January Transfer Window 2023

[john jako]

Bet we get linked with any Celtic player who does half decent against us tonight

 

[Rita_Poon]

I know he has his knockers,

Steady, I know he's put on a little weight...

Henrik Larsson still play for them?

Look at the squad Napoli have accumulated the last couple of seasons and the same with Atlanta. Without checking I don’t know the costs, but I can’t imagine they were high-value elite signings. Scouting and negotiating is presumably the key. Over to you Kevin.

 

[Goodisongang]

Striker and a winger or we'll be in another fight at the bottom, a front 3 who don't score goals or create goals, recipe for disaster.

And you know why? Cos hes not easy to replace.

I know he has his knockers, im very biased, so I wont list his attributes, but at his very best, fully fit, well I wont use the word elite, but hes a top class Striker.

No, im not putting him in the top, top tier.

But hes not easy to replace, you look at the Strikers bought this Summer.

The fella at Big Red, nearly 100m, sadly looks like hes gonna turn out decent
Rich Arl Ison 60m big 1s, for a 10 goal a season player, no disrespect to the boy, very talented and defo brings more than goals
Haaland, without his release clause, defo 100m
The boy Jesus was a snip at a mere 45m, never been his biggest fan, but doing very well for Arse
Isak at Newcastle 70m

And no, we arent operating in that bracket.

So Seb Haller 45m, Tosun 27m, you get the picture.

Im not saying its impossible, but its defo not easy.

Not to mention a massive outlay, we are replacing a 50m Striker, without the 50m hes "worth", was worth.

It isn't and yes when he's fit he's probably better than anyone we could afford right now. But you can at least try to buy forward players with some record of scoring no matter the league. We bring.in players without that and are then surprised we can't score

 

[billyblue80]

As much as we need a striker and a wide forward, in my view we need a playmaker too. Garner maybe can do it from deeper but we need someone who can dovetail and rotate with Iwobi and who gets goals. Whether thats's January or the summer.

 

[Toffe3m4n]

After the game Lampard mentioned the January window in respect to improving the goals situation, so let's hope that's the case.

 

[blulouie]

That lad up front for Ecuador looks good , scored 2 now.

Erm.....Sign him up Kevin.

Send maupay to besikatas and welcome this legend back home ?, seriously and this is the state we’re in he walks back into our attack

Our central midfield is also diabolical and urgently needs improving if we want to avoid oblivion.

….Gueye, Onana, Garner and Doucoure. 3 of them new signings in the summer, I can’t see any additions coming into that area.

 

[windymiller]

If not selling Pickford meant no decent attacking signings then I’d be onboard for selling and replacing.

In an ideal world we shouldn't be thinking of selling Pickford, but we are so toothless that I agree with you. We should look to sell players like Keane first, mind you.

They're all crap imo. Championship standard.

….ah, I see. Championship standard, yet two of them are at the World Cup with top teams.
