I'd imagine the same shithouse tactics from any club we are dealing with tbh, can't imagine championship being much better.

 

Who'd have thought we would still be looking to take advantage of nearly out of contract and release clause players even with untold riches.

 

The fact we are relegation threatened is an unfortunate added hindrance.

Let's not assume it's entirely impossible to bring in players in January. We bought six players January 2013. We need options, just bodies in, someone to take a chance on. Even if they aren't walking straight into the XI we need competition and cover for nearly all positions.

It's the pattern that's worrying, NUFC want the player, the player wants to come, club moving goal posts/doesn't want to sell. The whole thing stinks.

Yes, how dare Burnley not sell their best defender to us and all but guarantee their own relegation.

Are we really about to sign Bruno from Lyon. A bid for a player is actually accepted. What a signing at that. Can we just offer Lyon loads of money for a few more of there players.

 

Yes. About as much as we'd agreed deals to sign Carlos and Lingard on Monday evening with agents flying out to seal the deals.

Indeed. Paqueta and Aouar wouldn’t go astray …

Remember both Di Marzio and Romano tweeting he was about to sign for us just at the same time we signed Jamal Lewis, so clearly a player we have kept an eye on for a long time.

Same. I just wish they did something super exciting. There is a lot of pragmatism, which makes sense, but would love just one Ben Arfa type signing - or investment in loads of exciting youth. That would rock

 

Ignore. I take this back.

 

Im back in baby

It’s really hard because clubs will hold us ransom right down to deadline day to maximise the price - and at the same time we have to consider FFP - spend to much on ‘just get by’ players and maybe even get relegated anyway is quite damaging to this regard.
