January Transfer Window Rumours

I'm convinced them trainers are purely bought to show people how much they can spend on trainers. Not sure why else people would spend so much on them as they are horrible chunky things that look like some sort of medical aid from the 90's.

 

Exactly my view

 

If we were to sign him I'd be very happy. But I'm also fine not signing him. Would much rather there was a resolution though so people can stop thinking about it.

It's ironic - on paper we have possibly (so far) had our best window in my lifetime. We have brought in a highly rated full back, a commanding centre back who is championship level, and two former wonder kids who could still be premier league players one day. Yet people might leave the window with a sour taste because we don't sign a 39 year old striker.

Now I know it's THAT 39 year old striker. But when you put it that way, its a shame if this cause negative energy. We should be extremely pleased with what the club has done SO FAR. Another centre mid and any decent striker cover and I'm happy as Larry.

 

Same from me as well. I dont think he is what we need, and with each week that passes, less so.

 

Decent point this. Not many games left. And we could really do with somebody who is training and fit and perhaps scoring for fun at U23 level and needs first team football, and can come straight onto the bench rather than need a few weeks to get fit. Rather than somebody who is at a bakery buying bagels.

 

I even think we’d need to offload a centre mid before we’ve got one. We currently have four decent ones albeit one injured and one often injured but there’s a danger we have too many. We absolutely need a second striker who can play week in week out and score if Stewart is out. That just isn’t Defoe whatever he does bring.

 

If you rearrange the first letters from the blackboard menu of hot drinks they read CALL MATE.
Obviously a cryptic message to LJ...its happening.

 

I think we are desperate for a DM. Only Evans fills that role and he seems injury prone.

 

Bored of it now Jermaine. Sign, don't sign. Couldn't care less

 

As a player NO. a player coach YES

 

The Jury is so "Out" on this they havent even been sworn in yet. On paper or not. No offence.

 

Best window I can remember was BSA signing the 3 K's.

 

I mean that's exactly why I said "on paper"

 

Best window for me, although not necessarily for the players was the Keane Championship window where we seemed to sign about 6 on deadline day and they kept popping up on SSN.

 

What I'd give for a Kirchhoff in CDM these days.....

 

And the "original" Kone and Khazri was pretty good too.

 

The best window we had was 2000-01 when we signed Arca, Varga, Don Hutchinson and Emerson Thome

 

Over the moon if Defoe comes but trust us to have a plan b ready if not, strange going into the last few days of a window with full faith in the board

 

And M'Vila

 

He didn't, the bakery did.
