January Transfer Thread 2017

[Zatara]

Hallo mein Friends, its that time of the week that I just know you are have all been waiting for, just to remind you of the hot list from last week :

GK Stéphane Ruffier
RB Ricardo Domingos Barbosa Pereira
LB Fernando Marçal Oliveira
CB Virgil van Dijk
CB Willi Orban
DM Diego Demme
CM Fábio Henrique Tavares
CM Giacomo "Jack" Bonaventura
RW Mohamed Salah Ghaly
CF Andrea Belotti
LW Karl Toko Ekambi

And I will now present to you "HotList2, sponsored by Aero"

Stéphane Ruffier Saint-Etienne, 30, GK
Retaining his place in goal is still the boy Steph, head and shoulders above everybody else.
Ricardo Pereira Nice, 23, D(LR),M(R)
At RB we still have RiccyP.
Fernando Marçal Guingamp, 27, D(L)
At LB its again our Fernando, he wasnt the best, Alex Sandro and the boy Luis are better "options", but not considered for obvs reasons
Loic Perrin Saint-Etienne, 31, D(C)
Our first change this week, sees Loic come in for Willi, Loic was overlooked last week due to him being the wrong side of 30, but his continued good form has given him a chance, its on him to maintain his excellent form.
Virgil van Dijk Southampton, 25, D(C)
Van Dirge
Johannes Geis Schalke 04, 23, DMC
Another change with Johnny picked ahead of the boy Diego, well done J.
Fabinho Monaco, 23, D(R),DMC
Faby has again maintained his wonderful form and is without doubt the hottest CM in Europe currently
Giacomo Bonaventura AC Milan, 27, AM(CLR)
Jack also retains his place, interesting fact, he shares an agent with a certain Mr Lukaku and Mr Pogba, his place is far from secure tho, he has 3-4 players pushing him hard for a spot and hes gonna have to play well to retain his spot.
Ryad Boudebouz Montpellier, 26, M(CR),FW
A new feature this week is the inclusion of 2 extra players, 1 at ACM and 1 at Striker, just to add "options", Ryad isnt the best, Ozil is, but I see no reason to list Ozil.
Felipe Anderson Lazio, 23, M(CLR)
Felipe pushes Salah to the bench here, well done Felipe, take your chance Friend.
Adem Ljajic Torino, 25, AM(CLR),FW
Another change sees Adem replacing Toko on the left, he was 4th in line, Coutinho, Insigne and Neymar were excluded, Insigne could maybe be got, but screw him, we want hungry players.
Andrea Belotti Torino, 22, FW
3rd choice behind Sanchez and Dzeko, is yet again our boy Andrea, keep it going champ.
Alexandre Lacazette Lyon, 25, M(LR),FW
And the new 2nd option up top spot has gone to the dwarf from France.

Which would mean the hot list would look something like this, personal preference :

Ruffier
Pereira - Van Dijk -Perrin - Oliveira
Geis - Fabinho
Anderson - Boubebouz - Ljajic
Belotti
​

Thanks for reading Friends, tune in next week around this time for the next thrilling hot list.

Sadly I am not Steve Walsh.

But, Walsh will scout players, the initial phase, by looking at stats, then clearly we will send scouts, so hopefully hes on the same page as me with regards some of them, who look decent players with potential.

I have full confidence Walsh will do this and bring in more players of Gana's quality. However we both know he will be 'overruled' by Koeman in many instances when it comes to the u27s who arent built like brick poophouses.

Koeman said as much in his press conference...big players blah blah blah...

Well Walsh works for Koeman, he will have told Walsh what to scout and what kind of player to buy.

Big powerful players who dont get mugged off, whats the issue there? Surely we all want stronger players who dont take no crap?

Like Sissoko mate?

Anyway, I'd put up a few players of my own but am not sold on a LB at the moment...

Yes players like Sissoko, hes the type of player we have been crying out for for years. Clearly hes not the type of human.

Its a good job Ronnys eye for a player managed to pick us up Gana.

But ok, this is what happens when you allow a PE teacher to buy players.

Haha that was all Walsh...you can tell by the interviews that the rest were his though.

Top top top top players brought in by Ronald. Can only pray he chooses the ones in Jan and not Walsh...

But thats poppycock, how can Ronny scout players when hes playing golf all the time?

if Walsh "picked" Gana he must have picked the rest, otherwise whats the point in him?

We've been through this Zat, Koeman has had a long-standing interest in our lad Idrissa.

So has Walsh - so pretty natural that he was the first signing made when it all came together.

I wonder who Zat will credit for bringing Toby, Virgil, Dusan, Sadio et all to this league...

 

[Goat]

It depends if he considers them good signings.

The thing for me, Stickleback was bought as a back up Keeper, hes been picked ahead of Robles and in fairness hes been found wanting, hes not as bad as that clown the vermin paid real money for and hes not totally bad, just prone to the odd mistake.

Williams has been pretty solid, he had a bit of bad game the other day and people have deemed him old and finished. lollollol

Bolasie wasnt amaze and people for 1 reason or another are focusing on his fee, hes now gonna spend the next 12months or so unable to justify his fee.

Then theres Gana, who has been a total success, so of course he must have been a Walsh signing and the others Koemans.

I suppose people are waiting to see who signed Valencia, will no doubt depend on whether hes a success.

Quite amazing logic.

 

[Goat]

I shouldnt mention Valencia infront of Zat, it triggers him so hard.
