Transfer Rumours January Transfers Thread

We need players in. End of. We then worry about upgrades.

 

A man can dream!!!!

 

It is odd that there are definite links to Shelvey and Ritchie.

 

Slimani and Ings, I mean seriously?

Rather get Shefki Kuqi and Leon Best back in than those two! I'd go one step further and KEEP JOSELU!

Ings 3 goals in 14 appearances in THREE YEARS! Positive - he does a lot of charity work?!
Slimani 35 EPL games 8 goals.

More Rafa dross on the way and then he'll moan he didn't have any money

 

Slimani would be good, don’t knock that one.

 

Well he won't have if we have to loan two strikers!

 

Wonder if all those wages that were nicely shaved off towards the end of last window are going on these two?

 

Always good in a relegation battle - French defenders!

 

He's just in poor form. He'll come good again. His work rate usually makes up for his moderate ability.

 

Yes, his minutes per goal last season was actually pretty decent IIRC. Certainly better than we have.

 

Don't rate Slimani - good goal scoring record in Portugal for one of the three decent teams in the league.

I know people think I'd bend Mitro over a barrel for a month of Sundays but he's got similar EPL goals in similar amount of games than those two combined in just over a season of not being played much. Mitro - 40 games 11 goals over 1.5 seasons OR Ings AND Slimani - 38 games 11 goals over 3 seasons.

If we are replacing anyone we need to bring in BETTER players than what we are pushing out the door.

BUT if we are seriously looking at Kenedy (as a striker/inside forward NOT LWB/LB) off Chelsea and Mitro out I'd take that. Kenedy - for me - would be one of the most exciting signings we have made in donkeys years but saying that I was over the moon when we signed Owen...

 

Don't you dare knock Rafa in the transfer market you fecking heathen. He has done a stellar job with that 102m don't you know...Merino, Ritchie...er...Merino, Ritchie...

 

I think we should sign Watson, Javiani, Moore, and that guy from the French club, eh, Baptiste?

 

TBF Gayle did the primary job he was hired for in scoring the goals needed to get us back up to the prem

 

This all day long.

 

Report claims we're after Deeney?

 

Ok. And I will say Clark was ok for 5m. And Atsu is ok for 6.5m. So we will say 5 out of about 18-20. Cracking strike rate.

 

I was going to ask people's thoughts on this the other day as us sounding like he is off. I'd take him. Knows where the back of the net is. Good leader on the pitch and a handful.

 

In our predicament, this would be a pretty good signing. Few years in him, good character, considerable upgrade on mitro/hoss.

 

Apparently Ashley has knocked back the proposal from Mandy for PCP to fund some of the January budget with a reimbursement due once the takeover is complete. What a fat prick!
