January Transfer Thread 2017

Care to check our improvement in results since the useless bar steward was removed from the side mate?

Or it could have something to do with Joel.

 

[MikeH72]

Hands down the worst deadline day ever, worse than that one where Beckham to PSG was the big story.

 

[BlueToff]

Explain Bolasie.

The boy Yannick is good.

He forgets it sometimes, but he has all the talent and attitude. He's just a bit thick.

And now he's crocked, which is unfortunate.

 

[Azza]

It's so on!

He'll become free to sign for anyone on his birthday. Even if he agrees to join us it can't be until his birthday. His club will get a token development fee, prob around 250k if we get him.

Ahh ok makes sense... doesn't seem like he would be a first time player right away though, as much as I love bringing in youth players I'm not sure they are ready for first team play and that is what we need

 

[Logans run]

So how does this work. I know he can't sign until he is 18 which is next month, but the transfer window closes today. Is it something with the age of the player?

yes

Just got off another plane. Anything happening now?

Well, we've arguably improved form since. So it's a conundrum.

I really liked what we saw of Bolasie by the way.

Because we didn't keep giving an outball to a braindead player who just smashed balls into the box (or miles past it) for a laugh.

Obviously he's going to be the leading assist maker if he's the only one tasked with getting the ball into the box. That doesn't mean he was actually good at it, and our form showed that - since he's gone, we're actually playing with a bit of craft and invention.

Useless player, complete waste of money.

Considering Moshiri is the man apparently the man that's meant to be the man that's taking us back to the big time his first two transfer windows have been underwhelming.

 

[Jags..class]

Nope we might get rid of kone

 

[BlueToff]

Jay Rodriguez to WBA. I think he could have done a job for us

SHAREDRodriguez staying put

West Brom wanted a striker and a defender.

They were interested in Jay Rodriguez and I think the player would be keen.

He needs to get away but Southampton are insistent he would stay put.

Is funny that we have actually looked better without Bolaise. Think the problem was when he played it was all about just getting the ball up to him, since his injury we've started playing footy a bit more, spreading the play.

Oh right.

Spot on.
