I usually don't bag our old players, but Herd and Lowry were certainly not amongst our top players back then.

I can remember Southampton beating Villa 6-0 and they looked lost. Mane scored four.

Ask a Villa fan what they think of them.

Deadline day in UK so here's hoping Souttar gets the move sorted. Loan to buy would be fine as he'd probably just go back to Leicester and get sold on anyway.

Robertson's injury happened at the worst possible time - could've been playing in the Prem otherwise 

Sonny Kittel confirmed on loan till the end of the season 

Tyrese Francois loaned to Vejle Boldklub, second last in Danish top tier.

Rumours Leeds offering loan to buy for Souttar.

Thats pretty decent actually

Oooh make that one happen

Honestly souttar and hrustic to anywhere is good

Triantis to Hibs. Monty is a godsend for us. Saving so many Australian players. 

Portsmouth have signed Owen Moxon from Carlisle who'll fill the Robertson void. I don't think Robertson will return to Portsmouth. Besides, he should be up for a Championship loan next season.

Oh that's great news. A good loan. An exciting AA deadline day.

Better than nothing but some momentum has been gained in discussions between Hrustic and Kaiserslautern. The issue is the wage distribution. Kaiserslautern just made the German cup semi final and with a bit of luck they'll make the final against Leverkusen who'll be automatically in Europe so Kaiserslautern would be guaranteed European football. 

Talks of Solanke to Spurs. I really hate that. A player finally proves himself at a lower club then invariably blows it by trying to go up again. Be the big fish in the small pond for a while.

The live blog is kind of annoying. Not enough EFL news which is always hectic.

I believe Man City will recall him in the meantime to rehab and in the off-season he'll move again

Hrustic loan to Serie B Ascoli sees on the cards.

what grade is the tear? Asian cup u23 isn't until April 15 so he might be ok by then

hrustic to heracles

yes

now just souttar to go....please happen

what a perfect transfer window so far

Gosh it's better than not playing but going to a relegation candidate in Holland... what a fall for really who was our most important player heading into the 22WC.

Francois Denmark loan official.

Isaac Hayden leaves Liege to QPR so less competition for O'Neill. They don't appear to have a replacement.

Still a lot of mixed messaging about Souttar. Apparently Leeds were very keen but Leicester objected. Fuck Leicester. Souttar needs a loan at the very least. It's beyond ridiculous now. 

Hrustic conducting a medical at Heracles. That's so much better than Serie B.

Triantis to Hubs official. 

Souttar to Leeds won't happen while we are a mathematical chance of taking top and still have a home fixture to play them.

Gauci deal confirmed. 1.5M€ until 2028.

Good news.

Heracles used to be in the Dutch top div, but I think they've been relegated, and may have been promoted again?

The Eredivisie has some really big clubs with cosntent UEFA intra-continental pedigree to play against - Ajax, PSV and Feyenoorde. These clubs histotically provide most of the players for the Dutch national team besides Dutch footballers playing in UEFA Big Five clubs overseas.

They are currently in the Eredivisie but just above relegation zone atm. Hopefully they will stay up and Hrustic will get plenty of minutes.

This is a concern. I'm generally not in favour of our players going to big Euro clubs where the player has little prospect of getting much game time. That's not to say that there can't be a decent exceptions, as we have seen with Robertson's loan from Man City to Portsmouth. I really want a GK to challenge Ryan for the 26 WC spot and Gauci seems the obvious candidate at this stage. My fear is that he will end up spending years warming the pine and feeding off scraps of an occasional cup game here and there, just as Langerak did at Dortmund (29 games over 5 seasons). It's difficult to see him challenging Ryan for the NT spot if hes not playing. Someone suggested Martinez would help Gauci but I don't think that's a given. Maybe he has a record of helping other keepers that I'm unaware of but otherwise it shouldn't be taken as a given he will help. Grabara certainly didn't roll out the welcome mat for Ryan. I hope Gauci will get a loan move to a club that plays good football and where he plays every week and develops into the best option for us in goal in 26, or at least can seriously challenge Ryan.

Hrustic going from Hellas to Heracles .... wtf, is it with Dutch and Italian clubs copying Australian club names :P lol

Tyrese Francois has gone on loan to Velje in Denmark where he’ll get some much needed first team football.

Rai Marchan has joined La Liga 2 side Albacete since I leaving Victory. It’s interesting that he never played any higher than the third tier before coming to Australia but ends up in the second tier after falling out of favour at Victory.

Can Souttar still happen? 

To Leeds? It was never a thing.

Leeds shed a lot of players this window, again. around 10 out and we were only interested in getting in Connor Roberts.
