January Transfer Thread 2017

[AlE]

Yes mate. I've been to the vaults, he's not African and in no way is English his second language.

Definition of multi has changed a bit...

 

[ProZ]

Massive net spend does not equate to putting the ball in a net at one end and keeping it out t'other. All it means is that you have a lot of man-childs who are highly paid, most unhappy that they are not in the first eleven that you then have to strip out as deadwood at a later date.

With the removal of all the people you wouldn't want in your team it shows at last we have a plan, we brought in 2 quality players, so ok, let's just see how it goes for the rest of the season.

We still have the same issues as last summer to contend with, a tarnished reputation (although it seems to be getting better) and no European football. As others have said many times over, if we get in a forward now he will just be a bench warmer, there isn't massive queue of top players out there looking to fulfil this role.

Of course I would love to get more in, but Koeman has earned the right to say if they are not the right quality then don't bother. If we can get a Europa place and bag a better class of GK, CB and F come summer I'm all for that.

Is that you Ronald.

Err do you really think we bid 60 mil for Napoli defender but they wouldn't sell

I thought the quote was saying we bid 50m and Napoli looked for 60m so it went no further.

True, but you're not likely to gain much traction with this; too many inundated with years of "net spend" mantra to think clearly and freely

 

[PeregrineT]

Mate with respect we bid for Shearer doesn't matter does it we could bid for Neymar doesn't mean we meet their asking price or player wants to come. Another pathetic attempt to appease fans

You said that after Bolaise we made no more bids, and that it was a fact. You lied.

 

[orly]

I think yes awaiting @orly 's excellent spotter skills to confirm.

Oh very much yes.

@Angel Delight

I got Silver 1 last weekend on FIFA mate. Was ecstatic.
Back on topic: I think there COULD be a shock incoming. Based on absolutely nothing.

Didn't you say earlier that English isn't your first language, you've even used an apostrophe correctly. Got to ask, why did you lie ?

 

[Foot Long Hot Dog]

Is this guy a multi?

Without doubt a returning banned poster imo, which one I have no idea, but I can understand why they got banned in the first place.

Tedious in the extreme.

 

[Tubey]

Imagine if Moyes went for Kone too though.

In one transfer window he'd have done more for Everton than he did in eleven years as manager.

I agree mate. I'm waiting to jump up and down with excitement as sky break the news.

Angel Delight was just a non-stop drone of negativity though and barely concealed wummery, nothing sensible or positive came out. don't remember McFly in detail though.

I don't think they are a WUM. I think it's a very dull moany blue who was banned before, but dunno who
