Am I being overly optimistic in thinking that if Eto'o is going it's probably to make room for someone that fits in our system better (i.e. a winger)?

Makes sense to me given that we effectively have 3 strikers now Kone is fit again, counting Naismith as the third.
3 strikers and no-one of quality on the wing apart from Mirallas. If last night showed us anything it was the stupidity of playing with Naismith and Barkley.
 

Parejooooo

LOL would love this but he'd cost an absolute fortune which always makes me sad as he was once benchwarming for QPR in the Championship :/

That's the hope my friend. But it's the hope that kills us.
 
Quick question for those who are asking for Geri back:

Has he played an official match for Barcelona this season or did he sign for Sevilla during pre-season? I ask only because if he has we definitely can't sign him & also I think he's cup tied in the EL which blows.
 

I'd do anything to get Gerry back and a Shawcross style defender.

I wanted them 2 in the summer and that's all I want now although I'd love Marshall as well, I think the other 2 positions need addressing first.

Like the poster above said, Robles has let in at least a goal a game but there's nothing that can be done about that the way we defend. If it hadn't been for him last night he'd of let in 4 or 5 with out them having to do too much.

Let's sort out the defending first and replace the glaring weakness in the squad which has been caused by Atsu not being able to help McGeady or Mirallas.

Gerry and Shawcross or similar please!!
 
If we can get Deulofeu then I think we should not just for his ability but the lift it will give the fans and players. It's obvious we need reinforcements at the back and in goal too but at this stage I think team morale needs a boost as much as the playing squad,
 
@johnmerro1: It was mainly #EFC pushing out Eto'o themselves to other clubs. They're now interested in replacing him with a loan deal for Januzaj #MUFC
:coffee:

Only way that's true is if Martinez and Eto'o have had a massive falling-out. If other clubs have approached us with money bids, then maybe...

As for Januzaj: I'd prefer Deulofeu, but I haven't really seen enough of Januzaj to form an opinion on him.
 
All the shouts to get little wee GERRY back, yeah, I get it, he's talented, but was he REALLY that good for us? He was infuriating, I know that. In the same way MIRALLAS is i.e. when a final ball is needed and never given. Some say that's the mark of a talented maverick, whatever that means, I say it's the mark of a greedy tw@t...

As for STONES, yep, he's often a joy to watch and will without question become a great. But before we get carried away let's not forget he nearly cost us twice last night (not that it mattered in the end) by fannying about on the edge of the box, as CARRAGHER - a pox be upon his balls - said on the TWITTY; that's insanity with 3 players around you. He needs to grow up a tad I fear.

Or perhaps we generally just need to stop being reliant on the tikky-tw@tty-fanny-abouty stuff so much.

And ROSS, I mean, ace, again, a mega-talent, yet sometimes the kid appears to think he's just havin' a kick-about on the WALLY PARK ASTRO TURF, his head seems elsewhere. Genuinely feel we either need an older pro to step up or buy someone with a gob who's willing to take control and praise & bollock when required...

I'd sign him regardless, just to see that camp little wave of his when he's warming up on the touchline.

He's magic,

You knooooow!

No-one's saying Gerry was the finished product. He is outrageously good for his age though, and completely fearless when it came to taking on a man and skinning him. He also has goals in him - we NEED those qualities in the form of a winger or a 10. We are desperately short of options out wide because Pienaar is coming to the end of his career, Atsu's shown us nothing so far and McGeady.... well, anyone who thinks McGeady is starting XI quality for the prem should probably be sectioned. In covering for our deficiencies out wide, we continually stifle Eto'o and Barkley by lining them up as wingers, and we corrupt our shape in doing so.

I understand your comparison of Deulofeu with Mirallas and I don't completely disagree... but Mirallas was MotM last night.

Id say that Etoo has not been a cohesive influence in the dressing room, cant imagine him being moved on for any other reason.
Maybe hes turning a few heads and chatting about life as a GAlactico!
The pep talk by him on the pitch a few weeks ago could been seen either positively or negatively
