Transfer Window

[PaddyG]

Before the spurs game it seemed alot of us wanted changes to be made in January, I just want to ask is there anyone you would like to see leave? Pienaar? Heitinga? The Yak and Saha have been mentioned.

I am of the belief though that this squad is still very strong and capable of winning things and with maybe the exception of Anichebe I would like to see everyone stay. I am convinced Bily will turn good, we just need to get behind him, Heitinga looks decent at the back as we all know, and i still rate the Yak highly.

Unless very good money comes in, i say don't sell, this season can still be a success, starting at the ****e.

I want to sell Pienaar now, so we can work on getting someone to fill his shoes and get some cash, and I want Heitinga to go, for cash. The Yak is seemingly off too.


I want another CB to come in, and hopefully Kranjcar.

 

[PaddyG]

would be good as long as we got the right money, seen reports as low as 2mil for the yak, that would be terrible, I wouldn't wanna take anything less then 6mil, and would love for Pienaar to stay, not looking likely though is it?

 

[Tubey]

If we can get a few million for Pienaar, then yes. For the 4-5 months he'd be here before leaving on a free, I'd rather see our club take around £2m and run.

Saha to a gullible French club for around £4m would be awesome - but if he really is finding a vein of form then it might be worth keeping him till the summer.

Anything circa £5-6m for Yak is a no-brainer. Bilyaletdinov for £7m-ish wouldn't be the worst thing in the world.

However, all that said, if Everton sell nobody and bring in say two players on loan, I'd be happy. But it does show our squad quality that we can raise around £17-18m through the sale of out-of-form/fringe players when the need arises.

 

[PaddyG]

if only we didnt need to sell to buy, does get frustrating when the best player we seem to be linked with plays in the championship

 

[FinchFarmBlue]

JV is likely to be the 1st to be offloaded over the next week for circa 1.5m- suppose it depends how much of that fee is given upfront as to how useful it might be. What Spurs might do in the market may be the start of other players moving - no secret they want SP, but they are also looking to take Parker from the Hammers this month- which could leave them with a few more quid to prise the Yak away, although like a number of folk I'd prefer him to stay with us. As to our targets, if any, will Davey prise a gem from abroad that might have the same impact as our Mikel did in 2005?- hope so, but if not, if we can just regain our confidence over a consistent run of matches it can be like an extra man in the types of games we've struggled with the last 5 months.

Id prob hold fire untill the summer if im honest, Jans a bad time for anything else bar essential additions i.e. we could prob do with a loan striker - id go for Carew myself. Maybe a young player or two.

The whole transfer and money thing isnt causeing me to much alarm to be honest, i have faith in whats bubbleing under the surfice in

Baxter,
Barkley,
Gueye,
Duffy,
Rodwell,
Hope,
Garbutt,
Bidwell,
Mustafi,
Coleman,

There are also some i havent mentioned, who are less likely for me, but could potentialy come good.

10 players who could potentialy make the step up in the next year or players the team will develop around in Jack and Seamus already forceing their way in the team as being prime examples. I remember Moyes making the point about transfers that you have to leave space in your squad to let young players come through. We need to look to home first. Arsenal is a prime expample of how a little paitence can pay of - they will dominate the Prem shortly IMO.

A case in point is Seamus, we all would have creamed ourselves if we dropped 10mill on the Don in the summer, but would Seamus have been stuck on the bench for the entire season with no space to develop and gain expierence!

I thought you were banned Ghost lad?

 

[ijjysmith]

I'm 88.7% certain we won't sign anyone this window. Loan or otherwise.

 

[Phenom]

Think the Yak is a foregone conclusion aint it?

 

[Robert Jarvis]

Not the 10th and there is no word at all of any movement out of any player let alone any incoming. I think this window for us will be a non event.
