Obviously pleased that Lookman is staying, but the bigger question, is have we got a Lookman who is happy to stay or one who has had his head turned by mixing with players earning more than him?
Squad looks very unbalanced. 6 frontline centrebacks is farcical. Pearce is clearly Slade's number 1 and given his age, at some point Konsa is going to have a dip - still begs the question - how do you keep Lennon, Bauer, Texeira and Johnson happy? Personally don't give a monkeys about Johnson but all of the others are going to want to play and we can't loan anyone.
Long term injury upfront or to a wide player and we have an issue.
Johnson will Imo now be made available to leave via a terminated mutual consent announcement
Lookman won't be pissed off why would he, he has never made noises about leaving,
I was told and said on here that I don't believe he will leave this window however depending on game time, team placing within the league and stability of mgr Jan may be a different scenario
It would. Have taken a bid of ridiculous proportion to get him gone
Tex Bauer pearce Lennnon and the other young lad is a strong back line up for chs
Midfield we are light on a box to box with pedigree
And if Holmes gets injured then we will have nothing
Blimey, what a waste. He really should've stayed with us another season. Worth mentioning to Lookman if he ever gets grumpy about missing out on a move to a premier league reserve side.
Credit where it is due to the club and, dare it be said, Meire, they kept Lookman which not many of us expected and have the basis of a decent League 1 squad. While selling Fox for £1m plus would have been good business, that they resisted is an indication that perhaps they are serious about a promotion push.
With Tex staying, unless Slade is an idiot it pushes Johnson down the pecking order. He can be ripe language coach playing a season in the U23's. If he doesn't f**king like it, he needn't f**king turn up.

But good to keep Lookman until January at least.
Shame Bolton have bolstered their team.

Upfront I think we are very strong
Slade is the weakest point in the team Imo
