When’s the last time we shelled out in January to positive results?

Lennon saved us from getting relegated

Jelavic

Should have kept Vlasic. He was punted too quickly

I suppose the January window will depend if the board feel Europe is realistic or if we get passed the RS, a cup run is worth a dart.
Loans probably

He wanted to leave because we insisted on starting Rooney and Sigurdsson every game. We messed that one up.

Well, I kind of see the Spanish league as a bit of a mixed ability group, based on what the teams outside the top 6 earn, there are teams in the championship with bigger budgets than la liga.

Genuinely the winner of the China mega wages league couldn’t beat Tenerife in the Spanish second division.

We did. Think he would have been a player by now ..
And his sister is smokin’

Tosun, one of those players whose style was supposed to suit the PL.

His graft stands out in Turkey but his attributes are dime a dozen here and he doesn’t have anything remarkable in terms of speed, control, strength.

Klaassen the same.

True he's more suited to slower leagues like Germany or Italy. He might be alright in a 442 he can finish issue is he hasn't the pace or physicality to get into positions to score the way we play doesn't suit him, surrounded by the pace at Palace he could score a few. Still its best for us he moves on.

He wasnt willing to stay and fight for a place.

Its nobodies fault, its just 1 of them things.

Hes doing alright over in Russia, be very interested if he can ever transform that to a decent league tho.

Of note, you can watch for Russian league free on You Tube. Kick offs on Saturday about 11am. Pretty dull in fairness.

Yes if managed right Vlasic could have been very good for us, I think Lookman could have been to, our last few managers really did mess things up. Barkley another, I believe he would have stayed if another manager had have been in place. We’ve suffered to a degree since he’s left and he’s suffered more.

Im almost certain I would be an upgrade on what we currently have.

We all have high hopes for Gmblammo, based on not much at all I will admit, but hes defo not the answer, hes a DM, same with Gomes, I love Andre and whilst he will defo improve us hes not what we lack, which is currently somebody to take the midfield, dominate it and spray passes around like a young Pirlo.

Gblammo supposedly does have a good passing range though. From memory, when he had his fifteen minutes of fame for us he tried spraying a few balls.. and missed. Hopefully just down to sharpness.
