NUFC transfer rumours in the press


Recommended Posts

One or two usually means none.

 

When does he ever say anything other than one or two? It's the bog standard line every window.

this along with January isn't a great time to buy are standard manager phrases at press conferences tbh.

This one of two is always trotted out by Pardew in every window. He said he wants English players which might bring the likes of Zaha and Ince into the equation. We need a forward though and can't think of a decent English one that fits our cheap and cheerful criteria. Maybe we will go back for De Jong on loan. Can't see anything happening in early January though - our brinkmanship won't allow it!

This "one or two" line is trotted out by 90% of managers every January tbh. Here's Pulis last week.

 

"We have to bring one or two players in, that is important. I think everyone understands that, and I think the group would be the first to be pleased with that."

 

And that's from a club who probably need 4 or 5. :lol:

Its just about expectations really isn't it, a manager is never going to say "We need 5 players" when they know their boss is never going to sanction it.

 

One or two is very vague and not promising too much, we get none and we have fallen just short, we sign more and the club have done an amazing job.

 

I thought we were desperate for a CB in the summer but Williamson is doing bloody well, MYM is struggling to get on the pitch and I rate Taylor more than most it seems so I am happy there for the moment. My priority would be a physical forward or someone who can allow Gouffran to go central.

 

This will all change when we lose a few games before now and the end of January :lol:
