An update re next two days. My info is
Barisic away
Itten away
Kelly on loan
Barker on loan
King on loan

DEFOE to retire and become full time coach, he feels he is taking player wage not contributing, this may not be announced yet gerrard wants squad to be top heavy this season, therefore Arfield leaving now unlikely

Two first team players in, one buy one
loan. This does not include LB cover yet.

Also told kamara will confirm next week, Goldston not signing deal on table yet.

Cheers John I’m hearing Veerman deal still a possibility.

I really want Veerman but tbh if we did sign him it would make the signing of Bacuna a bit unnecessary. Midfield seems a bit overloaded now, suppose it might depend on whether Jack is able to come back to the levels he was at before. Was a lot of talk about Davis playing a bit less this season as he coming to the end but on current form he's un-droppable, he was sensational second half yesterday. If Borna goes then a left back cover before the window closes should be priority.

It looks like Barasic is going but no real concerns on our young lads going out on loan and we won't miss Itten.
Hopefully the two players coming in will be quality signings. I believe that we could do with signing another striker, (even on loan), and it would be good if we signed Veerman or the other attacking midfield player that we were linked with.

I am also hearing that Everton will come in with a £10m+ bid for Paterson. If that happens I can't see the boy wanting to stay with us unless he is getting proper game time.

Hi John25, if Itten goes and Defoe hangs up his boots so to speak, would you envisage a striker coming in?

If itten and Defoe goes. That leaves only morelos and an unproven and so far injured sakala. We will definitely need a proven goal scorer to come in. unless we already plan to start using algeria.

No I don’t, Alegria will step up IMO.

Could yet be some late interest in Morelos.

Don't understand the Kamara stuff. Offered the deal two weeks ago, why does it take 3 weeks for him to sign?

Bankie Alfredo ain’t leaving.

John is Itten getting sold or loan?

Roofe plays as a 9 aswell.

Rcfb goldston has had a contract to sign since may.

Alfredo is not leaving because nobody is going to offer £15m for a striker in that form, i hope he gets his act together soon.

Seen rumours of Troy Deeney coming although Birmingham seem to think they the deal sawn up. Was cracking a couple of seasons ago but could still see him as a short term repayment if Defoe and Itten go.

Hearing Troy Deeney in Glasgow-he would do a fair turn up here.

Troy deeney spotted at Ibrox today.

Roofe still there so it is just not alfredo left or sakala.

That alfredo played well yesterday. There defence could not handle him.
