Jasper:
I am told we are still hyper confident on our targets, and expected couple more to of been done by now. Agents don't help, but from what I hear all is good. Honestly do NOT want to get dragged into names etc. I am like everyone else in hoping. Names are out there, plus a surprise Argentinian which is 70/30 in our favour. I do not know who but what I was told.
Goat:
The Goat was told that Edwards is staying. Apparently we are confident he will sign terms.
Also, Trippier is going to drag on a bit, but we have concerns over Walkers long term injury problem.
Told we are looking at Martial and McCarthy but we need to sell first.

Compared to last off season and previous ones since AVB days that were a shambles.
we are very organized and all agreed on targets and the capabilities of them.
Some really Exciting young players and really good choices.
On McCarrthy: he would be plan x as not really mentioned
On Mat Ryan: I have said it once and will repeat again, this is not happening. shame though as really like him.
Trippier is looking good as done now apparently so i believe but wait a few weeks for the press or club to confirm.
Trix on COYS responding to someone complaining about our transfer approach under ENIC in recent time:
Disagree. Complete change of approach this window. Multiple targets identified pre window, and we have been making moves to bring them in early. Take a look around, very little business is being done anywhere atm and for good reason, as players are all either on holiday or International duty. Too much is being made of this we must sell to bring in imo. Yes we need to move players on in order to bring in the 4-5 we would really like, but that is due to wages not transfer fee's. It is not a case of we must move one out before one comes in. Far more to be positive about this window, than at any other time since Enic have been in charge imo.
trix on suggestions the trippier deal is dragging out because levy is trying to save a few quid: Nothing to worry about with this one, the financials are all sorted.
