So, he's basically a Hesky type player? I'm fine with that. It's helpful to have a target man that quick players like moura and son can pick up loose balls from. A player that can actually hold up the ball and let midfield and attack get forward.

This January window is feeling like the wheeling dealing halycon days on Redknapp!! Trrriffic!

Severely underwhelming. Would any of the other top 6 clubs sign him? No? Then neither should we. We need to act like a big club. We've got money, we need a forward who can play up top or as a wide forward.

So bored of people using the word ‘underwhelming’ when it comes to our transfer targets.

Who the fuck are you all expecting us to sign? Please enlighten me.

Exactly. Signing players mid-season means they pretty much have to saleable by their clubs, meaning:
- They have to be out of favour or surplus, or;
- Their club needs the money, or;
- They have a buy-out fee.

and the club also has to be 'unaffected' by the sale (e.g. not needing the player for a league push etc.).


Not many decent players who meet that criteria. Not even in the league below.

Under Poch we signed Gazzaniga, Foyth and Lo Celso to join their Argentine compatriot Lamela.

Under Mourinho our first signing has been a fellow Portuguese in Gedson Fernandes and there have been whispers around Bruno Fernandes, Nelson Semedo and sorta-Portuguese-y Ze Luis.

With due respect to @Donki, I hope to fuck that Brendan Rogers never becomes our manager.
