Surely we must have somebody lined up to sign on 1st January ?? Even at our boards level of complete incompetence this must be the case ?
We Can only hope thelwell hasn’t been infected by the useless shower of turds, ignores kenshite and mosh on any player and does his job even half professionally.

I ain’t holding my breath - we’ve been down this road before….
 
If we want Gyokeres we should have already put a bid in and have terms agreed. If he wants to mess about and see who else comes in for him we should move on to our next target. We need reinforcements now, not ready for February 1st.
Absolutely we need them asap,waiting late Jan would be suicide but it’s what this shower of a board will probably do
 

Liverpool belled Gakpo the other day and within hours a deal was agreed and a flight booked.

Everton? not even a single sniff of the kind of player we really need ready to walk through the door first week of January..

Absolutely fed up of footy, me.
Amazing how you think that happened that quick, they’ve been after him since the summer, as were we, United and a couple of other clubs, they just structured a package that suited PSV better
 
Really need a player in fast to give us all a lift, a fit dcl back in the side wont work now has already shown we cant trust him to play enough. Hope they have already started working on deals but just can not trust anyone at the club to make the right calls. Is really quiet on the club that just makes me worried

Correct this window is different too there were no distractions for six weeks it's why other teams have deals done already, we should have boxed off a few players already too. But Everton will be looking at the books and trying to save a few weeks wages in January and worrying about how they meet Coventry's valuation, give up and one of our rivals swoops in, then they panic loan someone trash at the last minute. Our club is run like it's still 1994 and I suspect we will be in the mud throughout this season we will be very lucky if we don't go down this season!

Yep should have deals ready for 1st January but we all know its going to be the end of the window which is to late to save this season. Horrible club to support these days, so predictable and pointless. Just waiting for the ground to go belly up next, probably end up going to the RS! It would be soooo Everton.
 
The problem is, we are tying him down to a deal that pretty much guarantees he’ll be leaving the club in 5 years for nothing. There is quite simply no chance anyone pays a fee for him and matches his current wages. If we go down we’re taking him on £100k a week with us.
Yeah look I think if he's getting £100k a week it's daft.

I'd be offering him the same terms, perhaps with more incentives, but just on a two-year extension.

FWIW any deal now that is struck with any player is going to have relegation clauses in, which makes the whole signing players thing even more difficult.
 
Moving late on targets appears to be a new strategy with thelwell...onana was a late move after west ham made the initial approach. Maupay move was also late whilst it was clear he had no intention of staying at brighton or brighton had no intention of offering him an extension, and we tried a late move on morgan gibbs-white after initial approach from forest. It appears that we are doing the same this time around. We were probably in for cunha as soon as wolves went in but with the fee required probably backed out from the deal. It will be the same for gyokeres and/or brereton diaz. They're trying to look like they're in control but clearly our results would suggest otherwise.
 
Really need a player in fast to give us all a lift, a fit Dominic Calvert-Lewin back in the side wont work now has already shown we cant trust him to play enough. Hope they have already started working on deals but just can not trust anyone at the club to make the right calls. Is really quiet on the club that just makes me worried
Its more a case of relying rather than trusting. Keep saying it's not his fault he's injured. State of some folk in here.
