Lundstram would be a brilliant signing, Mcgree I don't know alot about him - he seems to have had a decent half season at Birmingham but his stats aren't blowing me away.

Wilder's not messing around, this could be our best window in years...

I'm starting to think Pulis' philosophy of leaving things late in the window to get a bargain may have been wrong.

To be fair those stats are in an awful team. Hopefully in a better team he’ll get even better stats

Perhaps a daft question but why don't his American club want him?  Just after a quick profit?

I don't know if this is the reason so don't beat me up if I am wrong (the US financial points system is a bit weird), but as a team entering the MLS for the first time Charlotte get a lot of draft players from the college system through the Superdraft (going on right now) including the #1 pick (Bill Bender) who is also a midfielder and so in allowing Riley McGree to go they get allocated points which they can use to acquire other positions.

Heresy. 😆

you will be saying that going to the pub early on deadline day was a bad move too. 😁

Amended to give the 'Pulis down the pub' transfer strategy the recognition it deserves!

Pretty much spot on.

The MLS is weird.

Also Celtic fans melting down on Twitter after giving me pelters all day the other day after I said he was signing for us is brilliant!

Tavernier family are from somewhere in Leeds area if I remember right, so could understand him being fairly happy to return to the area if there is any truth in the whispers. no period of readjustment or getting used to new surroundings.
