I know people say what’s the point of bringing someone in right now but I would rather start building a championship team and let them play the rest of the season so they can start to gel and play how Rob wants them to.
Looks like Gomes is coming and Armstrong. Armstrong can be prolific but if we were to come back up we would need better as I don’t think he is prem quality especially when he was last in the league.

Armstrong is just a weird one-he scores reasonably well for Southampton, yet they are prepared to let him go-he did nothing at Albion and that's what makes this weird

QS - he is on circa £60k a week, They have little choice but to sell.
If Wolves buy him though, without some fairly careful structuring of his contract - see idea above - Wolves will be the ones with the problem in 12 months time.
Finance is boring but mess it up - as Jeff/Fosun has done - and the consequences are very serious for clubs both on and off the pitch!
