Your not really applying a fair comparison. Inter-Nordic transfers for an untested player will always appear peanuts compared with buying into the premier league with its prices wholly inflated by TV money and the filter-down effect of mega transfers within premier European clubs.

As to whether Sorloth meets his value, at today's prices circa 10 goals and 10 assists a season will probably do it [or something?].

Whilst the three additions will hopefully start to improve the back up strength in the squad, we did not fully address the two key areas of a striker and a goalkeeper. In addition we have 7 players out of contract in the summer, of which at least 3 due to age/ability should not be retained, and Ward has stated he will not be signing a new contract. There are also 2 loan players that will return to their clubs. Consequently in summer we will need to bring in quite a large number of players, and in some positions ie goalkeeper and right back we need more than one signing in both positions.
With this dilution of the squad we have to start making signings early in summer to integrate them in to the squad. Overall on this basis I believe it was not a good window and is stacking up problems for further down the line

We know the price wanted of these players and we know we tried to do deals last minute. Are you confident this keeper will choose us over the rest of our league or will we end up signing someone else for the same price or possibly more? That's a fairly possible outcome.

I can help you there Willo,if we are relegated we will return to The Championship,however there is a distinct possibility that we will stay up for a 6th Season in The Premiership.
Either way the poster raises excellent points,which i’ve Seen Rudi post a few times about the “out of contract” players and the “loanees “.
Those decisions do need to be finalised ASAP.

Indeed, a continuation of our current form should see us 'Over the line' but we might not be able to sustain this.As you mentioned, a couple of our signings haven't played recently (Since Nov & Dec) and if we have further injuries, these players are called upon and found wanting, there will be an almighty outcry amongst our supporters about our transfer activity.

As I have mentioned, WBA,Brighton, Newcastle,Swansea have all signed players who will either play in the first team straight away or will be challenging for a place based on their previous experience.Don't think ours are in that category.

Apparently we did exactly the same thing to the same club and player in the August transfer window with exactly the same result so it appears that we don't learn from our mistakes
