BONTEMPI Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 Tbh I'd be surprised if we signed one this window. Whilst painful for fans, watching this lot fuck it up will give some small satisfaction. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdckelly Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 No interest in Koulibaly and not focused on signing a defender according to Ryder. who in gods name could look at our defense and think; "yeah thats good enough for a premier league team" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Another 22 year old hot prospect who hasn't been tested at the top level. Well when we get relegated he might hit the ground running in the championship. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
U2 Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Riviere is like a new signing for us now he's back in training apparently: http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/steve-mcclaren-talks-surprise-new-10667927? Well, if his performances for his old club (Newcastle) were anything to go by, he'll stink up the place. Plus he's coming off the back of a long injury...

Unbelievable Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 He'll be 23 next week and he's only ever played two games in league one, the rest in league two. If this is the type of player we're going for this January we deserve what's coming. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dinho lad Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Austin is out of contract in the summer. I think he'll be looking for premier league football when he leaves QPR. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Hmmm ... We always go back, and there were very strong rumours we bid for Rolan multiple times in the summer. Why not go back for Lacazette who is not being pursued as much as he was previously by bigger clubs it seems. Too expensive no doubt. Instead taking more risks on someone who could be boom or bust.

thorin Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 I actually forgot that Carrick was out of contract in the summer... would be a decent buy to replace one of the headless chickens running around in the middle nowadays Rolan would be a big risk considering his position is mainly ST, but he can cover all front 4 positions. Bet he wount cross anything into the box so wtf? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interpolic Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 I've never been that into Carrick as a player but I think he'd be an excellent signing in January on an 18-month contract or whatever. We need some experience/leadership. Him alongside an experienced PL centre half in this window would see us through this season IMO, it goes against our barking mad transfer policy but needs must.

thorin Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 People might say alot of weird shit about Carrick, but he will have the ability we're lacking unless you wanna blast shitloads on Xhaka and take the gambool that he will arrive, cuz he most likely wount. Who the fuck would? Carrick is a local lad atleast and would grasp the significance on wtf is happening RIGHT now. Feels weird to say/type too, that he might be the saviour this season. We lack the clear ability to pass the ball forward instead of backward in the midfield department and we lack the vision to change the speed of play. He will fix that. Experience might help in calming some down too, being somewhat vocal and finger pointing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Geordie Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 Well, if we persist with the car showroom mentality when it comes to signing players, we are indeed doomed and will deserve relegation.

triggs Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 Don't think Carrick has the legs to play in centre mid for a team like us but at least he'd be an upgrade on what we have Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
