Bluebirds transfer rumours

You should have been a lawyer TLG!

[The Lone Gunman]

Be surprised if we let both Nelson and McGuiness go unless Sean Morrison is expected back maybe?

I wouldn’t. For months we’ve been told the club will need to cut costs this season, so carrying five centre backs (if that’s where Morison is planning to continue to use Ng) is excessive.

Also if Collins’ injury does turn out to be a bad one, the manager will probably need to bring in more cover at left-back.

[The Lone Gunman]

McGuinness might be on a 24 hour call back or similar clause…

Don’t think you can do that these days.

[the other bob wilson]

All in the last year of their contracts I believe apart from McGuinness.

Think this is trying to get some out before bringing at least one more in.

Would have expected Denham to be one of the ones loaned out but sounds like he could be staying.

[olderblue]

Just checked the EFL regulations. Players can only be loaned for half a season or a full season. An early recall clause can only be inserted into full-season loan contracts, and can be activated during the Winter transfer window only.

I hadn't realised that, 👍

[Sparticus_Mills]

Be sad to see Sang go.

[Rjk]

Be sad to see Sang go.

yes but u just can't see him breaking into the side at the moment, I'd rather see Colwill get minutes when they're available

[J R Hartley]

You can’t carry a squad of nearly 30 players.

With all the players we’ve brought in there was obviously going to have to be some going out.

[Undercoverinwurzelland]

Grabban off to West Brom apparently. That's another striker we've been linked with we're not getting.

West brom have missed out on a number of strikers they've been linked with as well, I wonder how far down their list Grabban was and how far down ours we are.

[ManBearPig]

Signing a new left back on loan could be tricky. A young PL prospect would want assurances they will be first choice, which means another season on the bench for Joel which seems a bit harsh.

This time last year, Tom Davies was playing for the first team, wonder how far he is down the pecking order now?

[Undercoverinwurzelland]

And Luke Plange, another striker I've seen us linked with, looks like he's being loaned to RWD Molenbeek (Belgian 2nd division).

[the other bob wilson]

Morison said something about not wanting 32, 33 and 34 year old strikers.

[Carl Dale's Mole]

Good.

That amazing ball by Colwill to Harris yesterday?

A 34 year old doesn't even get to it.

[Maurice Swan]

Morison said something about not wanting 32, 33 and 34 year old strikers.

Absolutely have to agree with that and the rest of his comments.

[Rjk]

In general yes, but I think you can afford one or two exceptions in a squad.

Like Sawyers.

[Rjk]

Like Sawyers.

or Bale

Matej Vydra - 30? Knows the division, not prolific - think he’s back from injury but clubless? Might be wanting a lower premier league club…

think he's expected to be back in October ish

He must be in contention if we can't get someone in by Saturday? Aren't there rules regarding how long you have to recover from a concussion?

We saw that Ng isn't comfortable at left back. The only option I can see other than Davies would be messing the defence around or shoving Ralls/O'Dowda out there

I think it is 7 days, it is 14 for normal people. Some rubbish that because they're elite sportspeople they can recover faster, which is absolute cobblers. If it is 7 days, Bagan can't play.

I'd play O'Dowda there. Bit of a waste but we've got enough wingers and we lose loads not having a left footer at left back. Also means we can keep Ng at CB.
