Assuming you’re talking about Evan Ferguson then we don’t have any domestic loan slots left.

Also, he’s far from proven to score if supplied (eleven in fifty nine for Brighton). He’s still potential at this point and any option to buy would be for sixty million plus

anything confirmed or reported on Mangala? Hoping my amateur ACL diagnosis was wrong.

Still worth it if we can send Harrison back.... or, we take a risk on an outside the prem striker. Can we do that with little to spend? Depends if we're looking short term or not I guess

Harrison stays for me, he’s McNeils replacement for the left hand side. Broja goes back and we take another domestic loan. I’ve a feeling he’ll be great on the left, especially if we’re going three at the back.

Leeds aren’t taking Harrison back, he’s here because they don’t want to pay him.

The only way we stand a chance of sending Broja back is if we take someone else off Chelsea’s wage bill.

No it's not to do with his wages he has a clause that if Leeds are not in the prem they have to let him go on loan to a prem team

Harrison can play left wingback and left mid, we should keep him and send back the injured player.

I know it limits us to one* club we can loan from, but it's Chelsea, they're chocker with talent that isn't getting a game.

*one English club for a domestic loan

Probably see specialists today and maybe some indication of severity tomorrow, Moyes did however say after the match that the medical staff had said something like it’s not looking good.

Mangala just seemed like he jarred his knee? I know Moyes said it looked bad but seemed pretty innocuous at the time.

It's whether he's done any ligament damage. I know it seemed pretty innocuous, but having done my own knee ligaments a few times, I can tell you, they don't fix quickly.

Dom certainly looked as though it was more than a grade one so assume grade 2 to 3 minimum 10 weeks before he’s back, maybe for a farewell to Goodison appearance against Southampton.

I was very fortunate.

My idiot dog ploughed full speed (he’s marginally slower than a greyhound) into the side of my knee when I was chatting to another dog owner in the park, forced it inwards and gave me a grade 2 tear of my medial knee ligament.

Saw my physio immediately, and she got me strapped up in a knee brace and I had to keep it straight and immobile for 10 days, sleep with it elevated, avoid any working out, but eat like I was getting ready for Mr Olympia.

Rumour is 4 months for Dom, 9 for big Mangs
