I’m not sure who it could be but I’m hoping it’ll be somebody comparable to Rak-Sakyi in some way as difficult as that would be to find. I get the impression that we’re only going to sign players this January if it’ll really be worth it. I’m probably wrong though and it will be Nunez😅

A back up CB maybe?

I would like to think that we wouldn’t put players on our recruitment lists who can’t obtain work permits but then again it is us.

Neither had Downes though, although I accept there seemed to be a bit of a bidding war between Palace and West Ham.

I badly worded what I said, but what I meant was that Rodon has gone on to have more PL experience than Downes and shown that he has what it takes to be a regular starter at the top level whereas Downes has ended up back in the Championship. Going by what they’ve done since we sold them, Rodon...

I’d say Rodon was a little bit of an undersell too when you consider it was Spurs who were buying him. Can’t account for the future of course but I think Downes sold for more, yet it’s Rodon who has more Premier League experience.

Looking at the reported fees for the last few Champ top scorers and high scoring players: Akpom: 28 league goals, sold for €12.3m was 27 at the time. Last year of contract. Szmodics: 27 league goals, sold for £9-11m was 26 at the time. Not the last year of his contract. Piroe (not top scorer...

With selling strikers, it won’t just be about goals scored. It’ll be about his profile and his overall contribution. I personally feel he has a good all round game but the one thing that will go against him is his pace. In the Premier League for example, all the “big forwards” the top clubs go...

Ronald wasn’t bad last night, far from it. He was still running around and winning 50-50s at the end of the game, can’t fault that at all. Where he tends to frustrate is in the inconsistency of his decision making and quality of his final ball. Against West Brom in the cup he put in some...

I think this is a fair opinion, even if I don’t share it. Matos hasn’t played “Swansea Way” style football so far, but it isn’t supposed to be, and to me it is still entertaining to watch. We have played some nice football through midfield and in the final third, we just aren’t passing out from...

The quick turnover was evident tonight, we looked tired but got 2 goals in the second half after sloppily giving the ball away for theirs. That’ll only do our confidence good. Really hope we don’t end up selling VP in this window. He looks nailed on for 20 goals this season. A definite 10+...

Widell was never a creative player for his old club by the looks of it. His assist numbers are pretty modest, think the highest he has in a season is 5. I don’t think he’s this creative 10 that people want. He’s a classic 8 who will win the ball and progress it well. I do agree about goals...

Looks like Oxford have signed one or two players this window, saw someone saying they’re doing some decent business, hopefully that’s not true.

I think we’ll need to bring in a CB whatever happens, need to get cover for Casey leaving. Not sure how much scope there is to do anything else. Think the owners/club only want to do deals if that player would definitely improve us like Rak-Sakyi would have.

Agree. Had we scored another against Birmingham in the first half, I don’t think they would have had the belief to come back given their away form at the moment. We’ve got to bring in some players this summer who will make an impact for us in the final 3rd. I believe there is potential for...

It’s possible Matos might want a bit more speed up front to take advantage of the pressing situations we’re creating these days, that’s the only reason I think we may cash in on Vipotnik. I’m a big fan of his though and it’ll be sad to see him leave if he does. Galbraith I can just see being...

I can see Vipotnik and Galbraith being sold if we get good 10m+ offers for them. I think Key will go if he’s not happy becoming a back up. Not too many others I’d expect to be leaving.

Reliable journalist said we were looking at a high end League One loan for him. I bet we’ll see him go somewhere before the end of the window. He looks promising and if he can prove himself at that level, could be ready to step up for us next season.

Thought that was our best league performance this season to be honest. Created multiple good moments and quality chances. Hit the crossbar 3 times. On most other days it’s 3 points. Our performances are trending upwards and we’re starting to click. Widell and his work-rate are absolutely vital...

Exactly, there’s ambition being shown off the pitch and an effort to build a deeper squad on it. The only thing that has been a big mistake seems to be our manager appointment last summer, I think the club will head on an upward trajectory hopefully, now that we have Matos in, who seems to have...
