January Transfer Window 2023

Just not having Elanga at all

Same.

 

[Nyhus]

Anyone still be pissed if we ended the window like this? (Ignoring injuries)

Could shift 2x CB's and maybe 1x CM if Iwobi is only out for the 3 weeks.

I would be happy about the incoming, but a couple of outgoings like Davis and Keane would be good too.

 

[blueboy72]

Danjuma (loan with option to buy)
Elanga (loan)
A striker signed by our Jan budget

Then we are good to go. There is no excuse for FL not to win the home games and he must keep us up.

Striker will probably be the Diaz lad from Blackburn.

So basically 1 player who starts and 2 who sit on the bench, Diaz and Elanga would be a total waste imo.

Calvert-Lewin is injury prone and I rather see Elanga plays than McNeil.

Agree. Really need to stop wasting money on athletes, the likes of Iwobi and Walcott over the years. Team is crying of someone who’s got an actual football brain in the 6, 8 and/or 10 positions, not someone who looks good because he’s rapid.

But he’s just sitting on the bench,
He’s unproven to the point that is he better than gray or Gordon. And go and get ings, Diaz is another big gamble, Armstrong scored more at Blackburn and he’s bombed at Southampton

Was just looking I know Danjuma is mainly a winger but he has played up front, in fact six appearances up front this season with two goals. Hope we secure him. Elanga I'm less convinced on can he play off the right?

 

[The Blue Orca]

Would love to sign Kudus. On paper the Gueye, Onana and Iwobi midfield looks good but it’s just not working for me.

Indeed we don't know if it either Danjuma or Elanga..also as much as I know Danjuma i doubt he can lead the line like DCL. At his best as a left winger. So agree if we get one winger in i would focus on a central striker like Ings or Gyokeres

 

[Milkman]

Elanga is way too raw to make an impact for a team battling relegation whose own fans hate them. Why would any sensible club loan us their youngsters anyway?

If a loan yes but Villa say no. Don’t want to overspend on overpriced 31 years old English striker. Villa could ask for £20m.

He’s 31 in
July and is a proven prem forward,
If it was 10mil With 5mil in add ons if we stay up, I think that’s a good deal. Also he would put serious pressure on DCL which is what he needs, he’s had tosun, rondon, and maupay the last few years, knows if he’s fit he starts. And it would be the same With Diaz imo

 

[billyblue80]

Maybe the two wingers then we spend on a striker am I being too optimistic? Probably

31 in July…in a year or so he regresses then we will moan as to why the Club wasting money on an ageing player…we never learn etc.

Maybe McNeil could play left back?
