Somebody on Twitter reporting that we're in for Lee Tomlin. Most likely, it's absolute waffle. If it is to be true though, I'd be more worried about who's leaving because otherwise we'd have an absolute boat load of centre midfielders! 

Urrrrghhhh no thank you !

That'll be hanley then

Dunk would be great but he'll be off to the prem surely?

I the he said about us clearly being after a CB as he has already said about Hanley and he didnt dismiss Dunk like he normally does, would think Dunk will move to the prem as well but surely if a CB is to come in they will be to be 1st choice

When asked if we are in for Lewis Dunk, Nixon said that its looks like we are after a centre back

We do need to think about a natural replacement for shackell with his age, not necessarily this transfer window but surely the next. Depends who's available and at what price, plus what funds we have as a quality centre back wouldn't be cheap

Shackell is 32 - he is hardly past it, and still is our most competent defender at the club. Don't be too concerned regarding age of a defender; positional quality and speed of thought count for me. Might like to look at the ages of Huth, Morgan and Wasilewski at Leicester. Old age didn't seem to affect them too much last season.

So is this the little story that didn't make the cut? Would be pleased with Dunk, though Brighton won't sell to anyone. Just trying to think of possibilities from PL/Championship - Liam Moore, Marcin Wasileski, Tommie Hoban, Shane Duffy, Christophe Berra, Jake Cooper - can't think of many other realistic signings that'd add much to the squad/team.
