DM was asked quite a lot about potential transfers by the press. Played it just right, tell them what he wants them and other clubs to hear.

It sounds like they've got an eye on some players.

Interesting response when asked about Wickham. I wonder if there is a chance he could come here IF Paterson does go North? Probably not but would make some sense because Id assume we are expecting some cash for Paterson which might give us room to sign a better calibre of centre half whilst presumably getting Wickham at a reasonable rate (Im guessing will want a signing on fee), although I also wonder if Ipswich and Plymouth will be sniffing around him.

Re the Paterson situation, whats that all about? Either DC is talking to them and not told DM (I cant see that) or they are flying a kite, which is what it sounds like based on what DM said.

Still makes me laugh (in a 'this is ridiculous' way) that we couldnt find a centre half for £5M back when we signed bloody vAken, surely there were McGuinness and Storey type players about back then, even if we were looking for more of a finished product, but no we signed a bloody biscuit man that turned like the Titanic.

At the end of the day, we are only going to know about a new player when its announced and not before, as weve said before.

We couldn’t find a centre back because the man pulling Chansiri’s strings back then, wasn’t aware of him or, more likely wasn’t about to make as much money out of it.

I think @Dronowl66 made some decent points that have got lost amidst the potential racist claim, which I think was clumsy at the very least. There might well be some who are anti him on those gro

Forgive me for being a bit dumb here but "officially" he's there player so how can they not recall him due to the ban they are currently serving? 

He’s not registered in their EFL squad this season….

Just a bump…. I’d appreciate thoughts on this. For me it seems bonkers!

That's simply got to be absolute nonsense. 

Have they got a club shop?

tbh if they cant recall him and we manage to keep him that would be huge.

However, I suspect it might increase the chances of them selling him and you'd think there would be some interested parties out there at Championship level. Its whether they could command a fee that matches his potential which might open the door for us.

Lets face it hes leaving. If I was DM Id leave him out of the team and use those that are staying. On Saturdays showing I dont think his commitment is there.

Off ya pop Fiz. Adeniran had more about him when he came on. 

Let him go in January with a healthy sell on clause. If he chooses to sign a pre-nup and wait the season out then he's still young enough to play in the 21s and that's where he stays. If we're desperate I'd rather give Shipston the shirt than anyone who's mind is elsewhere.

When Dele-Bashiru is on it, there is nobody in this division that can get anywhere near him, thing is we haven't seen him do it on a consistent basis that we need.

Thought he looked totally dis intrested against Newcastle, personally think he's off & his agent has "got in his head"

Just a thought but could we throw a cheeky bid of £500,000 Cardiffs way for McGuinness considering the predicament they are in? Be nice for us to take advantage instead of other teams taking advantage of us for once....

They have no reason to accept the bid

Cardiff's embargo has nothing to do with being skint it's because they won't pay the fee due for that lad who died in the plane crash. Won't rather than can't.

It's probably just a routine thing for such as them.  He's the right age and available for free or for a nominal amount soon. Background? Came up through Man City.  What does he do well?  **Watches video with multiple spectacular goals and player shouldering big blokes off of the ball.  Bits showing doziness and being caught in possession do not feature.**

Just seen some other bits about it… Hopefully there’s a replacement ready if he does go

Yeah he’s called Connor Wickham.

Puts tin hat on. I’m not asking for him to be signed btw. Someone will probably say he’s already signed for Plymouth or someone. 😀

If Cardiff sell then they can't spend the money in this window. 

Think it was Reesh who said the same in an earlier post. 

Agree. Wasn’t particularly thinking then spending it, more just managing cash flow which could be an issue this close to the pandemic close down. 
I agree there’s not much in it for them.

Maybe we will get him back, please let it be so, be another boost.

Does anyone know how player registrations work?

Presumably, McGuiness is registered with SW until it’s transferred back to CC. But if FIFA/EFL won’t, yet, allow CC to register him, doesn’t he remain, technically, our player until a decision is made in their favour and the paperwork is approved by EFL, even though he might be training with Cardiff’s squad?

So if decision is made after January…
Decision goes our way: he’s stays registered with us. 
Decision goes against us: it’s too late for his registration to be transferred to CC. It stays with us.
Either way, CC can let MM resume back at SW or have him spend 5 months twiddling his thumbs. Surely, they’d rather he played and was paid by us?

So would another three weeks of FIFA/EFL procrastination work in our favour?

Cardiff have paid £7m to Nantes as the first installment of the Sala deal.

They hope this will get FIFA to lift the 3 window transfer embargo

When asked if they would be looking for a replacement for the 22-year-old centre back, who was back training with the Bluebirds this week, Moore told the media, “It’s possible… We’ve got people here who can deputise and fill in. We’ll have a look in the market if needs be to fill that place, and we’ll look at our injury situation that we’ve got with our central defenders in here.

“But it’s an opportunity, we feel, for one or two in the camp to step up and into his shoes… The only irons in fires for us is preparing for Wycombe Wanderers.”

I had an inside track to say it was all but agreed - subject to Patterson agreeing or not 

DM has spent many an interview denying it, said he was waiting for a phone call from his mate.

He was saying same last year about Sylla Sow

Iorfa will probably get the middle slot in a back 3 but, to me, he works better when he's not the dominant centre half. If he goes down then we have no fit recognised middle centre half. We're down to Palmer, Famewo and James. Bakinson has deputised in there before and we've stuck Johnson in a back 3 last season. 

Ihiekwe must be closer than we think or we're announcing somebody on Monday

There was talk yesterday that Lee Gregory is attracting interest from two championship clubs and a league one side.

Would you let him leave? I wouldn’t, I think he’s one of the more intelligent players we’ve got. Obviously the only downside this season with him though is that his scoring output hasn’t been as impressive as last term.
