    Shame it's only a loan for 4 and a bit months. Not sure why we would do this short term loan unless genuinely think we may make the POs with him onboard (or win the cup !) ?
    How committed will he be ?

    Get a top player that we have no chance signing perm, taking a 70% pay cut to come, that’s why it’s a loan

    Just hope him and Ismael have already had a chat, he won’t stand for any atttitude which Dennis has had issues with so hope boundaries have been set. But a player who wants to come back and help us is not a bad sign, especially when he’s played his best football here

    OK but I was hoping we were building for next season. Happy to eat my hat if we get into and win POs but otherwise we are just plugging a hole with a good player for 4.5 months and need to recruit in the summer. Maybe the hype got me too excited of a stellar perm signing......some ace Albanian striker that no-one had heard of....

    I think it all boils down to whether or not we can convince the Nigerian’s to lift their curse on us. It’s been 2 years now, we’ve suffered enough!!!

    I mean realistically why shouldn’t we have hopes of the play offs, we’re 3 points off

    I take your point here but I’d also file this under an ‘exceptional’ circumstance; players like Dennis don’t become available for us everyday and we’re in the race for playoffs at the moment - I think it’s worth it, as if we were to go up I imagine there’s provisions to make the move permanent. If not, we’ve lost nothing given he’s (allegedly) taken a 70% pay cut.

    Also gives the recruitment folk time to do their homework on potential summer targets.

    Ha, turned out that wasn't too far off.

    Worth noting on this, I was told last week we were very close to signing a striker and a midfielder but no names given on either. This is the striker, expect the midfielder in the coming days but the club have obviously got better at keeping things in house. Maybe the rumours about Giaretta were true after all

    What rumours are those?

    That he was often the source of leaked information to media etc

    They were true. Very, very leaky.

    I’d forgotten he’d left until this post. That’s made me happier than Dennis coming back :D

    Ironically the initial signing of Dennis came completely out of the blue

    Feels like a burden has been lifted now I can finally talk about Dennis signing.

    Never underestimate the leakyness.

    Gore isn't as highly rated as Garner was when he had his first loan spell with us, and considering how poor Garner was initially it's not a big surprise that Gore isn't coming here.

    Yes. A tough situation for sure. Interestingly I found out that the Israel national team manager (who has been encouraging him to move) is Alon Hazan.

    If we're actually in for him, Hazan and surprisingly Rodgers (who has stated a number of times how much he regrets the way he treated Watford) would certainly push him towards us of the teams interested. Likewise London would be a great place for him at this time. Suspect he ends up in the Bundesliga though.

    Soon Marco Silva will say he regrets the way he treated us, and the final heel will turn face.

    I’m greedy for more. Need a midfielder in as a minimum.

    There was some talk that we’ve already signed one and was expected to be announced this week.

    Personally thought it would be Styles but looks like Sunderland want him.

    Yeah I’m surprised we’re not in for him. Also surprised we’re not in for Mowatt. His contract expires in 6 months. Granted he’s been playing a major role at West Brom, and probably doesn’t want to leave, but their finances are worse than ours.

    Styles gives more options to the setup. I cant bare the thought i watching Morris at left-back again. Styles can play anywhere down the left which hes done and centrally. If Sunderland get him in on loan with a view they've got a decent player. Only 23 too.
