Been injured a fair bit, but when selected, seems to have not performed particularly well, and so has lost a lot of support.

I don’t think wearing the no.10 whilst doing so will have helped much.

Yeah, he's not been good, but I'm willing to cut him a pretty large break given his injuries - he's had flashes of his pre-injury self here and there.

Players in or entering their prime who are out of favour at their clubs like Kieran Tierny or Gnabry. Some youngsters who could develop into very good players like Conor Gallagher and Smith-Rowe and an old hat or two like Hummels. It took Man City a few years to attract the real top players and I think the same applies here.

Watford well in the hunt for promotion so can’t see Sarr or Pedro (regardless of injury) going anywhere in January.

 

It looks between the young Spanish RB and West Ham RB the most credible links so far for the defence. We’ve resigned Karius so GK department sorted.

 

No ideas regarding a midfielder and forward but you’d imagine Fraser out most likely and a replacement in and a midfielder to take Wood’s spot in the squad.

 

Thats what I think the plan will be.

Josh Doig could be another target. Looks the part. LB getting lots of game time in Serie A


If Scotland could figure out how to produce players in literally any other position as well as they do fullbacks, they might have a cracking team.

Watford did just sign another striker though.

Jan 30 now, so you'd have to think its now Tieleman's o'clock. He's been in the shop window for 29 days, but is now heading onto the "reduced to clear" shelf.

Every few hours, another lower price sticker will be added over the old one.

Tielemans has no incentive to go anywhere. In six months he leaves on a free and pockets the money that any suitor may have paid LC as a signing bonus.

Late move for Billing, anyone?

 

18 months left on his deal, some rumoured interest from us last January from admittedly poor sources, and Howe’s obviously signed him before.

 

Could be a Burn/Targett safe bet sort of signing, if none of our other options are available. Bournemouth have got Hamed Traoré joining tomorrow for £20M+, who’s a left-footed CM capable of playing LM/AM and more signings seemingly on the way, so they might be open to it despite him being a regular.

 

Loan with obligation to buy at around £15M would probably do it?

No thanks.
