I finally make the decision and sell Joel Periera after just 1 season. With the arrival of Dragowski his starts have been limited so i don't want him back because he too good of keeper to just sit bench. He joins Sheff Wed for 500K. The other deal was Hutchinson goes out loan again this time to Chestersfield.

Player Signing

Deadline Day deals
View attachment 149316View attachment 149315
Two deadline day deals one in one out. First deal was Bradley Whitehead leaving for Reading on 500K deal. Whitehead had been a great player for us and grown a lot but he has dropped down the pecking order a lot sitting fifth behind Bennett, Samizadeh, Krameric and Samuel, he really only championship standard now. The second deal was finalised with only 2 hours remaining Swedish full back Henrik Forsgren joins us from Valencia for 6M. He will a great replacement for Ake.

League Table

We sit a healthy 8th place but I'm aiming for that 6th place as I don't feel 7th is a safe enough place to gain Europa League placement
