22:20 STOKE AGREE MARTINS INDI FEESky sources understand Bruno Martins Indi will undergo a medical at Stoke tomorrow after the club agreed a fee to sign the defender from Porto. The Dutchman spent last season on loan at Stoke. We understand the fee could rise to £13.4m. www.skysports.com/transfer-centre Wonder if the sky sources are this message board

So what's changed? Have Stoke caved?
If they have he's still great value and we know he fits with Shawcross.

£13m in todays transfer climate is an absolute steal for a player like Bruno. A loan for Zouma alongside this plus reinvesting the money from the Arnie sale towards Delph and another winger sounds very promising.

Zouma and BMI, what a partnership in the making.

I won't believe it until I see him in front of the Boothen end with a scarf above his head lying on the grass in Switzerland wearing a sports bra over his training shirt

Yep - certainly suggests the option we thought we had wasn't worth the paper it was (or wasn't) written on. But suddenly caving suggests we weren't prepared to go to £13m before the Arnie money came in and suddenly are. Hard to know what to think.

boring technical question but would we do the medical in Stoke or out with the squad? Guessing the former.

Bruno, Zouma and Delph in would soften the blow of Arnie going. Soften the blow? I'd prefer them 3 to Arnautovic. Yeah different positions but, Sobhi can replace him, our defence and midfield needed improving and we've done that if we sign them 3. I'd be happy this window if we signed them 3, ideally I'd prefer a full back or two and possibly a younger Whelan replacement but if Fletcher can do that for a year then happy days.

Arnie money? Or Arnie's comments stinging the club into action?

No - but Mail sports editor says "it's close, but not yet done"

GET IN!!! BMI, Shawcross and Zouma (fingers crossed). Looking forward to seeing more of Tymon in pre-season, because if we decide on playing three CBs and two fullbacks it could really help Tymon to not worry as much defensively, and focus more on the attacking side of the game, and hopefully replace Pieters sooner rather than later

Great news about Bruno. Hope we can get Zouma, and get Delph signed as well ASAP. IMO I think we do still need another winger especially when Arnie goes, together with a CDM - fingers crossed.
