    I see it doing the rounds and thought it was a nice photo of our new super strikers. 
    Thanks for ruining it!

    You know that if they played together for us, all the high crosses and set pieces would still go towards May.

    Just for clarity, can I confirm that that’s Etete in the pic above and I guess the suggestion is he isn’t coming?

    Surely needing an extra CB would depend on how we want to set up? If a manager comes in and doesn't want 3 at the back, doesn't that leave us rather overstocked in that area? Not that our CBs have been anywhere near good enough, just seems strange.
    would allow Elerewe & Mitchell to go on much needed NL loans 
    is an NL Loan the best they could fetch? if we are seeing them as good enough to be in and around the first team, surely we should be looking at a L2 Level loan for them?

    Etete is an exciting young prospect. 6’6” and only 21 years old. I also think Alfie May would be delighted. His senior record so far:



    Northampton Aug 21 to Jan 22: 15 starts, 3 goals, 1 assist

    Cheltenham Jan 22 to May 22: 10 starts, 3 goals, 3 assists (all for Alfie May)

    Cardiff 22/23: 12 starts, 3 goals, 1 assist



    However if it’s not Etete, never mind. :-)

    The preference of sending them to the NL is that we can recall them outside of the transfer windows if we had an injury or suspension crisis. If they go to L2 we can only recall in January. So it is about weighing up that risk.

    After riding high on calling the Edun move and then having an absolute nightmare when sharing I heard that Nombe bid had been accepted, (even stupidly taking on Rich Cawley after he denied it & he was right) I am extremely cautious when posting about transfers (nothing to do with people on here, more I don't want to look silly when some things are wrong/don't happen)
    I did hear he was joining but again, I am not 100% convinced as the Nombe one has broken my trust. Dubai seems to be getting good info at the moment so I would be more inclined to see what he says.

    I am suspicious of bringing in more young players in to our already too young squad but Etete seems the safest bet based on his history of playing with Alfie May, real shame if the deal is not able to happen.

    That’s fair enough. I think Dubai and redbuttle are suggesting it’s another player. I think there’s always a lot of moving pieces and people are hearing about pieces which may not sign but we’ve still spoken to.

    Gallen left his list on the desk and as a result, it's Armand Gnanduillet.

    There is a distinct lack of highlights reels this window I would reckon.

    The best place for Mitchell is here, playing the micky mouse cup games and for our u21s.  If it's not we need to abolish the U21s.

    I mean Hector was very good last year, his form has fallen off a cliff but i wouldn't write him off yet. 
    Started casually, improved ,peaked then tailed off last season for me. Seems to have started this season where he left off

    Just for you Seth, this is some of Etete’s best bits from last season in the Championship https://youtu.be/Zh07TGZu3-M?si=sBK-0iGwTmoJdXOK

    Think Elerewe could do L2 I was just thinking that NL can be done outside the window and allows for recalls due to
    first team injury

    Struts around like its beneath him. Made the cock up against PV then started hitting tackles with the aggression and desire required. I hope he isn't playing within himself through fear of injury.

    Interesting one that could allow for an out. Colchester have lost their Southampton loanee CB Nico Lawrence to ankle ligament damage for months according to Ben Garner . Possible move for Deji or Zach Mitchell on loan?

    If we sign Etete, we’re certainly putting our faith in youth for our strikers. May plus 3 that are 21 or under. I guess Aneke is older as well but, like most, I’ve kind of discounted ever see him play meaningful minutes for us again.
