January Transfer Window 2018

[Azza]

Given Costas return to Atletico, maybe we can convince Gameiro to come here for regular games in the lead up to the World Cup.

Why would he join a team that doesn't create chances? Not exactly going to help his World Cup ambitions.

Almost like clockwork how these stories of phantom bids come out after every transfer window failing

If the club had put the story out we wouldn't be giving it to Marca would we? This has come from their end.

Who knows, but every single year after a transfer failing you get a story coming out how we tried in vein with some mad offer for a player completely out of our league

Do you know having seen Niasse play I don't think Giroud is what we need. We need someone with pace and movement as well as power. Giroud is a very good target man but he's the wrong side of 30 and can't stretch teams.

A paper says we'll bid 40m for Giroud in January.

Dembele of Celtic?

In truth, we could do with at least 2 Strikers if we're to seriously compete. Giroud would still be an excellent buy but I agree, Oumar's movement for the first highlighted what we have been missing.

Came to exactly the same conclusión yesterday.

We do not need another slow player.

Speed got us out of jail yesterday, when it was introduced.

..I think it was Marca who also reported we bid £35m for Jimenez on the final day of the window. I did read they are a mouthpiece for Benfica although they are a Spanish outlet.
