January 2022 Transfer Thread

[Sniffer]

Wages could be a problem as we would have to pay the the full amount. I wouldn't imagine a rival being willing to let him come here otherwise.

 

[MARKakaJIM]

Where would he play?

 

[Tony Towner]

On his PlayStation

 

[Wilf Wolf]

Dele Alli, Lucas Moura, Giovani Lo Celso and Bergwijn are all said to be on the chopping block at Spurs.

Interesting. Alli is a prick but if he was our prick...............

I have also been a fan of Moura for a while but I think he commands to big a fee and wages. Bergwijn? No real idea. Has looked good in flashes. I would not mind Alli or Moura on a loan deal in January.

The last position we need to strengthen is wide forwards so whilst I like Moura our needs are much greater elsewhere.

Quite agree. Needs do as needs must. A centre-back and a replacement for Mouthino imo.

 

[The Bear]

Bergwijn might be ok as a No.10. But we'd have to switch to a back four first.

I'd rather have Sanches personally.

With our current squad (I’m factoring in is keeping the loanees, I think we are 3 very good/upgrades away from pushing the ‘big 6/top 6’ on a regular basis, especially if we don’t sell any of our players. We are quite a young team

(2 x CB) + CM = Top 6?

I'm not so sure. We'd need to score more goals from more areas than just Raul/Hwang.

Davinson Sanches? Not for me, not even a little.

Renato. Sorry, had moved from Spurs players at that point but wasn't clear. I meant as a CM player.

 

[Templeton Peck]

Don't need any attacking players and the Spurs lot would be too expensive to justify the risk.

 

[Tony Towner]

Depends how you define attacking. We need a CM to score 8 goals or so a season to give us a different dimension. I don't think he's currently at the club

 

[Freddeno]

Dele Alli is about as interested in playing football as Bright Enobakhare. I guess there's little to lose with a loan with a very small fee, but I doubt he'll be arsed

agree with that

no to all of them, closest one is Lucas Moura for me

None of the spurs lot mentioned will do that.

 

[PuntsWolf]

Not sure there’s many CMs in the world who play in a 2 and get 8 goals excluding set pieces.

 

[The Bear]

Attacking CMs do though. Playing behind a front two.

[/QUOTE

I was actually thinking more 2cms and a cb as in a year - 18 month it’s unlikely moutinho will be suitable.

I think once we have a B2B mid goals from other areas is more likely with runs made etc.

I don’t mean definite too 6, definitely not but I mean a decent challenge/finishing 13th would mean a real poor season

 

[Tony Towner]

Depends if you are looking for an 8 or a 19

Gallagher has 4 from less than half a season for a mid table side

Helps that he's got the legs to get near the opposition goal.
