Hound Actually it was slightly flippant regarding Ejaria but I guess that’s the only way this one could work
On a very small sample of comments it looks like Laurent has done ok there but if he’s unhappy they may let him go if they got something in return

paultheroyal Just how is this even possible. His wages are probably 3 times higher than our alleged £8k bar. If loan deal then we have to start shuffling the pack unless some are sent back. How could he possibly fall out of favour so soon yet put in a stella performance on Saturday. Be shocked and perplexed if this happens.

South Coast Royal The way I heard it was that Joao would go to Stoke.
With Joao hardly getting any game time would he actually be missed?
Many of us would like to see Joao stay but clearly he is not a favourite (currently) with the manager.

Not sure we're actually limited to 8k/week anymore, I think we just have an overall wage budget of ~£16.5m that we have to abide by.

Hound Wouldn’t be against that actually
Like Joao but he can’t be too happy and isn’t getting proper game time

Hound Ince confirms we’re looking at midfielders this window. Does seem to be some legs in this one

I doubt it but P.Ince already thinks we could use another forward option, so losing one (quality) forward in exchange for a midfielder might not be something P.Ince is too interested in entertaining.
It might mean more opportunities for Azeez though as a forward and possibly a younger player though.

The trouble is he appears to be made of balsa wood.

YorkshireRoyal99 We wouldn't be able to get another player in if Joao moved out and Laurent moved in, we'd have to move someone else on first (Ejaria).
I don't think P.Ince would want to leave us any lighter up front considering that Carroll has a history of injury issues, Long has had a couple of knocks this season and Azeez is prone to one as well.
I don't think it's the worst piece of business ever if that was to be the case though, Laurent in midfield would probably be more effective than Joao up top for us. Wouldn't say he'd be our best midfielder but he'd still be able to add something different nonetheless.

I'm all for this move as i would be confident it would make us a better team especially having Laurent back and hopefully bossing the midfield, something we've missed all season.
On the flip side, it really scares me sending arguably our most prolific and natural goal scorer when on form to a fellow divisional rival currently sitting below us in the league. If Joao hits form at Stoke then they're comfortably safe!!!
