Would probably take most of them.The two at 34 years old in Richie and Albrighton I’m not so sure on.But guess would be short term so maybe.

Looks like the Yorkshire Post is heading the same way as The Examiner...

Is short termism part of the 3 year plan ?

Is short termism part of the 3 year plan ? I would have thought short termism to get us away from our current predicament would be a perfectly acceptable part of the 3 year plan. |

Isn't demanding KN pays shitloads of money (risking FFP sanctions) also short termism so detox's post makes no sense anyway. |

Tariqe Fosu is 29. Anwar El-Ghazi is 28. Matty Longstaff is 23. None of these would be seen as a short termist approach. Whether they are realistic or not is a different thing. All of them would improve the squad. |

Onomah is a weird one. Offered a contract at PNE & turned it down. Trial at Stoke, no offer of a contract.
I was hoping in the summer we'd chance our arm, but I do wonder why he's not got a contract anywhere. On paper, would be a great signing. But something seems not quite right.

Sounds like a wage expectation issue to me |

I would suggest the entire article is nothing but clickbait and is largely to be ignored.
I’m not saying we may not be interested in one or more of those suggestions, but there’s no evidence of this in the article whatsoever and it is based purely on the circumstance that they are available, hence the odds. There’s zero intel from agents or otherwise in the article; of all the platforms, Sports Lens would be close to the bottom of the pile for knowing who were interested In; they’re just a betting platform masquerading as a news channel.

Must admit, I thought the same as I posted it. But as Gag_N_Bone_Man says - it's something to talk about. Some players we could conceivably be interested in. Would we want them etc. Not the best source & probably says more about the decline in standard of "free at point of use" regional sports coverage than anything about our club. |

If Onomah is a free agent why have we not brought him in sooner.

El-Ghazi likes a political tweet. Got binned off for it by his last club. Think maybe we swerve that one considering the pelters KN gets.

Might depend upon the nature of the post.
If he'd just left it at condemnation of the Israeli response it might (or might not) have led to a different outcome.
Certainly, if it hadn't included any antisemitism he'd have been easier to sympathise with.

Using facts on a fan site is surely a yellow card. |
