Have a friend of friend is an ex-Luton player so close with Nathan Jones and ex-Luton players, caught up with them today and said that Dan Potts was a done deal to us, that we had also been interested in Harry Cornick but he didn’t want to leave Bristol City. Unsurprisingly Isted has also been told he’ll only be 3rd choice so very keen to move on and hoping Barnsley come in for him.
Barnsley signed a new keeper this week plus the manager who was in charge when Isted was there as left
I can’t believe Devante Cole is still a free agent and that we don’t really go after him
We’ve got five first team strikers, we don’t need six. The budget would be much better spent elsewhere. I only see that changing if someone leaves or Leaburn’s going to be out longer than expected.
Also he's terrible
Agree, whenever I've seen him he doesn't look very good but got around 20 goals last season, maybe we're his bogey team?
Another left back isn't what we need with Small, Edwards and Edun already at the club
Got a feeling Small may go.
I was told that if Small were to go he would be worth at least 2 years of Nathan Jones' salary - which would straight away justify his appointment since he was instrumental in getting him here.
I hope he stays, gets settled with us and helps drive us to promotion

Small looks like one of the ones who’s really sold on this pre season. I would be really surprised if he goes anywhere. He and Josh Edwards look like they’re really going to push each other this year.
Clearly Jones doesn’t rate Edun as a wing back so I just can’t see him signing off on letting him go unless someone offers silly money. At which point, no club in league one can say no.

If Small's agent could find him a move for approx £10k a week, he wouldn't be interested as he's enjoying pre-season and the Slovenian lakes in his socks?
Seasonal sentiment has well and truly kickstarted ;-)

I felt Edun looked comfortable in CM, understand it was against Dartford. There could be something in there for him if Jones is happy enough to give him that chance.

Ahead of who ? Anderson, Coventry , Berry and Docherty all ahead of him , plus we’ve still got Taylor and the Scottish Ben Reeves

Who says he has to be ahead of any of them? You need a squad of players across a season. He'll be "ahead" of whoever is injured, suspended or has lost form over the course of the year

Are we still restricted to a squad of 22 (not including goalkeepers and under 21s)?

Can play CB though right?
Potts is 5 ft 8, not a CB
1.83m according to transfermarkt so around 6ft
That's the only place I've seen him listed as that. On the official Premier League site he's listed as 1.72 and that seems to be what pretty much every other football stats site has him as. He's apparently 1.78 so 5ft10 according to EA as well. I imagine that most sites just find the height written somewhere and copy it so whoever gets there first likely sets the general statistic right or wrong. Football Manager has him at 1.81 though so I'm inclined to go with that. Either way I think we can say he's likely between the heights of 1cm and 6000m

I literally said if someone offers silly money then it may happen. That goes both ways in terms of club and player.
But realistically, is someone going to come in and offer him that after a failed loan to Scotland and a half decent dozen or so games in league one?

I’ve seen him play live a couple of times, no chance he’s 6 foot. I know it’s difficult to judge sometimes but I would have said 5”9/10 is about right, certainly no taller,

Don't think so except NJ wanted a smaller squad, but even if we are it wouldn't be an issue:
Keepers + U21 not included Mannion, AMB, Isted, New Keeper, Small, Anderson, Leaburn, Kanu, Mbick, Casey, Assimwe, Z Mitchell, Campbell, Bower, Hindenberg, Huke, Kedwell, Toure

Squad over 21
Ramsey, REG, A Mitchell, Watson, Ness, Jones, Gillesphy, Edwards, Berry, Docherty, Coventry, Taylor, Ahadme, Godden, Aneke, Edun, Fraser.
So only 17 over 21 with maybe 2-3 due in. Plus that includes Fraser, Ness and Edun all of whom may still leave yet.
He's gone to KAA Gent:
