Some reports saying we might be interested in signing Omar Elab­del­laoui from Olympiakos.
We were linked in January, so who knows?
Between him or Gumny, if we sign either it will (hopefully) resolve our RB issue.
We all seem to want Melling, murmurs that the deal is close but I’ve yet to see any confirmation from the club.
On a side note: would be strange to have 3 Norwegian defenders in our starting lineup if Omar and Melling were to sign!

Would be adventitious to have 3 from same country. More chance of settling quickly.

I don’t see an RB problem. Elhamed looks class so far.
Few mistakes, but so have the rest of the squad.
Desperately need a LB and a CH even if julien comes food. I can see ajer or jozo going in this window.

El hamed isn’t the problem mate, it’s the lack of cover if anything happens that’s the problem! No cover for right back no cover for left back! Severely lacking at left wing, Morgan ain’t near good enough and Johnston cannot be counted on to play 50 games a season! Big problems not just at the back for me, it’s all over! I also think we could do with a defensive midfielder brought in!

Agree with everything above here really!
I like the look of Elhamed so far myself.
And I’m still hopeful the other lads come good, but if anything we need the cover and tbh I thought Elhamed was going to be that guy. Maybe more of our utility defender.
I’m guessing we won’t know if we get either of the Norwegian lads until after their CL fate is decided.
But what a baptism of fire they could have if they played at ibrokes 😳.

Hatem is injured and a doubt for tomorrow. : (.
