January Transfer Window 2023

[Goat]

The fact we aint even getting anyone in on loan makes me think we're on the verge of investment/a takeover.

No other explanation + Lampard not being sacked.

I mean there are a million other explanations.

We are bidding for players, but nobody wants to join us.

Anything? A sniff?

We are pondering and mulling all across Europe and other emerging markets.

I farted about 15 minutes mate

….i’d think they’d be looking to protect their investment by insisting new players come in. January is last chance saloon.

But he can't run.

Neither is McNeil. I want good players but do we have money to buy?

 

[hktoffee]

We should try to loan Digne back.

I've not see anything concrete to suggest we are tbh.

A lot of rumours but not seen any of the usual reporters close to the club like Hunter, Joyce, O'Keefe etc claim any serious interest in players.

 

[Blue83]

he was decent 3 years ago

Was he though ?

 

[everton1953]

Villa don't want him which confirms we were right to get shut.

We have to do something as a club to change the current trajectory or we are going down!
Bringing back Simms and Onyango from loans is not the answer unless you play them and even then there is no indication that will make a difference.
Getting Garner fit and playing will not make enough of a difference. He is not THAT much better than Doucoure (Yet).
Buying or loaning nobody is a ticket to the Championship - and then we can all support our once great club in their efforts to get back to the Premiere League next season.
Surely even Lampard, Thelwell, Blue Bill and Moshiri see this too. They are not stupid or deaf.

This is what gets me the lack of action makes you wonder if it's deliberate I understand the financial issues but you can make moves if you really want to move people on

 

[blueconverse]

Have we had the same scouts for a number of years or do they change as part of the backroom staff with every new manager

Its a fair point, but they also arent talking about any serious investment either.

 

[carolinablue232]

I mean, they said in December that targets were identified. I doubt they were looking at players they couldn't afford to even bring in because whats the point?

It's just a whole lot of idiotic people running everything at this club ffs...

Do you really think they actually thought things through? We either had no plan, overestimated our ability to get said targets, or it was just another smokescreen.

 

[Charles Hawtrey]

Its a fair point, but they also arent talking about any serious investment either.

In any market we would be foolish to go around saying 'we have 50M to spend' that just jacks prices up. The club is obviously trying to keep things under the radar, even though it risks further fan ire!
