Does feel as though Skriniar maybe becoming difficult to do this window. Also just seen Fulham maybe looking to bring in Joachim Anderson from Lyon. Wonder if he is available whether he is someone we make look to make a late move for. Remember us being linked to him last summer.

I don't really know how good Tarkwoski is, to be totally honest. Could be like Hojbjerg, where we think he'd be better in a better team?

The only players I can think of that it could be are Tarkwoski or John Stones?! (surely not)

Unless they're foreign but trained in England, to which I have no idea.

Statistically Tarkowski is right up there against any other CB in the premier league and he is a leader at the back he controls the line for Burnley. I think he would be a good signing and it would piss off Wet Spam fans so a little bonus there as well.
 

curlacious

Don’t look at me. I’m irrelevant.

I’d rather Stones on loan than no defender at all. Gives us options and José might get the best out of him.

Strange message coming out of the club if true, not willing to over pay for Skriniar and happy with our current options but next minute we're rumoured to be looking at Diop, Rudiger, Stones etc as alternatives.

If we're happy with our current options then surely we should only be considering genuine improvements like Skriniar.

Sorry - but this is not true - we do not have to. It just means a non-HG player will not be in the squad if we don't. And I imagine players who we are trying to move on or loan out will be less reluctant to do so when they realise are not included in the squad. Plus the domestic window stays open longer, so someone like Gazzaniga could still move to a championship club after today.

Not so sure Levy will see it that way. He won't want to have a player in the squad who can't play and he is paying his wages.
If Gazzaniga and possibly Sissoko leave (reports linking him to a loan), then I can see a CB joining.
I didn't expect anything to happen today, however with Tanganga picking up another injury and Foyth leaving, that might covince Levy to bring in a CB, possibly not Skriniar though.
