January 2018 transfer window thread.

I see some fella from London has whacked £5000 on us signing Walcott

It was just sitting in my pocket mate so I thought what the hell and threw caution to the wind.

If we bring in a LB of the future in this window, what does that leave us needing in the summer?

Top class CB, top class creative mid, and another striker and/or winger? Doesnt seem like too much.

That Kenwright hey...show off.

Bet you a lot of money that if every single song you had ever heard was in Japanese you find becoming fluent in it pretty easy.

Exhibit A. Every bloke in the UK, of a certain age, knows exactly what Voulez vous couchez avec moi, ce soir? means.

Isn't it part of a song?

 

[roydo]

Isn't it part of a song?

Well yeah. Thats my point.

We should be completing the squad for next season this window. Good start with Tosun. Another couple required, minimal changes in summer, and will be excited for next season.

We will need to save money for a striker in the summer.

 

[Stephenlloyd]

I have a really crappy feeling Tosun will be our only signing this window

the only positive If he is, is maybe it means sam’s gone in the summer. And the new manager will get the money

 

[Gladystweet]

I think our number one target should be Usmanov. Then we can all lose our minds again...

 

[Eggsyblueskin]

Language barrier

How many brits full stop speak another language compared to our European cousins ?

Plus not may English players are actually good enough considering the price quoted by English clubs

Your last point is the salient one I feel.

 

[Barnfred 55]

142 million for Coutihno. Huge fee. Hopefully they blow it

Blown £75m of it already

 

[MartSlinger]

A replacement for Baines now that Tosun is complete should be next. Having a competent LB completely changes how we play, needs to get done.

 

[Neiler]

was just watching his youtube vid earlier on, he is our main hope imo. The kid seems to have that aura about him that'll make him genuine quality, i've never seen a player play for everton who nutmegs defenders like he does. Just our luck he got that horrific injury, i hope it's not a massive hinderance. I'd love to see us blow teams away next season with sheet pace from him, bolasie, lookman and vlasic.

That boy is our last hope,

No,

There is another.

Not to mention "A wop bop a loo lop a lop bam boo."

We dont need a LB of the future, we need a LB for NOW. Baines is done.

Well, thats what I mean. I mean a LB who not only comes into the side and is our best player, but a LONG term replacement. In other words, getting a 30 year old stop gap for this year is not the solution at LB.

Baines will be 34 next year.
