January Transfer Thread 2020

[brieverton]

I'd be happy to see any new players I don't have a severe dislike towards... yet.

I'm not half as excited about transfers like I used to be, too many disappointments and letdowns amongst them. Hope Carlo gets it right.

On this, you and I are in complete agreement.

Its the British obsession with pace and power over technique.

....I think it’s a balance, you do need pace and power in key areas on the pitch but you also need real quality. Brilliant if a player has both.

We'll he's lacking on that front too. Nothing to do with us being British, he's dog toffee. Happy to be proven wrong. Over rated, over paid, he was synonymous with all that was wrong in the latter years of Wenger.

This. Theo has pace in abundance. Ends.

We need a leader in midfield we haven't had one since Barry really Gana led by example but not so much as a personality.

A modern day Lee Carsley

If @JLW Is right and we manage to get Gabriel from Lille then thats our left sided centre back sorted...also if we do Everton Soares we'll have 'fixed' the whole left side of the team...

Gabriel / Digne
Gomes / Soares

Pretty tasty.

Or Lee Carsley. No worse than current lot!

 

[Paul Rideout]

Have another look, No. 70(?) at bottom of picture is 4 - 5 yds behind him, and has nearly caught him. He probably heard him and paniced. But you're right, he should've kept on, took the foul or whatever.
Waste of a shirt unless you've only got 10.

oh I see the player, but he’s coming round the wrong side of him (not goal side). He could at least have moved it 5-10 yards closer to the net.

basically we think the same thing. Get shut of him & play one of the under 23s instead.

 

[Jimmy Grimble]

Just watching palace v arsenal. Thank God we didn't get zaha. Please don't go back in for him

 

[bullybeef]

Is @JLW the new in vogue ITK?

 

[Peter The Dog]

I'd take a punt on Batshuayi if he's available on loan.

he’s garbage. Another striker that doesn’t score.

Doesn't play. When he plays he gets goals.
