I’m just saying you cant deny someone from doing their job just because they’ve been accused of something, if he’s guilty then he will go to prison. I wouldn’t sign him personally on the basis that he could be found guilty. You said he shouldn’t be playing, however.

A centre half and a striker btw how’s lejeune been doing this season? I often imagine how better off we’d be if we kept him, mbabu & Toney Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe clubs just don’t want the distraction of taking offers to let their players leave throughout the start of the season, dunno. Anyway, of course they need to be as quick as possible. But I don’t think Trippier in and 2 CBs close is that bad at this stage. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was uproar when Adam Johnson was playing though, considering the controversy it brings to the club I wouldn't risk it at all.

Guest reefatoon Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 Again, judging yesterdays performance, if we don’t upgrade that central midfield position we will be royally fucked for the rest of the season, no matter who we bring in for the other positions. It’s where we lose games and needs rectified this window urgently. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

triggs Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 I'd definitely take a chance on Morelos. His disciplinary record is terrible but I don't think that necessarily follows him elsewhere to such an extent. Scotland is a lot more hate filled in general in football I would say than England and he wouldn't face the same vitriol every week Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 I've said all along that we need players in every position. If they have the finance, and a good player becomes available, sign them. It doesn't matter what position they are. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was an example in yesterdays game around the 70 minute mark, where they were attacking and were a few yards outside of our box and Shelvey was standing there bent over with his hands on his hips. Now this is against a lower third division team and is unforgivable for me as their player just went by him with the ball.

Howe must know who the bad eggs are and they need to be moved out, either loans, sales (yeah right) or just paid off. It needs to be a cull. Before I was thinking, takeover, players will respond postively to new owners, new enthused crowd etc. They really haven't. Fuck em, get rid as soon as replacement found.

Menace Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 Speaks volumes that Shelvey and Ritchie was the first names Rafa wanted to bin off and they're still starting for us week on week - and they both got rewarded with new contracts also Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
