We need quality in pretty much every position apart from in goal and at RB.

It's mad thinking that Leicester have a much more complete side on paper right now.

Any team in the premier league with a left footed left back in it, has a better team than us on paper.

its bad enough we are (considering) loaning lookman out anyway but if he goes to league 2 that's just utter stupidity

Sam wants to beat the skill and guile out of him. It's hoof or nothing. League 2 is the Big Sam school of football.

Not a chance he Will go anywhere below top 10 championship. If Mansfield took a loaner from us it would be an u23 player.

..i don’t know who the Mansfield link is but it could be Conor Grant. Grant is nearing the end of his contract and has been rumoured to be leaving.

Was told today that Cresswell will happen before the Deadline shuts, all agreed and will happen!

..interesting if that’s who the management team want but i’d prefer and get somebody decent. Cresswell is nearing 30 and offers quality on the ball but he’s small framed and I can’t see him having the athleticism to support the back four (size, pace, power). Players like him run out of effectiveness with age because of the physicality in the league. I doubt he’s much better than Baines.

It would further reflect a lack of strategy.
