    The "twits" are hinting that we're trying a loan move for a Real Madrid striker. - wouldnt mention a name though.

    Sounds to me like its game over on LD.

    I think it's gonna be another disappointing window chaps. - one where we could actually end up weaker now that Sandro is injured.

    We were in at one time for Remy so what went wrong there?

    Think Remy was one that Harry fancied and so when AVB took over obviously didn't see him as a player that'd fit into his system. Remy's a good player but I doubt he'll be a 20 goal a season man, would have liked him though as he's got the ability to play on the wing too. Plus, this season I think he's been in bad form, sure I read something about him scoring 1 goal in 14 games so I suppose his value may have decreased and since Newcastle and QPR became interested, Marseille were willing to sell.

    Haha, we should be so lucky mate. Callejon ain't bad though, don't know why the twits aren't saying his name as if it's a major secret though, Jasper over on SC said it yesterday morning that a loan move was being touted. They probably get their info from him!!!

    I honestly don't know enough about him. Will he make much of a difference? or is it a case of us being all talk again, and ending up with a loan...

    To be honest mate I don't know too much about him, weirdly I follow The Prem, Erevidisie and Ligue 1 more so than La Liga (not sure why). I do know though that Callejon was majorly impressive when he was at Espanyol after Madrid sold him, which is why Madrid then used their buy back clause to bring him back. He plays as winger or striker too so versatility is always a bonus. I've only really seen YouTube clips of him though so can't really judge him too much but lets be fair, THOUGH, the last Real Madrid squad player that joined us done brilliantly :D

    I hope he's better than Kenwyne Jones. - That's the latest rumour. Will we ever learn?!

    A lot of talk saying Holtby is very likely to join in January now that Sandro looks to be out long term.

    Sooner the better, obviously, but he isn't a replacement for Sandro? Not sure what the link between Sandro's injury and bringing forward his transfer is.

    Perhaps AVB was looking to push Dembele up behind the striker but now Sandro is injured he needs to keep Dembele deeper so he wants to get in a proper no.10? It doesn't make a whole lot of sense as a like for like but I won't be complaining too much if he comes in early.

    Yeah not sure to be honest SD, I suppose it's just a case of losing Sandro and wanting to bring another midfielder in to make the numbers up, even if they're not like for like.

    I posted something on this subject early this morning. There's a link to an article in The Guardian basically saying that the enquiry has already been made..

    Yeah it's gathering a bit of interest now, Sky & other websites are reporting it and even the amazing "ITK's" are discussing itnow. Looks like a goer.

    that's a very good shout, Huddle <ok>

    it also potentially solves that issue of the man playing in the "middle of the 3", which hasn't quite clicked for anyone yet.
