Hopefully these players will now look to Berahino and think their futures lie at the hawthorns but i'm not sure it will happen these big boys will throw shit loads of money at them ie decent wage,buying mom and dad a house etc etc all the old tricks
I honestly can't see Sinclair,Dhanda,Brown ever breaking into the Liverpool and Chelsea sides such a shame

According to Steve Madeley, Albion have now (finally) agreed a fee with Chelsea for Izzy Brown which will mean no tribunal. No word on how much it is, but we know what Jeremy's like, so hopefully he's milked Chelski for a good few quid.
The club are also apparently aware of the Leko interest, but no bids have come in. They're still hopeful of keeping hold of him. Given what's happened in the past though, I fear we'll have a fight on our hands...

Small update to the loaned out section that completely passed me by:
Reiss Greenidge- CB - 18 - On loan at Port Vale until January
Only moved to Port Vale a week or so ago. 6'5" ball-playing centre back. Looks good on this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IOzAkXkAwLo#t=51 Previously linked to Chelsea as well.

I know he isn't ready to play up top on his own, but maybe scrapping off Anichebe/Ideye he can bag some goals. He is a natural finisher and I think is wasted out wideStriker every time,looks at home there.Out wide indifferent.

Always good to see us smash the Seals at any level! Some great technique on show.

This is a really interesting topic to cover in a thread - thank you, and good luck keeping up the good work.

Chike Kandi - the former Chelsea striker who was on trial a few weeks back has signed for Brighton on a 2 year deal, I will remove him from the OP

Blackburn Rovers U21 2-2 West Brom U21
Goals from Samir Nabi and Taylor Campbell for Albion.
Interestingly, Kemar Roofe and Liam O`Neill were not involved, however Adil Nabi captained the side. Indicating AI probably wants Roofe and O`Neill on the bench/starting tomorrow night.

These Nabi brothers could be quite special in a Year or two
