James Nursey now saying we are in for Martin Olsson as part of the Dorrans deal: good player but really don't understand the insistance on signing a LB!!!

Also we have apparently enquired about Amalfitano! What a joke we are becoming in the transfer market.

---

We are also confirmed to be interested in Darren Fletcher and Etienne Capoue.

Both quality players but we need WINGERS!!

...but if Pulis doesn't really rate the 2 LB's we have then IMO Olsson would be a cracking buy - rate him highly.
Amalfitano.....think I've heard of him......well, it's a new broom now and I'd LOVE to see him back.

Obviously with Ideye now gone the HUUUUGE priority is another striker - well, at least 1.
If Olsson and Amaltifano come in that'd be good, a striker HAS to come too - can't wait to see who, as I'm certain Ideye wouldn't been released if there wasn't a replacement lined up.

Fasten your seatbelts........

2 strikers, 2 wingers, a left-back and maybe a right-back would be great. I doubt all that will happen though and it appears that we want a centre midfield for some reason.

Really don't get this Olsson deal i like him but he's an attacking LB not sure if Tony Pulis will let him thrive and let him play his usual style the jury is out on this one for me!

I'm sure I've seen this before, do you have twitter/have you posted it twice?

If Pulis is happy with it I'm sure he'll be willing to play him. He doesn't seem like a Pulis signing though.

Yes i stuck it on twitter, I like him as a player but if asked to just defend i'm not sure he'll be that good a signing for us we shall see but one thing for sure is he was never TPs first choice

A decent aging striker who was playing in Italy was meant to have had a medical with us at the end of the last January window but we didn't sign him. Can anyone remember his name? It's been on my mind today.

That was messing with my mind, hopefully we'll get him and start him.

Was it Quagliarella? We did pursue him in summer 2013.

Yes that's him (some of my facts may have been wrong) ta.

On the subject of strikers, wtf is happening? Carlton cole (donkey) being linked with QPR and Lambert to Villa (wouldn't mind him).

Berahino will probably go in the summer window so I'd prefer younger players.

Right transfers are about to come in ...........

The beefmeister has returned from work

So with all the outgoings we must have at least 4 ready to come in

Right

Laughable listening to WM on the way in saying we made a huge loss on Ideye,

They still seem to think we paid £10 Million for him

Oh great

Outgoings look pretty good and some of the worse links seem to be disappearing but I've accepted that we'll know very little today and our new stars will be announced today.
