January 2018 transfer window thread.

Gylfi is way better than gray, what has gray actually done in his career so far?

I wasn't suggesting instead of Sig but instead of a Klassen for instance. We needed raw pace and width.

 

[bluestevon]

Definitely.


Really hope I’m proved wrong, but I just don’t see Sigurdsson as a top 6 player. Too slow & limited. All the top 6 play with pacey players, who can interchange. Silva-DeBruyne-Sterling, Rashford-Lingard-Martial, Ozil-Sanchez, Eriksen-Ali etc...etc... Leicester won the league with Mahrez. Sigurdsson doesn’t fit that bill at all. He slows play down. I’d rather see Lookman & Vlasic ahead of him & definitely Mahrez.

Makes sense until you look at the fact that one player in most of those teams you list is actually not a fast player, Silva isn't, neither is Ozil, or Eriksen.

Where did the links to Nicolas Gaitan originate from?

Out of someone’s rear I’d guess BlueStevo.

LOL true enough it probably is mate, couldn't be arsed sourcing the origin of the article i read, possibly from AS originally maybe - which backs up your statement about it's likelihood of having anything in it.

Probably obtainable as well and for less than it'd cost to get a Walcott type in. Shame it's almost certainly guff like

the lid lingo in this thread...

He probably wouldn't have joined us though in all honesty

If we paid him what we were paying Gilfi I am sure he would have considered us

It's not even January and we won't top this tweet as the full package

Their defence plays further forward meaning pace in their midfield is less important.

..I don’t, Matey. Looks ok on the limited YouTube links and supported by decent stats apparently. Scores goals as a CF or winger.

Cheers mate

Hope we use a couple of loan deals going the other way to push a couple of these transfers over the line, sure Sevilla would love Klassen on loan ...

 

[bluestevon]

Tosun in - Niasse out, Nzonzi in Schneiderlin out, Gaitan in - Mirallas out, De Vrij in - Jags out, Shaw in - Martina out. Gameiro in, Barkley re signed

and then get rid of some more dross - should only cost us about 120m which we don't have, and i predict maybe 1 of those will happen...

Going to pip Stoke for Danny Ings on loan.
