According to Beeb we are interested in only one of the players: Celtics striker Gary Hooper http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/20521275 few on the list I would like to come here ...plus a few I'm surprised they rate in the top 50
There are a lot on that list that will be way out of most teams budgets mate. For us though I think Hooper is a possible as is Austin but, if Austin does come we will be shedding 1 maybe 2 of our current CFs big gamble if he doesn't make the step up. Watched Hooper a few times now when we were linked in August and does look a very good player who would improve us immensely.
Agree with Talc, have seen Hooper a few times now and he's massively impressed me. Could be a top signing for many clubs.
Agreed mate, we need someone who can come in and make an impact, we need to kick on and maintain momentum. We can buy players with prospect in the summer, but not now. January has to be about bringing in players who will improve the team immediately.
This is the key point welder. We certainly do not want any more squad players we need additonal recruits that will go straight into the team and make an impact. Hooper (£8m), Ince (£10m) and Rose (£7m) would be a dream 3 buys and make us a far better outfit. £25m Sell/Loan out - Campbell, Titus and Ji.
Wonder if Hooper could make the same impact as Evertons ex rangers striker (name??). Shrewd buy by Moyes. I really really hope we sign Rose the lads a class act.
My mate mentioned we were looking into Hooper the other day when I met up with him after my mates funeral. This lad gets some good inside info as he drinks with a director. The twat doesn't let us know when the info is spot on mind, so I can get a few quid on.
