January 2018 transfer window thread.

[Abraders]

Agree there. Don't think we're in need of anything revolutionary. Two quality additions and Onyekuru and Dowell returning from their season long loan deals.

I doubt either will come back early.

Pretty sure if a club pays a fee for a loan they can't be recalled either.

 

[evertonarntwe]

Bertrand or shaw would be decent signings

 

[Abraders]

I'd rather someone like Tierney over PVA.

 

[jolteon101]

Which dross has he signed?

Im just curious if you have even looked back at his past transfers.

Crystal Palace

Sunderland

West Ham 2013-15

Some dross signed but what manager doesn't have a few dodgy signings?

Sorry, meant for next season

Sakho and Miliijevic are two of Palace’s best players. Likewise NDoye is probably the only failure from the Sunderland buys as the other three were integral under him when staying up. Even the West Ham signings don’t look bad when you consider us had to bring them up then keep them up.

 

[Howards tipple]

If its 2 in will be a goal scorer and a left back.

I think there is enough options at CB to wait until summer.

Dowell can come back if required and if Unsworth had been in charge I think he would have. But we should definitely leave him at Forest now!

Plus only 5 out of those 17 were over £10M. If he does take a risk on players they will be cheap enough not to lose money on.

The 2 i would target would be

Vardy and Bertrand.

With half of Leicester's back room staff now with us, i think Vardy could be a serious option.

Ryan Bertrand is an England international and the type of player we should be attracting.

The CB position looks not bad at the moment, Holgate and Williams have both upped their games and Keane will be back soon.

That Khazri was absolutely tragic for Sunderland.

You haven't factored in the brown paper bag values

a Man's got to keep himself in pints of Gravy, West Hammer Human

 

[Milkman]

Can see us signing Slimani. Bertrand, Tierney or that lad who's playing well in Germany would be just lovely as Cuco's back up.

Vardy is 30, Bertrand 28.

Both at peak valuation already playing in the PL.

It is a no from me.

Ryan Sessegnon and Petagna for me Clive.
