Transfer Rumours January '22 Transfer Thread

People as successful as acun don't get to where they are by being afraid to make difficult choices. If it goes wrong then he'll have no issues changing things

 

Their current manager has previously been sacked something like 2 times and is back for his third spell.

 

You have a point there. But I believe he will do so.
For acun; winning something is greater than anything else in his life

 

He is also multilingual so that will help with some of the new signings.

 

Exactly, fans have short memories. It must have hurt Grant McCann deeply when some of our fans were chanting 'Your getting sacked in the morning' at Luton away this season. He couldn't help but hear it and had to walk within yards of those chanting for him to be sacked to the players tunnel.

 

Said it a few times in here the level of hatred towards him was completely ridiculous
Makes you think some must have problems in their personal life and just taking it out on him.

 

Trust the process

 

I remember having stand up rows with our own fans in E6 who were screaming abuse at Steve Bruce when he was our manager. .

 

I'm sure the abuse will start from the usual suspects at the new owners and the new coaching set up as soon as something doesn't go exactly they way they want or think it should

 

You would think city fans would be more level headed and humble looking at our history
Makes you wonder how much of a fan they really are doesn’t it?
Even now things are getting ridiculous on here. God knows what’s happening on that Twitter ****e.

 

Cheers for the info.
Its pleasing to know he has no success to validate this move and was second choice to Emre Belozuglu.
As we say in England, it sounds like a case of "it's not what you know, but who you know"
Keep posting mate.

 

When Zayatte left and lichaj too, both went to Turkish clubs. I Immediately joined the forums of their new clubs to offer advice

I’m like that

 

If we'd gone for Emre people would be complaining he lacks experience, was only caretaker at Fenerbache for his W7 D2 L1, etc. So he'd be on a hiding to nothing too.

 

Steve Bruce was a bellend and well deserved it though.

 

Let it go. The Allams were ****s.

 

Totally agree with this, it’s a ****ing game if football not life or death, sad bastards if they think it’s more……

 

Now it’s all over in hindsight the previous regime actually have pulled a rabbit out the hat in terms of building a half decent squad of players for absolutely nowt with absolutely minimal commitment in terms of wages etc going forward.

No chance of us being stuck with any deadwood loading the wage bill.

 

Always felt this has been largely overlooked but the whole recruitment team have done a great job. Even those who haven't quite made the grade will have no problem getting moves elsewhere

 

Not sure what I'm letting go.... But ok

 

Firstly, most of the faithful wanted change, we have now have it, let's embrace it!

Whether you think the sacking of Grant is fair or not, what we have to realise is that Grant and others were brought in because they suited the Allam's way. Which was little investment and shop in the bargain basement. And for the most part, they did an okay job under those conditions.

However, now we have a different approach, an owner who has ambition. The 2 players being mentioned already, who look likely to be coming in, apart from Regan Slater, who at the price was a no brainer to buy, are 2 strikers, Acun has clearly seen where the most pressing area is to strengthen in the forward areas.

There is going to be change, let's savor it and enjoy the ride.
