Do we get first dibs seeing as they're at our place? Strang's going to block the exit to the car park and not let them leave till they've signed a two-year deal.

Ravel Morrison would fit beautifully with Taylor Richards as a mid two! I think he'd fit a bit better with Lyle Taylor.

Surprised Jamal Blackman hasn’t been picked up by someone. Type of GK I was hoping we’d go for once Mannion left.

Carl Jenkinson played for England. Good spot, probably the biggest fall from grace of any on that list, he played almost 100 Premier League matches for Arsenal and West Ham before trying his luck in Australia. Obviously trying to resurrect his career back at home. 32 years old is not too old to get a spot in a League 1 club you wouldn't have thought (not that I am advocating us moving for him!)

I've never heard of this PFA Squad meat-market lark. Is it a new innovation? Who manages it--or is there more than one manager who's also on approval? Does it descend upon other hapless clubs?
It feels like parallel football, rather like that bloke pointlessly BALANCING a ball on his shoulder blades at half-time against Crawley.
It has all the allure of a Tuppawear party. That said, I might try to sneak in with a fake UNIVERSITRY CARD or purloin Ravel's disabled parking permit.

Carl Jenkinson could be handy if Lennett gets flogged.
Wouldn't mind a bit of Gayle either tbh.
Yet somehow I imagine we come out of this match with 2 fresh injuries and no new players. Ho hum.

Monk didn't play him much at Brum so guess he will not be coming here - good signing though if LB is off Waghorn is experienced, Morrison could be a Wes or a Lyle signing!!

Morrison would be a Walker signing.

Ravel Morrison. How the mighty have (inevitably) fallen... And likely possesses more natural talent than most English players. Shame, he is properly ace when motivated and focused.

This is always the thing that gets trotted out about Morrison... but if he is so preternaturally gifted he does a very good job of hiding it, given he only seems to have put in about 15 good performances in his entire career, all in lower or "lesser' leagues. His entire reputation as this incredibly talented football really all does seem based on him being quite good at age 15 & frankly, you'd think even with the worst application or attitude in the world, there'd have been more than just occasional flashes of real ability over a 14-year career. I suspect the truth is that, having been repeatedly given chances & found out at the top level across several countries, he simply never was as elite a talent as he was made out to be.

Morrison is a ticking time-bomb. See? Like this:
