Realistic Transfer Targets January 2010

I can't see us buying any one but if we do it will probably be on the last day of the transfer window. Because of the 'Emergency loans' rule I'd be surprised if we even bother to have any loans we are planing on doing done by the end of the transfer window.

 

That being said, it has been a pretty quiet transfer window for most clubs so far hasn't it? A lot of media speculation but very little actual business.

for me after yesterdays game;

 

 

-Sign up a right back. Wouldnt mind Simpson on loan till end of season, should get better if we are to stay up if we get promoted.

-Right Winger/Right Midfielder. Need one to keep the width and help our right back more. Loads of time yesterday Simpson where outnumbered. Also we are quite onesided.

-Striker. I won't mind Carroll / Løvenkrands. But it was pretty clear yesterday that Shola is usually piss poor, and we probably should find one more. Seems Shola only get goals when alone on top with Nolan behind him? Absolute shit yesterday anyway.

I think a lot of people are forgetting that we played the best team in the league yesterday, of course some players were going to get showed up. The current batch of players we have are good enough to get us promoted. We can spend in the summer when the money comes in.

WBA aren't the best team in the league they got their arses handed to them on a plate by Forest last week. Other than that i agree with your post, it's pointless wasting money on players if they aren't the ones we want. A couple of loan signings will do, hopefully that will see us through to promotion.

Apparently this Perch character can play a whole lot of positions in defence and midfield. If this is the case, then we shouold go ahead and sign him up as we're short in numbers for every midfield and defensive position.

 

Wikipedia says he's Forest's captain, would they really sell him to a promotion rival?

Them selling him is about as likely as us paying for him tbh :shifty:

See what you're saying but i disagree. We've got numerous jack of many trades/master of none cloggers in our midfield. We badly need a specialist right-midfielder above anything imo.

We need pace in the middle of the park. QPR, Forest & WBA have all caused us major problems through quick passing and pace from box to box through the centre. Last night was embarrassing at times with the space and spare men they had through this area.

 

Ideally, I'd also like to see pace on the right wing as well but we were found well wanting at times last night.

10:30 Rodrigo Possebon has returned to Manchester United from a loan-spell at Portugese club Sporting Braga. Unfortunately for Manchester United, the highly-regarded Brazilian only made a few appearences for Braga and reportedly continually failed to turn up for training.

 

Newcastle United were apparently keen on landing Possebon in a possible loan deal, Chris Hughton might now renew his interest in the striker.

Out-of-favour Sunderland striker David Healy is pleading with clubs to consider snapping him up before the end of the current transfer window.

The Northern Ireland striker has failed to win a regular starting place for the Black Cats since moving to the club in August 2008.

"I know my future is not going to be at Sunderland," Healy told BBC Sport.

"I'm more than willing to go back to the Championship and get back to enjoying my football again."

Healy added:"It's been a disappointing time and people have said that it's time to move on but when you have a contract and a family where you live, sometimes it's difficult."

Healy has been linked with a number of clubs but the 30-year-old downplayed those press reports as "speculation".

"I haven't got my eye on anywhere. I have been linked to a number of Championship clubs but I can't name anybody.

"But it's two weeks until the end of the transfer window and I know that things aren't going to progress for me at Sunderland."

Healy acknowledged that a return to League One leaders Leeds would interest him.

"If there was a club I was ever going to go back to play for, it would be Leeds. I have huge affection for the club."

In November, Healy failed to win a starting place for Northern Ireland's friendly against Serbia.

It was the first time Healy had been dropped for a home game at Windsor Park since his international career started in February 2000.

 

Quality finisher who will thrive with regular football.  Please, PLEASE bring him in!

I would be okay with us taking a punt on Healy.  Did well in the SPL if I remember correctly?  I figure that's about on par with the Championship.

 

Not the SPL mate. He did alright at Leeds in the Championship.

Just look at his hat-trick against Spain if you want examples of his finishing.  He would be able to do a job for us, no doubt.  I actually think he was Premier League quality a few years ago.  Maybe not anymore.
