The L.C.A.B. / THT Transfer Window Thread ....

[Gwladys Nights]

Would be happy with SWP on loan. Not sure I necessarily want him permanently straight away. Not sure where he'd start, but he has qualities that our squad tends to lack i.e. PACE.

 

[stockport toffee]

would prefer a striker to Swp.

 

[Phenom]

Spurs have had bids rejected for Aguero, Negredo, Llorente and Rossi. WTF is going on!!!

I hate spurs!

They are doing what we should have done when we finished 4th

even when we finished 4th we had a snowball's chance in hell of spending more than 10mil total let alone 40m on one player.

That is the ultimate truth as our turnover was even more of a relative pittance back then

God I hope Landon's plane isn't delayed.

I totally laughed out loud - and then it took me down the comical path of thinking about Everton frantically looking for a physician that could perform his medical on the plane on the flight over. Then I was thinking of him sprinting up and down plane aisles for the speed test. All of this done against a clock rapidly approaching 11pm. And then I dissolved into more laughter.

Very witty, Reidy - very witty.

Isn't really what we need but I wouldn't say no if he's the best we can get. I doubt we're even interested anyway.

 

[Tennessee Blue Mike]

O'Hara on a loan to Wolves hurts to most.

 

[zed]

We do not need new faces, we need Moyes to use the players he has better.

THIS. i dont care if we get dont get anyone in this window. i love the squad we have (`cept nev)

 

[Gwladys Nights]

Could do with another striker surely zed? Even if just for the numbers?

Even in the case of injuries? The lack of depth (in particular on the wings) scares me.

EDIT: Oh yeah, and the striker problem, how could I forget that too.

According to the Guardian, Brum's deal for Martins not yet finalised. Maybe we could nip in for him? He's still only 26, knows Anichebe's game from the international team, has Prem experience and a better than 1 in 3 strike rate for Inter, Newcastle, Wolfsburg and Nigeria. He'd give us something different and Moysie is used to getting the best out of much-travelled players.

 

[Birdman1878]

My source tells me Kevin Campbell is signing on a 6 month loan deal to save the day again.

 

[Kever10]

Anyone else scared that if we DO sign someone, in desperation, and we still do crap, the extra money - that we didnt really have - will be the ruining of us? Ie, fire sale in the summer?

Fellaini for £30m, Rodwell for £20m+ = we get about £20m to spend INCLUDING wages, so realistically, about £10m for 2 average or 4 below average players

...and maybe some teenagers from each of worst "youth footballing hotbed" leagues in the world

Would be a grat addition but I think the only thing stalling the deal is a work permit.Like Yak his age is questionable but on loan for 6 months we would have nothing to loose.
