Well the weekends media scrum on transfers has us linked to everyone as usual, but by far the most talked about is the Dutch flyer Gyrano Kerk. Lots of info from the Ajax manager who managed him at Utrecht, says he's the most dangerous and fastest thing in the Dutch League. Plenty of goals and assists each of the last 3 seasons and can play in any of the front 3 positions and can easily replace Harrison on the left against Man City?
Cantwell still mentioned and not in todays matchday squad? Not sure this is genuine not but why not but why now? Wasnt he supposed to e on Liverpools radar or £30m not long ago. Like him as a player and he does create
Cantwell is deffo in the frame and confirmed Leeds have spoken to Norwich but no idea if we made an offer. Chances are they want too much money and we knock them back like we did when they told us £25m for Buendia. also hearing that the Dutch flyer Kerk has options in Italy and may want to go there. Going to be a big week now if we are getting anyone else over the line
We definitely need another midfielder with Pablo getting a bit injury prone and Forshaw suffering a setback. Dallas can't make the numbers up centrally at this level. Bielsa seems reluctant to rely on Shackleton to start there so we need another in. To be fair, the lad Kent at Rangers is on fire at the moment and can play both wings and centrally. De Paul is obviously going somewhere. Hopefully this week.
Phil Hay confirms Leeds talking to Norwich about Cantwell? Telegraph journo confirms Leeds talking to Norwich, no smoke without fire but still depends on the greedy bastards being sensible The kid can play wing and ten though so lets hope this week we get stuff sorted
Fabrizio above gave us the Rodrigo story way before anyone had even thought about it. top top talent this kid
Was looking at the PL table there & was puzzled that Cilla had only played 1 game so far. Had a look at their schedule & had a little chuckle to myself. This is their fixture list leading up to them playing us. It's just possible that they could remain on the 3 points they already have ....

i thought this was just paper talk last week, but it’s all over the German press today. He was pulled from their game today, Bayern are offloading a few squad players - which is what he is to them. Be a really exciting signing if it’s true
Established top clubs account for nearly all their cash, with no fans at league and champions league games they are going to be down well over £20 million so maybe they want to get a bit of cash in. Us on the other hand only have a handful on the real big cash.
Phil Hay now confirming the young French star is a serious deal and close to being done. The lad isnt getting enough game time and only got 17 appearances last season. Only one French team have come in for him but only want a loan. Munich want cash. This one looks like a runner
Cuisance seemingly had an amazing debut season for the munchin’ flapjacks - then lost his way in season 2 and was barely picked- signed for Bayern and has struggled to get in a highly competitive Bayern midfield- no shame there obviously - and he wants to play. So - undoubtedly a top talent - but will want game time and yet to prove he’s quite the finished article - just 21... prone to genius and mistakes. Be fascinating how we integrate him to suit all parties. ... if it happens
