Crowbar6753 I see Rotherham are making waves in this transfer market:

Sean Morrison
Leo Hjelde (Leeds)
Tariq Fosu
Jordan Hugill
Conor Coventry

Fosu and Hugill should be good acquisitions for them, not to sure about the others. Just wondering if these are good moves or panic stations. I guess we'll soon see.


Yeah I think they are good signings for them, plenty of experience with Morrison, Fosu and Hugill there and Hjelde and Coventry seem like talented prospects at their respective clubs. Feels like they are confident they can stay up with a few additions to their squad.

Cardiff City have appointed former Nottingham Forest boss Sabri Lamouchi as their third manager of the season.

Wasn't exactly a success at Forest after a strong start

Bit of a transfer craze at Huddersfied too with Anthony Knockaert, Martyn Waghorn and Joseph Hungbo all arriving so far and others being lined up apparently.

All seems a bit desperate, might work, might not.

Ross Stewart stretchered off for Sunderland though. Potentially a big loss for them.

He has missed quite a few games already this season and haven't they brought in a striker or two.?

Sunderland are the best team I have seen this season at our level but for their long term interests it might be better if they don't get promoted this season.

They had no striker on the bench at Fulham, I also believe they lost their captain for the season following injury in the Boro game.

Will be a tough game up there whatever though, they were decent against Boro last week

They've lost Ellis Simms as well who's been recalled from loan by Everton.

I think Leeds' Joe Gelhardt is on the verge of a loan move for the remainder of the season and I wouldn't be too surprised if they pulled someone else in before deadline day.

They played really well in the 2nd half tbf. I thought Paul Mullin had a decent all round game. I wonder if he could make the step up to Championship level?

We couldn't afford him, he's on about £5k a week and he's not the highest paid player at Wrexham.
