Thought today had been far too quiet.

Am going to go to bed very early tonight and just see what I wake up to in the morning.

Vickers - shame but not suprised

Azeez - need to keep hold

If anyone didn’t know what a shocking state the club was in before, after today they should do…

We're going to be light on the bench now. And as for Azeez, everything crossed it doesn't happen. Plymouth haven't sold Whittaker yet, and also nothing to suggest we've agreed yet.

So many reasons to hate Dai, but why the fcuk didn't he just sell in the autumn when he had the chance?

IF Azeez does go, who have we got left in the academy to fill the void?

Given how shite the league is, imagine how different this season would've been.

Forgot about Camara. Is he still alive?

Harris to Luton: disappointing, as I think he was our best under 18 player and would've been knocking on the first team door very soon.
Vickers to Brighton: doesn't affect our strongest XI, but does impact squad depth. I think Vickers has struggled physically in League One and a move to Brighton could benefit his as a player.
Azeez to Plymouth: would massively weaken our team, especially without any obvious replacements in the squad - unless Camara comes back from injury or Wellens is much closer to first team football than I currently think.

Monlouis from Arsenal: seems an odd move. I'm not sure we need another CB, given we've got Holmes, Bindon, Dean, Dorsett and Mbengue would can all play there (EDIT: and Mola), as well as players from our U21s. Perhaps it points towards a tactical change in the near future?

We don't know what he means by "the Club". Obviously Bowen and Selles will think that, but the people who matter are Pang and Dai.

Wellens didn't feature for the Unders in the Cup game last night which was slightly unusual. Being Reading I assumed he was injured but perhaps he's pencilled in for the first team bench?

Even if Vickers is the last to go, losing McIntyre, Abbey and Vickers is 3 bodies out of the door with a loaded fixture list coming up. We're in a weaker position, and the worst may not have happened yet.

Very possible. Especially as Vickers has all but left and Azeez could likely leave. Even with Elliott back from Afcon, we'd need an extra player to come from somewhere.

If Vickers does definitely go we better have a decent sell on clause this time. If he does become another Olise then we'll get something from it

Knibbs is another we need to keep badly today. Keep him, Wing, Azeez and Smith at all costs. Lose any of them and our attack is significantly compromised. I'd rather lose Azeez on a free than for £200-300k
