Transfer Rumours January '22 Transfer Thread

Play well, you should keep the shirt so same 11 with the new lads on the bench.

 

Think Ryan himself would have decided where he wanted to go or otherwise. Clearly wanted to stay at City.

 

I posted a message a while back from someone who had met his Dad outside the ground a few weeks ago, I think it was the Everton game. His father said he loved it up here, people were so friendly and the players were a great bunch of lads. I suspect you are right.

 

I think it depends on training this week.

From the Swansea game, the only one I think is at risk is Longman, thought he was pretty quiet.

Didn't think KLP had a good game either minus the goal. I know he's not great defensively but I do prefer him at wing back as he gets more space

So maybe either of those 2 but it's harsh.

If any of the new lads look red hot this week in training I'd start them.

 

You're right there.

 

Hard to say when we don't know if Honeyman's fit and we don't know much about Forss, Sayyadmanesh and Walsh. We've also got 2 games a week this month so a bit of rotation might be in order. On paper the Preston game might be one of the less challenging games coming up (he says hopefully...) so maybe Walsh gets a run out? Ideally I'd like the same side that beat Bournemouth but I don't think Williams is fit yet so who knows. TWT.
UTT

 

Afraid Williams is out for about 10 weeks. Tough for the lad as he was just beginning to make a strong impression and looked comfortable as a wing back I thought.

 

So you’d drop potter?
Right

 

he's only just 24, and the video mentions him being 23 when he joined swansea last summer, so potentially a decent length of time here. i did notice soon after we beat swansea that someone had mentioned him on the match thread being their best player.

 

If a change were to be made, I'd reckon Fleming would drop out (harsh), KLP to wingback and Sayyad up top with Eaves, I would expect the same 11 to start, with pretty early subs to get some of the new lads involved tho

 

Classic.

 

Same team for me. I thought Fleming was one of the best players on the pitch against Swansea and could really make that left wing-back position his own if he gets a good run of games and form.

 

He got hit twice within a minute. What an engine he has though. Plus he has sorted out the wrestling with the opposition players all the time.

Certainly back to his best atm.

 

10 weeks? That's pretty much his season over then, I feel for him and he's a definite loss to the squad.

 

I wonder how much Pennock influence on picking the team as Shota doesn't have a number 2 yet and as I understand Pennock is helping out and might like to see some of his youth protege coming through or having regular places in the team

 

I'm not so sure Fleming would be the one to miss out, he brought a balance to the side. Having a right footed left sided wing back, loses the option of the left footed accurate cross, as with the first goal.

 

I’ve always thought Fleming deserved a run of games last season when Elder was going through a poor spell. I’d like to see him be our first-choice left-back for the foreseeable. Elder’s alright but he’s a bit limited as a player. I wouldn’t be bothered if he went in the summer and I can imagine him ending up wherever McCann ends up.

 

I agree with you.

 

We got ourselves a scapegoat?
Nice one

 

I think you will find that it is spelt grammar. Happy to help old chap.
