ANTONIO LATEST

Sky sources also understand the deal to take Michail Antonio from Nottingham Forest to West Ham has hit a "stalemate".

Sources close to the player are not confident a deal can be struck in time to beat the 6pm deadline.

So where would this leave us having just signed Mendes? Would he play Antonio up front?

does that mean if Antonio stays you have to get rid of another player to accommodate this new signing?

I think Paterson is off to Huddersfield on loan Blackstarr, so that would free up a further place, but Paul Taylor is supposed to be signing as well? All rather complicated!

so what's new,at NFFC why do it easy

We currently have three places after McLaughlin went to Southend. They go to Taylor, Mendes, O'Grady.

If Antonio, Mancienne, and Pato leave that gives us three more.

Williams ? Defensive midfielder ? Goalkeeper?

Also liked with Stevie May from Wednesday. Can you imagine if we could land O'Grady and May, what a strike force that would be?

Think Preston are getting Steve May

Stevie May.........noooooooooooooooooooooo. I'd rather have Tyler Walker up front. Actually, I'd rather have Des Walker up front.

(probably even take Roy Walker).

We have to take what we can get Sir Nicholas.

We do need more of a physical presence up front and in midfield.

What about Des Lynam or Des Lyttle again

What's Dele Adebola up to these days?

Marvin Sordell on a free?

Sordell would be better than some we have been looking, we could probably do worse.

Sordell hasn't had a look in at Burnley. Wouldn't be ready to slot straight into the team O'Grady is the better option IMO.

So did Mendez and schelotto sign then? Either of them any good?

Neither have been confirmed as yet. O'Grady is the only done deal on a season long loan and Patterson has gone to Huddersfield on a identical deal.

Ok are we kinda reliant on one of them trying to fill that big Antonio shaped hole?

Still got the loan market if nothing happens today.

That's 6pm...

"Still got the loan market if nothing happens today."

We've heard that one so so many times.
