January Transfer Thread 2017

[bullybeef]

..big money signings are not always the way. Even if we have got mega bucks it's important we get the right type of players in. Going forward, I reckon it will be a mix with a few major signings where that player would make a major difference.

Fair point Eggy

 

[davek]

Do you mean Hot Tub Time Machine?!

Yeah, that's the one.

1993 - we're headed back there.

 

[PeregrineT]

He dos;t need to. We have Besic back soon and McCarthy there and Barry to partner Gueye.

There is no rationalising a numb nuts decision.

So, in one breathless rant you go on about our need to upgrade players, and in the next, you say we dont need players because we have Besic and Barry....hahahahahaha

You truly are mental mate, must be a kick dwelling in there. As always, thanks for the entertainment.

 

[ToffeeTim]

If RK rates Besic, then he should SELL Mccarthy to the highest panic buying bidder.

If he doesn't rate Besic, then he should flog him asap.

I suspect the latter is more likely.

Ok, for the hard of learning: we need an upgrade at one position...but not at one we have strength in depth in.

Only two of those ^^^ words were more than one syllable, so maybe that sinks in this time.

 

[Mr. Slave]

It all feels a bit flat now.

 

[ijjysmith]

Yeah, that's the one.

2 years until a cup win. You're saying Koeman is the man to break the trophy drought. Knew you'd come round.

Well in mate.

Barry has been a liability vs teams with any pace this season, and Besic and Mccarthy cant be relied on to stay fit. Not to mention Schneiderlin is an upgrade on them, it was obvious centre mid was one of the key areas to buy this window.

...in the words of Mary Poppins, "just think of your favourite things and then you won't feel so bad". At the moment I just think of Southampton and it works.

Not a bit of it.

Anyway the mistake is made now. Let's hope it isn't compounded by failing to add to the firepower up front.

 

[DanB90]

We're minted now lads. We sign however many centre mids we want.
Unless they don't wanna sign for us, then we sign someone else.

Ton ton ton!!!

McCarthy is a gonna mate. And we all know it.

Schneiderlin was bought in to replace him in my books as he's a far superior footballer.

It is only a mistake in your eyes, not a fact.

Please pipe down about it until we actually know how it pans out.

Also, discuss it in the Morgan thread ffs.

Only a mad man could be so upset about us signing the best DM of 2014 that it takes over his life.

 

[Stutheblue]

Thought we might have done some more business during this week (1st teamers). Still time left though.

 

[Arteta10]

Just seen that Boro are going in for Jese Rodríguez on loan. Worth a punt for us?

Not seen him play for PSG at all admittedly but thought he looked a decent player whenever i saw him play for Madrid

Can play all across the front line which always helps
