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.

Midlands what is the latest on this lad ?
Has he signed a pre-contract.?

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.

Let's just look at transfera into teams around us...Bournemouth bought no one.
BHA broke their transfer record for Locadia, and we know what fans on here think of Dutch players, and Ulloa who can't get in the Leicester team and hasn't played much this season
Swansea have brought back Ahew, who seems to be injured.
Newcastle have got slamani, who can't get a game for Leicester, has yet to prove himself and seems to be injured.
WBA have got Sturridge who is a huge injury risk and has hardly played this season.
And Burnley have got Aaron lennon...
All in all, I'd rather have our new Danish player than most of those to be honest...

I think it was as simple as he was our second choice and when it became apparent that Guaita wasn't going to get over the line in this window we turned our attention to Ronnow but too late. To be honest buying both wouldn't be a bad shout but it may be that they thought Amadou was going to go through and money was an issue, so they were juggling balls and unfortunately dropped them!

Based on what?
I agree it seems massively overpriced for an unproven player who has only very briefly done something in a lowly rated league. However: sellers know the PL is where the money is, so they ask for excessive fees. For instance Feyenoord wanted 22m for Jorgensen, that is almost 40 percent of last season's Turnaround!! Unbelievable figures but English clubs are getting pressurized in overpaying huge fees, simply because they have the spending power and everybody knows it.
