Tom Barclay says we're not interested in picking up the newly un-busy Raheem Sterling
...do I hear beers being opened?

You're right but I think loan signings are the most sensible solution where the problem is injuries and a manager who might be gone by the summer.
And loan signings tend not to happen until the very end of the window when clubs know clearly where they stand.
So when Mbappe joins us on loan tomorrow night, remember: you heard it here first.
This is one of those rare moments when the entire fan base is in agreement.
I’d take him if it was a short term deal and meant the club could loan out Tel and/or cut RKM loan deal.
Absolutely nothing happening. Not even a sniff of a rumour.
It's safe to say that this window has done nothing to change the path we are firmly set on, which is a bottom half finish and exiting the CL in the next few rounds. Season will be over by the time the walking wounded return.
And this sets us up perfectly for a summer in which the few decent players we have will probably push to leave, which will leave us with too much work to do in the summer, which will leave us at a disadvantage next season, which will wash, rinse and repeat ad nauseum until the owners sell up and piss off.

we need a revolution
We need to take to the streets again
As usual the club forces us to shift our love and loyalty for it onto the next transfer window
I think it is slowly brewing.
Thousands of empty seats at every game now, even those you'd expect to sell out.
Last season was spared by the Europa win.
That won't happen this season. I think we'll pick up a couple of wins in the spring which will hopefully be enough to keep us up, and then the season will be completely over with six games still to play.
I think that's when the real protests will start as there will be literally no reason left to cheer the players apart from an ego-trip they've done nothing to deserve.
Spurs love to kick the can down the road.
This.
Fixing the mess was always going to be a challenge, and wouldn’t be an overnight process. But we’re not even using each transfer window to make small but effective positive changes, where we gradually make inroads to rid the problems.
Johnson sold.. ok. Sensible. Fair enough, we got decent money. But where’s the replacement?
Connor Gallagher… ok, decent enough squad player.
Souza - could easily be the LB version of Alejo Veliz for all we know.
There’s days left and there’s been no IMPROVEMENT to the squad, and basically no money spent, yet we witnessed a CL game on Weds where the first XI was literally the players we had fit, plus a bench of kids.
It’s negligence.
We are only allowed to make 3 additions to the CL squad and we already have six players who are not in it. Gallagher, Tel, Dragusin, Kulesevski, Souza and Bissouma. I imagine we will add Gallagher and probably Kulesevski if he looks like being fit by March. So the window doesn't make much difference to this particular issue.
It isn't just about this season and the coming months.
It's about the coming years or even decade. We need to stop looking around just the next corner and start looking at the horizon. Signing young talent is one step in that direction but we've all seen how they need balance and support.
Generally agree but the chance of signing someone who is really worth £70m is low in the Jan window. I've not seen anyone move yet who would obviously strengthen us.
The premier league squad needs additions. Plus long term fixing like others have said.
It's not a bad deal for Fulham, but it can't really have a great conclusion.
City are supposed to have a sell-on clause, buy-back match and various other ****.
If he flops, then he's Fulham's player. If he succeeds, then he'll go back or City will make money.
It’s what Real Madrid do and I can see why City are copying. They’re in a no lose position.
