Well, this is the best transfer window and international tournament in my living memory - what a treat.

Curious as to how you think the signings will fit in to a formation? My guess would be 4-2-3-1 with Pantillimon in goal, a back four of Darikwa (Byram should he sign) Dawson, Figuerido and Robinson. Midfield pair of Watson and Osborn (Colback if he signs), three behind the striker - Dias, Goncalves and Carvalho with Soudani or Grabban upfront. Strong bench too which will include Worrall, Guediora, Cash, Lolley and potentially Osborn.

I agree or a 3-4-3 with back 3 or Dawson, Fig and Robinson, midfield four of Cash, Watson, Carvalho and Osbourn and front 3 of Soudani, Grabban and Dias.

I also think he may rotate a fair bit and expect him to give the Portuguese lads a slow start maybe bringing them off the bench in early months and starting Cash, Lolley etc more until he is happy then are settled though I guess with us doing business early and them all having full preseason if they do well in preseason then he might just throw them straight in!

Good call RR I think we will see more 3 at the back than a rigid 4 which is why he let Eric go.
