Transfer Rumour January transfer window (62 Viewers)

[Jimmy87]

Yep. One I’ve heard we’ve got a keen eye on

Good player!

I'd heard that at the start of the window he would be open to a move as he wanted more minutes. I think it's probably fair to say that question is dead in the water now. Lampard has given him a chance and he's obviously firmly in his thoughts to keep. Same with Kitching, really glad they batted away that loan approach.

100% on both fronts. They’ve both took their chances after being selected. That said, it was baffling just how little game time Simms and Kitching were getting until recently.

Allen should get a new contract unless we’re planning on signing another player and Sheaf extends his contract.

Agreed, proof is there for all to see now, they needed to be given a run. Allen has been brilliant in his role, a top professional too.
Who knows what scenario will unfold with the midfield.

Might suggest Eccles is gone before Monday night.

No way - I can’t see that happening!

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Not that he wouldn't be welcome but we need more on the right hand side beyond just MVE and Saka

Yep kinda surprised we haven’t got any RW or a RB in (not for the lack of trying tho Tbf).

 

[TomRad85]

Can say Saddle did but it’s not so much that someone hasn’t come out and said Eccles is off but more that their is no noise regarding any of the players leaving

Tbf I missed Saddle naming Grimes, which is surprising as I lurk on here all day during transfer window season.

yeah, can't see us going for a cb unless one leaves

I'd be very concerned if MVE got injured or needed resting as Burroughs really isn't the answer. It needs to be someone you'd be happy to start, not someone who can play the position on paper.

We can continue with the 5-3-2 or put one of our other attacking players out on the right if Saka weren't available, but there's not really anyone we can stick at RB. If there's only one position we add another player it has to be there I think.

I think if MvE got injured / suspended we still have enough cover for this season . We either keep a five and play Eccles or Burroughs in the rwb role , Eccles has done very well as rwb before . Or we go flat 4 with Lati slotting in at RB

Tatsu could potentially step in at RWB if he had to. Possibly Howley as well at a push?

Think Sakamoto has played the odd game there in Belgium but thought Howley was more of a CAM,or a central midfielder

 

[long way home]

Tahirovic is a top young talent and if we do get him in on a loan to buy he will be the younger version of Sheaf, Grimes and will be a linger project. I keep seeing the lad at Boro mentioned on here hs not at the same level as Tahirovic.

The lad from Oxford would be a nice pick up but if these 2 are in. Eccles, Burroughs and Howley will be out on loan or perm.

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

Signing Matt Grimes is also up there as one of the best imo.

We can’t compete with the likes of Leeds, Burnley and Sheffield Utd.

It is one of the best signings up there, yet somehow you want to play him alongside Sheaf!

Like Margot Robbie willing to go on a date with you, and you take her to McDonald's.

 

[Captain Dart]

I’m told he’s arriving on Monday from same person who told me Matondo’s deal collapsed before the media said it, Carr had left a few hours before it was announced and Tavares had gone to Burton a day before that was announced. If it doesn’t happen then apologies but I’m very confident with what I’ve been told

ITK quotient not registered, hindsight does not count, it all hangs on the Tahirovic rumour.
