Soooo, which centre back do we go for or do you want us to sign in January?

 

I personally would go for Upamecano at RB. Still only 21 and a beast already.

 

 

According to Kicker, his new contract has a €42m release clause, but this is irrelevant as this comes into effect the summer if we try to sign him in January.

 

Aren't utd supposedly in for him? 

 

Would be hilarious just to see their fans crying if we signed him.

We would have to offer them about another £20m-£25m on top of that for them to consider selling in January. Did we offer Liepzig something similar with Keita as he was going to have a release clause active from the following season?

If he is as good as they say, then it's a deal. I think if we are in a title race come January (we will be unless Ali and one of Mo or Sadio is out for months), then it makes sense to get it done. If we're chasing top 4, then the extra 20-25 million makes sense. If we're completely fucked and have no hope of anything, then use January to get him next summer and build a new generation of mentality monsters.

It’s imperative that we bring a striker in IMO. It’s really costing us at the moment.

only time it might cost us is if bobby is out injured. Origi isnt the most convincing back up you never know what side of him is going to turn up

I would be surprised if we bought someone. We might do a caulker type signing.

Agreed. I don't think we'll buy anyone we weren't already thinking of buying next summer. We don't really do significant unplanned purchases.

Let's assume we are looking at the lad at Leipzig. Why would they let him go mid-season for anything but a king's ransom? And we don't do king's ransoms.

I have doubts that one, we'd sign a player of Upamecano's standing, if we sign a CB at all, but two, if we sign a CB, I think it will be a younger, unproven CB who accepts he may not get that many games when everyone is fit. He'd probably be a left side CB too, because we have two right sided ones. Upamecano is right sided. I have a feeling it would be a left footer as we don't have any.
