January 2018 transfer window thread.

[Tel001]

Alfie Mawson, ffs

Absolute cart horse. Learned nothing have we, throwing ridiculous amounts of money at overrated PL garbage

Spending massive fees on players from teams in the bottom of the table does seem to be a flawed transfer strategy doesn't it? Started with appointing bobby a relagated manager then signing kone etc and is still going on to this day

1.5 years 5/6 years

Same thing I guess.

Dog years mate

 

[Nymzee]

Dog years mate

He’d know all about that in Asia.

 

[bluestevon]

... yet

Sell excellent players, use the money to buy average players.... only ends one way.

Selling Mirallas another step in that direction.

Mirallas an excellent player mate? Not since Suarez raked his Achilles has he been anything but average.

Still need another centre half, left back, a box to box midfielder and another good striker in my opinion.

Doesn't matter where the players signed from, long as he's good enough and fits into the system and with the other players.

That's been the problem, it's almost like people are being signed by one person and then another has to figure out how then to utilise them.

Can't stand fat Sam, but him and Walsh will at least be on the same page in terms of bringing in players who will be with the system in mind, NOW if that's a good thing long term if we swap managers soon is another kettle of fish altogether.

Max
N’Zonzi
Sane
Walcott

This month? Not a hope in hell. remember Sell to buy.

Mate we've got Steve Walsh at the helm.

There will be no shortage of quality players shortlisted. I'd be so surprised if we didn't get in the player we need this window.

It’s only like asking my missus to get me some ale when she goes shopping mate.

You can ask but you know you aren’t getting any.

 

[sheedys left foot]

Mawson, another overpriced player from a club constantly battling relegation.

Have we learned nothing?

Sure didn’t he find Kante and vardy in an orphanage.

The man is a legend

We have been linked with Rahman the left full back from Chelsea. I wonder if there is any truth in these rumours. He suffered a cruciate injury at the AFCON and has been out for 11 months, but is now back to full fitness. Maybe a loan with an option to buy in the summer would suit all parties.

Not always. Marc Albrighton, Danny Simpson, Robert Huth from bottom half team as well as Jamie Vardy, Kasper Schmiechel, Wes Morgan and Leonardo Ulloa from lower divisions and a few from more obscure/low ranked European teams.

I take your point though. Lightning rarely strikes twice in the same spot

Vardy aside, Hideous players there
