I'm not averse to signing Stephens cheaply as filler but I would have preferred we had gone after McTominay who would have been an assett for years to come. A large number of Utd fans appear to be saying that he is not good enough for them so that means I'd take him in a heart beat.

Signing Stephens so such a small fee could possibly allow us to go bigger on quaison
I think that ship has sailed - if it was ever in dock.

McTominay would be a fantastic capture, but I'll be :o if United let him go, and even if they did he wouldn't come cheap he's got a long contract.

I haven't seen much of United recently, but I always thought he was one of their better performers last season, so I'd take what their fans say with a large pinch of salt.

Wages would probably be a stumbling block anyway, even if we were interested.

McTominay who Utd gave a new 5 year deal to this summer on around 55k - 60k a week ?

Great bit of business if we sign Stephens an “oven ready” replacement for Hendricks. It’s not a progressive signing but will solve a problem that needs to solved now. That said like most of us I am hoping for more and unlike many I am confident that we will. UTC

Because if he was going to sign it he would of, it was obvious he was running down his contract and going.

Like when Tarkowski was brought in to cover the sale Keane

McTominay started for Man United against Palace.

Just to try and lift the mood, our Swedish friend Robin Quaison still hasn't gone anywhere. Now he really could be a player to get excited about. Could it still be on, especially with Gudders and Brady injured? I do hope so.

From what I'm told the Quaison deal is now off. I believe he is likely to stay with Mainz.

Absolutely not. We were still desperately trying to keep Hendrick long after Brownhill signed. Brownhill replaced Drinkwater who replaced Defour. We are still one short in that area having not replaced Hendrick.

Can't see how he would ever fit into a Dyche team the way he plays to be honest. He's done well for himself eventually since leaving us but he couldn't get into their Championship side last season.

Yes, you said that earlier Tony, but that was before Brady went off injured. The situation could have changed now. Probably not, but I hope it has.

I really doubt that a decision would ever be made on any player after 68 mins.

I'm sure we know everything there is to know about him over months of careful research. If he doesn't come, it's either he's not a good fit, or Mainz or the player want too much money.

Time yet though for people to change their minds.

If that is true, then it would mean we've turned down the 35+5 million, which is good. The club have believed to have already said £50 million.
