James Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 We aren’t allowed Donny and Lingard anyway unless we work out a permanent deal for the latter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Regardless, with exception of possibly Lingard, lack of fixtures means we can revert to the age old transfer window preference of all clubs and agents to run things right to the wire.

But, because the clubs we're trying to buy from don't really want to sell / won't sell without replacements, our position gets weaker every day closer to the end of the window.

SUPERTOON Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 The way every player we have been interested in has come out in the media, I’d be shocked now if we sign a DM. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wykikitoon Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 TBH I would rather have a decent box to box mid than a DM. I though second half v Leeds we looked decent in mid. Shelvey bossed it. But it would have been a different result IMO if Philips had been playing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkyMark Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Think I’m going try to ignore the transfer stuff until 1st Feb. It’s unclear to me what is going on - can’t tell if the goalposts are being moved, and if they are who’s advising the board to keep moving with them. I’ve started to form an opinion on some at the club when I should wait until after the window closes to judge. I hope we get what we need - can’t say I’m confident right now.

gbandit Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Sick of hearing about agreed personal terms. Surely we’re just pissing off clubs if we’re not involving them at all until we’ve tapped up the player. Saying that Zapata is the player I’ve seen most excited about us getting this window so hopefully we can agree a fee Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
