Transfer Rumours January '22 Transfer Thread

We can do that by just sending Smith back

 

He did have a look in and he was below average.

 

Cool story. Not heard that before

 

Who does he play for?

 

We could, but then that would leave us with cover issues in the midfield if injuries start to bite again. Slater is known at the club, he's got potential and he knows the team, he can effectively slot straight into the starting line up if needs be. He's a younger version of Smallwood, not Huddlestone, so he potentially can play that anchoring role long term.

The issues are up front and at the back, plus I really think we'd benefit from having a proper LWB in the team instead of playing KLP there. Thought Williams did well when given the chance, so he should be alright until Coyle is fit again.

If Pesic comes in, that's the forward options bolstered at least.

 

Disagree.

Team Manager is one of the most important roles at any football club and can only be judged on ability and results otherwise why have one?. If Acun rates McCann he puts his arms round him keeps him onboard and if not...he walks the plank with a big fat cheque.

 

If slaters playing the anchor role long term we aren’t going upwards are we.

 

That was said of a certain Ian Ashbee more than once. He's young, will develop and adds depth for the time being. He proved he can offer what Smallwood does in the run in last year.

 

So for the time being not long term then
Thanks know all

 

Would think whether it's long term would depend on how he does. Like any signing.

 

He’s known at the club but we are allegedly shopping in a different pond now. So if Terry and cliff go, and we start moving players out whilst bringing new players in. All of a sudden he’s not that much different to anyone else.
If the allams were still here then I’d think maybe but we should be looking for better

 

I don't understand the Slater hate. He's was magnificent during the run in after a very slow start to the season l. He's 22, and offers the tenacity and desire of Smallwood with extra mobility and legs. He's also very good on the ball too.

He's only going to get better too, so for a nominal fee you bring him in. There's little downside as we already know he fits in and that he improves us.

Not every signing needs to be a massive name or for a big fee

 

Magnificent ffs

 

I actually rate Slater, think he can develop into a great DM. Reminds me of Doc but a bit more technical and less robotic.

 

I think getting this Allahyar would be a game changer! Loads of pace and great finisher. Iranian international with massive potential.

 

Patently not that well thought of at Sheffield United if at 22 he has real potential. They've let his contract all but expire ... maybe they dont need the money...?

 

Maybe they're managing a Premier league wage bill in the Championship?!

 

Thing is it was posted on the 11th and now the guy posted an hourglass everyone thinks it’s done.. don’t quite understand that one.

 

We desperately need a Dept. Of ****housery. We should get Ian Ashbee to run it!
