January 2018 Transfer Thread

[SammyAftershave]

Nice Beaver.

[Pidge]

 

Obligatory.

[J-V]

He passes the ball forward, already an improvement on Henderson.

[lebron]

On Suarez, he's seemed extremely sluggish this season, and his passing/finishing has been woeful. He's probably been carrying an injury, and hasn't looked anything like himself over the last couple of months. He gives the ball away quite a lot for a Barca player anyway, but when his nutmegs and other brilliant stuff doesn't come off, he seems pretty mortal.

 

I actually think we got a couple of his best seasons here, as his desire to chase lost causes and his fitness probably won't increase from here...

 

I'd take him back in a second for his character alone of course, but I'm not sure if those critical over Salah's and Firmino's finishing would be best pleased with Luis either if he reproduces his current Barca form.

[Aventus]

As much as I'd like him back I don't think it's for the best, we need to be targeting the next suarez not the old one.

[Jay86]

 

Obligatory.

He looks very decent, we should let him sign for Tottenham and moan about missing out on him for the rest of his career. In all seriousness he does look like he has that something different from most English players and technically looks brilliant, if there is a release clause and it isn’t massive we should take a closer look at him and see how he develops. Sign him now or in January and let him go down the Alli/Gruijic route and have him stay there for the remainder of the season.

[Barrington Womble]

Sheffield United manager Chris Wilder has denied there is a release clause in the new contract signed by David Brooks, 20, who is the subject of interest from Liverpool.

 

 

Anyone know anything about this lad?

He's a young lad who's playing for Sheffield United and rumour has it he has a release clause, which is a helping attract interested from premier league clubs, one of which is us.

[Red74]

Fuck Suarez. Although he gave me a reason for getting out of bed every day THAT season, let’s not forget the little cunt tried every summer to get the fuck out of here. We were a disgrace for not letting him get his dream moves to Juve, Arse ( having to force him into posing in the guardian with his compo face on) & in the end Barca. Especially as he used to always go those teams on FIFA as well.

 

Let him rot now his knees have gone

 

N.B I would just like to add that I’d have had him back every summer since he left us

[aws]

Bring him here on loan in Jan.

[Russ Atmosphere]

Teeth too pointy.

[Red74]

If I was van dijks agent, I’d be looking elsewhere to be dropping my client off. Unless we’re signing a Koulibaly type to partner him, I’d be avoiding us like the plague at the minute.

 

He’s being talked about again by Sky after the game as already being our saviour and with a massive money transfer and when every step you take on a pitch is gonna be scrutinised to the nth degree. With the way we’re set up to defend, I could do without that added pressure.

 

Klopp’s brought a lot of pressure on himself now by not strengthening correctly in each of the last 4 window. He’s gonna be looking at replacing a lot of players this summer and if he goes against all sanity again, I fear it’s gonna be more of what we’re getting served now.

Mate, every transfer window from 2013 |17 just called saying they want their targets back.

[Boss]

Van Dijk isn't going to sort this out on his own. It'll take Oblak, Ghoulam, Van Dijk and Koulibaly to sort this defence out, with the protection of Keita in front of them and someone like Werner up front. It'd take, barre minimum £200m of investment. 

[Lee909]

Spunking 70ml on VVD will make no fucking difference.

 

Matip proving he is as bick as issue as anyone. The fact Moreno looks one of the better players in the back 5 says everying. We have the most pointless midfield in the league. They all offer next to fuck all offensively or any sort of cover at the back.

[Thoth]

He's a young lad who's playing for Sheffield United and rumour has it he has a release clause, which is a helping attract interested from premier league clubs, one of which is us.

Cheers Sherlock

[Barrington Womble]

Cheers Sherlock

Whoosh.

[Thoth]

Whoosh.

No I understood.. you clearly don’t get sarcasm

[Barrington Womble]

No I understood.. you clearly don’t get sarcasm

Ok

[SlugTrail]

We need a new GK, RB, 2 CB's, a min of 3 CB's a CF and maybe a back up winger who isn't a total retard. Apart from that we are all good.

[SlugTrail]

Van Dijk isn't going to sort this out on his own. It'll take Oblak, Ghoulam, Van Dijk and Koulibaly to sort this defence out, with the protection of Keita in front of them and someone like Werner up front. It'd take, barre minimum £200m of investment.

 

let's just ask FSG to pony up the money,

[G Richards]

Between January and summer we need to add:

 

Oblak

VVD

Keita

Goretzka

Werner

 

And if Coutinho leaves a top class replacement like Lemar.

[Wezza]

What concerns me is that January seems an awfully long way off

[Johnlj]

Don't worry Wezza. 

 

There is no value in January. FSG and Klopp says so. 

 

We'll save the money for our gazilioned filled piggy bank. Or as Mr. Henry wants to call it. Red Sox.

[usernameunknown]

Yep we'll do fuck all in January. "It's too hard to buy in January", "the players arent available". I almost think the club have totally given up on January and barely even acknowledge it exists anymore. No doubt one of our top 4 rivals will find a player that improves them for the run in though.
