January Transfer Rumours Thread

Is right mate, we as a rule buy promising players or nearly men and end up shipping them out on loan and paying 75% of their wages while they play for other clubs.

 

True but then, Sturridge, Coutinho and Sakho were bought on those terms too.

 

Another 12-15M hopeful. Seems to be the moderate gamble approach continues.

Supposed to be very quick isn't he?

 

Ain't that what people said about Aspas?

 

No, what we said then was "who?"

 

Yep dev but think of those left on the bench, reserve team and out on loan and your examples are exceptions to the rule.

Don't get me wrong we are where we are and I'm as thankful as the next red with our improvement with play and a young manager who knows where he's going and what he wants from his team.

 

Well I'll judge on BR's own words that it'll only be upgrades not squad fillers from now on. He's upped the bar himself with how quick an impact the transfers have to make to be considered a good purchase.

 

I'll go for that mate.

 

I thought it was less than that.

Anyway could be worse, we could have spunked our entire budget on a £27m donkey with a £23m release clause just to avoid looking like everyone turned us down

 

Putting in 50m for Barkley apparently cough ......still get turned down lol

 

I can kill two birds with one stone. I play RB and RM, will gladly accept 20k a week and can put a good ball in, beat a player if need be, and look for combination play.

I am 29 so you can get a few good years out of me yet.

 

Guaranteed to be better than GJ Bluff.

And think of the inroads into the Yank markets!!!

 

Yes, the others are Borini, Assaidi, Allen and Migs (?), latter two good?

 

and the Welsh

There's no way on gods green earth that Kenwright will let the kid or Baines go until the summer while they're looking good for a possible top four spot, and they got their fingers burnt when they let Rooney go to Old Turdford and add moyes's disrespect in his bid for his ex players in the summer and expect a big throatful of phlem to be spat at Utd in the Jan window from EFC.

 

I'm not sure if its that amount, can't see Everton turning down £50m. they could loan ten Lukaku's for that

 

So we're not signing Messi?

 

I thought the limit is 3 Lukaku's per squad

 

I can be your huckleberry.

 

Can't remember whetei saw it G, don't think it was twatter, will go look. It's bollox either way me thinks
