January Transfer Window 2023

[Mr Happy]

Dyche bigging up the players we’ve already got. Fact is if we started Dom and Maupay up front with McNeil and Gray out wide - not only is that genuinely dreadful, there would be absolutely no attacking replacements on the bench bar Simms.

But conceivably might work ?

if we have a few attacking players injured at once, i think we're in big big trouble. absolutely shameful when you see the depth some of our relegation rivals have

If you want to finish bottom yes.

Every football club knows we’ve got £45m for the ginger Magaye Gueye burning a hole in our pocket and will fleece us accordingly.

I think it's more a case of players not wanting to come here myself. I can think of at least 4/5 now that have turned down a move. We are just a bit unstable at the moment and don't really present a great option for a player. Add in the fact we have to be clever how we structure deals doesn't make it an easy window.

Yea, we might need to hope Dyche can galvinise the current squad, stabilise us to rebuild next summer when hopefully we look a whole lot better...
I still think we will get a face or 2 through the door, but its tough this january window at the best of times

It’s an absolute travesty that we haven’t managed to get a single player in when we needed three or four to save this season.

Didn’t get a striker for Lampard in the summer until several games had past and left the same dreadful and low on confidence squad stumble through January.

Unforgivable.

I don’t think this is true considering players have been going to worse teams than us over the years but also aside from that I’m not actually opposed to bringing some absolute yard dogs in.

Genuinely, I’d love to have a team that other players hate playing against, give them a properly torrid time. Never got the aversion to that kind of player for us. We’ve got some “proper footballers” but I think this squad could certainly do with some nastiness about it, we’re far too easy to play against as it is.

Yes not saying it's necessarily a bad thing, it's about time we stopped buying "proven" flashy footballers, in fact, it's entirely what's got us in this mess (Walcott, Bolasie, Sigurdsson, Schneiderlin).
Just anybody going for shouts like Gallagher, Ziyech - no chance.

 

[Mr Happy]

If you want to finish bottom yes.

Well then it wouldn't have worked, so you've missed my point. It's not gonna be pretty so best buckle up and look forward to the old school big man/small man combo up top.

 

[Tony’s Carp]

We’re getting dangerously close to Recall Dobbin territory aren’t we?

 

[mikel_88]

Done for day leaving it to the last day disgrace from the club have no confidence will get anyone in

 

[Papa Shango]

Other teams fans have nice joyous transfer windows. I've hit refresh 2 million times on this thread now and fed up with the whole thing......even a new tea lady would be something.

I hear our current tea lady buys the teabags from Waitrose even though they have the same ones in Home and Bargain for half the price, takes ages to pour the water in, stirs it for ages and then spills it on the floor.

 

[DanB90]

Should have some decent stadium footage to look forward to tomorrow anyway.

 

[steven]

Good news - heard the fax machine in Bill’s office is back up and running

Bad news - it sent a backed up fax so we are signing Alessandro Pistone for a third time.

Should have some decent stadium footage to look forward to tomorrow anyway.

And some more links to unknown investors from America and the middle East who will never materialise.
