Silly Season January 2014

Ok maybe wait till 31/1 and if there is no more incoming then we will start worrying. I am sure the manager knows the best.

Exactly, bet we sign someone else this window and RM is saying we won't just to keep the deal he has in line quiet.

A few days ago Man U weren't signing anyone and now they have Mata lined up.
 

Is it just me or is the 'wait until the summer' thought process for transfers happened every year? And we all kid ourselves it will be different next year, of course the close to 20 (or is it 40) million we have generated will go into the team.

I agree that Roberto does not want to deal in this window, i am just not hanging my hope on the money being available in the summer either.

No, wait until the summer

The player he wants might not be up for grabs now

Also yes I would say out of Martinez and the posters on here he knows best
 

January has always been a sellers market.

How many Champions league quality players are available in January? A few at most.

How many of these are available without a massive mark-up? Even fewer.

Why spend 2 or 3 times the amount a player would cost on someone who's not Martinez first choice? And then potentially miss out in the summer when first choice targets are available?

After Traore, I'd personally like us to agree a deal for Barry and get a CM on loan, but if we don't fine:

If we have Mirallas, Deulofeu, McGeady and Naismith as cover for wide players that means at a push Pienaar can cover CM, as can Ossie and Barkley. Gibbo's back in April.

We have Lukaku, Traore (hopefully, but there'll be other targets if not), Naismith and Mirallas who can cover up front, with Kone returning in April too.

Things aren't as bad as they seem.
