Transfer Rumours transfer thread fact and fiction

If Dembele goes in this window without a solid replacement coming the other way, that is utter madness (especially considering our current injury problems)

 

The Star is the source, at least according to HITC

This is the same Daily Star who are nervously looking at their phones as they await a call from The Rock's lawyer for them inventing an interview with their client last week

 

I would have thought poch has someone lined up as a replacement only time will tell

 

Oh well that's that fecked then

 

I wonder if our own dh on here has had a word with poch and is on his way to villa park to negotiate with them over his favourite midfield target to replace dembele

 

I’ve already kidnapped Jack. On way to Hotspur Way now to force him to sign the contract. Owners chased me out with machetes and everything, the **** I do for my club, eh?

 

The irony being that Grealish would be of absolutely no help to us right now, as he's been out since mid-December with a shinbone injury and doesn't have a return date

Berge and Grillitsch, to name but two, could start against Fulham if needed

 

All these injuries at the same time ffs it's all very spursy

 

Just think this time last year I was willing to drive sissoko to the airport for nothing and now he's turned out to be one of our most consistent and most improved players just goes to show I know feck all about football

 

BREAKING NEWS: Jack Grealish to miss remainder of the season due to shinbone injury being further aggravated by some bloke kidnapping him

 

Don’t be too harsh on yourself, mate, no one could’ve predicted his turnaround in fortunes lol. In fairness to him he did improve last season but there was still little evidence to suggest he’d go from half decent squad player to pivotal centre midfielder.

 

Yaya Toure on MNF last night suggesting he would like another season in the prem - I know he doesn't fit our normal profile for a signing but he could certainly fill the gap we have currently on a short term basis

 

Another plea from years ago for that Jack chappie to come into town......
Unfortunately they misspelt "grosser". (Sorry, DH! Just a joke!)

 

I question his hunger apart from that...id have him

 

Last time I saw him, he looked like he'd had his cake and eaten it. I still think that 25% could be a good midfielder. He's quick enough, carries the ball well, can tackle and has good distribution...or it'll have to be...

 

Not for cake, I presume?

 

As it is for man, so it is for football club ...

 

I did say he could fill a gap!

 

As much as I want us to sign players in central midfield, for me it’s a No.

We need a energetic box to box midfielder who can pass and tackle. Toure can certainly pass but the energy he has isn’t enough to play in a Poch midfield.
