be willing to pay for a new CM so could well be us. Would rather see a natural LWB and a senior back up keeper before close of play tomorrow but like Rodrigo he is a quality player so certainly not upset if we sign him, do wonder where he fits into the team unless we drop Kalvin though, unless Bielsa wants to change up where he plays and rebrand him (or Klich I guess) as an AM.

Him, Costa and Rodrigo could be a frightening front 3, would give us a lot of skill and pace, only worry might be a work permit, anyone know the potential of him getting one? Just thinking back to Cabral getting refused one back at the beginning of the window. Especially as this will be last minute so unlikely to have time to appeal.

19 years old Bright, can play left back as well as on the wing and rapid. Algerian I think. Ed001 what are your thoughts on the player?

Agree1 Disagree0

{Ed001's Note - he was being converted to left-back and did not impress me at all there, hence why Liverpool went and bought one. On the wing he is quick but lacks top level skill, which is why they were converting him and why Jota was bought. He needs to go somewhere he can play regularly and develop, as he is not Prem level yet.}

ta Ed.

{Ed001's Note - very welcome.}

Rumour rehash from sloppy journos again me thinks. We got linked for that at the start of the window and got told to do one, don't see what's changed.

Also plays as a speedy Gonzales winger.

Of course. That's how you get Bielsa interested, tell him they can also play as a winger.

Bielsa, do you want this centre back?
No.
He can also play as a winger.
Oh, go on then.

What looked like being a great window with the acquisition of Cuisance and hopefully a winger to boot to add to the three first team signings already made, now is starting to look dubious .

You can say the club were unlucky with the medical but why leave things so late in the window once again before securing one of our most important targets, that attacking mid to take the strain off Pablo and Klichy .

We are now left scrambling around looking to rescue the situation before Monday's close or having to deal with the sharks in the championship asking over inflated prices for champ players . They'd better pull their fingers out because as it is we are very vulnerable to long term injuries to certain key players where there is an obvious lack of adequate cover .

Namely Meisler, Ayling, Klich, KP, Harrison and Bamford . We lose two or three of these for a lengthy period and we will not cope well.

Have faith RHC! We will bring in more.

Looks like a couple more bodies will come in but even if not Rodrigo can play anywhere across the attacking line, which covers Klich, Harrison, Costa or Bamford unless several are out (plus Poveda looking handy) . Dallas can move to RB if needed and Struik looks good cover for KP in the short term (also believe Koch can play DM with Llorente slotting into CB) . Also rumblings that Bera could get a short term contract when he is back from injury which covers the whole back line. My biggest concern is an injury or loss of form for Meisler.
