What I would really like to see today is to off load all of our "Deadwood" What players do you think are "Deadwood" and who would you like to see leaving the club?
Is this the first transfer window no one has bid for Deeney? Take your pick okaka, prodl, success, penaranda, .,. Nothing on social media.... Loaned out ?
The deadwood can go to Europe later in the month. The focus today is closing any further deals we have planned, accepting that we will probably miss out on Sarr if Zaha moves.
Can leave regardless Zeegelaar, Okaka, Prodl, Success (loan but in England) Penaranda (loan but in England) Dahlberg or Bachmann (loan but guaranteed No.1 status) Cucho (higher up La Liga) Foulquier Dependant on incomings Janmaat Chalobah (on loan) Kabasele Sema (if two wide players come in)
I still think Prodl is a good squad player. I think we need five centre backs or at least five players who can play in a back three or in the centre as a back four. Dawson, Cathcart, Mariappa seem like they are this seasons first choices. Kabaselle or Prodl - to my mind its a close call on which is better.
Now the buying is over, unless we manage to find another player or two that are out of contract who will compliment our team of course, it is now time to shift our mass of deadwood, and the sooner we can get them off the wage bill the better, so lets get on with it.

Getting another Lukebakio-esque fee for Penaranda who has done... Nothing for what feels like years now (not necessarily through fault of his own) would be impressive.
I would not be unhappy to see him leave even if he finally went on to greater things, but somehow I doubt he ever will.
The trouble is ALL of our defenders fit into the "decent squad player" category. We've not got a single "first team" defender at the club.
Penaranda and Okaka gone. Time running out for Prodl and Zeegelaar... Surely Dahlberg or even Bachmann need a move before the day is out?! Window in Italy just closed so it seems only one goes to Udine...
