Been scouting Josef Martinez according to Ryder

 

Wanted him when we got Miggy. Would be great to reconnect them but not sure he would have the same impact here.

 

Not seen a lot of him but he's the type I'd be going for rather than trying to replace Rondon again.

 

Play a front 3/4 with a lot of pace, movement and technical ability that can break out and transition on their own vs. just fucking hoofing it.

Offer made for Hakan Calhanoglu apparently.

 

 

 

He's awesome in FIFA 18, so as an expert I approve of this transfer.

 

What shit happened to you twice?

Bruce found the Pardew lil bit of magic button. We're fucking doomed.

Seems the strategy in January is to target talented players that aren't necessarily having the best of times at their current clubs as loans with an option to buy.

 

Not the worst strategy I don't think. I could see us getting some really interesting players this way. If only this manager could get a clue man. Urgh.

Pick them up cheap and sell them for profit. We're desperate for a new left wing back but I'd be amazed if we got one. We'll end up sticking Atsu or Almiron there before the seasons over

Another left winger isnt he? Miggy was ok down the right the past two games but so much better on the left.

 

I wonder if the plan, such as it is, will be to drop Almiron centrally and a little deeper as the goals he's got recently have mostly come from arriving onto stuff late as opposed to skinning people on the wing or getting in behind. He's got the engine for it and defensive mindset as well. Could make a lot of sense but not sure how you'd fit that into the overall system.

Don't think Calhanoglu is quick enough to play as a winger in our system. Think he played deeper this season for Milan but that can't have gone too great I'd they're looking to offload him

Those signings are fine like. Our youngest CB is 26 with the rest being 28 and above. Some younger centre-back we can try and develop is okay.

Add to that Fernandez's contract is up in the summer, and Clark's the year after.

 

Difficult to argue that Fernandez isn't worth at least another short-term contract, although he is on reasonably big wages.

 

Clark's performances have been worth another one too, although his injury record would go against him.
