Wildsmith & Cole to leave. Wallace could be offered 1 more yr. Dike depends on fitness. I expect Diakite & Grant will be offered a new contract. Maja is obvs a top player but he’s been fully fit for 4 months in his contract so far. Will be offered one. #wba

Ignoring the obvious quality of the players we've signed, I love the personality of the players too. Reading Campbell's interview, he seems like a top bloke. Finally feeling like we can have an affiliation with the players again, something that's been missing for years #wba

Final week of the transfer window, and we still look short. Priority would be full backs, but for me I think we’re missing quality from four positions: - LB - RB - Winger (Fast) - GK I expect we’ll make use of the loan market so expect it to go to deadline day. #wba

£3.5m for Furlong is a great fee. He gets a lot of unfair criticism, but that fee for a 29YO (30 in Oct) is fantastic business. Let’s hope we can use that money on a few players. Losing Furlong this close to Sat is a risk though, hopefully we’re close to a replacement #wba

Fellows has had 1 good season and doesn’t do what most richer clubs want their wingers to do which is cut in and shoot. Hence why there’s been barely anyone interested. Think about it, if you thought 10mill was a bargain, wouldn’t lots of teams be lining up? #wba

More disappointed by the fee rather than him leaving. He’s been poor this season, but there’s no doubting he has excellent qualities. Hopefully there’s a significant sell on and other add ons #wba

The next few days in the transfer window will be crucial. I imagine we expected the sale of Fellows so I’d predict we have a replacement close Let’s hope we move quicker than usual #wba

Let’s take a minute to realise that we’ve replaced: Bartley, Heggem, Taylor and Ajayi (McNair and Holgate too) (£9m) For Phillips, Campbell, Bielik and Mepham (£5m) Insane business #wba

One thing to be aware of is that due to the number of changes to the squad (of the 20 man squad v Luton end of last season, only 10 remain if Fellows goes), it will take time for the new signings to bed in. It's not going to be an instant fix. We need patience. #wba

Hard to see the image but 27 players listed in the squad last season, 13 have left (including Fellows). A huge overhaul of players. Patience is required #wba

Big day tomorrow, I still think we’re 2, maybe 3 short. LB and RW crucial Dike & Bany to return after international break will improve us, but the bench looked very short yesterday. Either way, it’s going to be exciting! #wba

Interesting one that we’re not properly replacing Fellows, but it’s a fair point re Mikey. He’s lost his effectiveness cutting inside recently, so maybe going down the right and crossing will be more effective. #wba
