At this stage of the window I’m now less concerned about who might yet be coming in than I am about who might suddenly be leaving.

Anyone other than maybe Yarmo would be a major weakening of the squad.

Why do I have this nagging fear that GSB are going to pull the rug out from underneath what seems to be a pretty good window so far?

I imagine this will be the 16 year old defender from Dundee (or Dundee Utd)

Ignore the soft ‘c’and extra syllables

We’ve got Vlasic
An Instant Classic
I just don’t think you understand
He’s David Moyes’s man
Lingard had to stay close to his nan
We’ve got Nikola Vlasic

I'm at work so haven't been able to keep bang up to date. I wondered if anyone had said anything 'official' to rule it out.

As for who cares? We have Vlasic. Hopefully Vlasic can at least match the goals & assists Lingard got for us in half a season.

Would rather Hlozek, but beggars can't be choosers.

Would tally up more with the Hlozek link earlier, I would have thought.

Am I right to be worried there's still no sign of a back up striker for when Antonio inevitably gets injured?
Or has Moyes seen something in training from one our squad that could fill in for that scenario?

I think Doig is too much money to be labeled a "nominal fee", but it's probably a U23 player

Not a chance I'd have thought. Hlozek will be the guts of £10m, that tweet gives the impression this potential deal would be closer to 6 figures.

We'll probably go for a striker in January and maybe revisit Lingard.

Hope we have enough til then
