Is there any substance to this, or are people just betting on the fact Jolley managed in Sweden for a bit and might sign someone?

I'm as guilty as anyone for expecting some / any Swedish player(s) to sign in January, but I realised I haven't got the slightest idea why.

Has he actually said there's some he wants to bring over?

I was banking on him unveiling a lower league Ibrahimovic, but I think I'm going to have to seriously adjust my expectations here.

anyway, UTFM etc.

I seem to recall he said in an interview that he had some players in mind but we might have to wait till their season ended.

Hard tell tell if these are signed up already, likely to come, or whether it was just a reference to the fact he intended to reach out to some players before Jan to see if they would be interested,.

He said there season ends at Christmas time and teams don’t do Buisness throughout there season because it’s hard for them to bring players in due to transfer windows.

He has players in mind but can’t do Buisness to January as that’s when there season has ended and easier to do Buisness.


I say he certainly has players in mind from Sweden in January

AFC Eskilstuna only has one game left on the 10th but probably won’t get to know anything until January 01st 2019

AFC Eskilstuna are currently 3rd in the Superettan (Swedish second tier).

The top two teams in Superettan are promoted to Allsvenskan and the two lowest placed teams from Allsvenskan are relegated in their place. The third placed team in Superettan plays a promotion/relegation play-off against the third lowest team in Allsvenskan (cheers Wiki).

Can't see many fancying swapping this for a League 2 relegation battle. If we get any of their players it will be ones they don't want I expect!

The Swedish league will end this month. Eskilstuna are in a play-off (for promotion) against the 14th (3rd bottom) side in the Allsvenskan (premier div). The second game of the 2 legged play-off is on 25th Nov. So presumably, unless everyone in Sweden pisses off until the New Year discussions can take place ahead of our transfer window opening.
