oomarkwright Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 So, be interesting who we can offload then with players that won't have featured and where Cocu can see us strengthening. Will see more of his philosophy by then and chance to imprint his style. Big 4 months for players on the fringe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't it be great if we could go and get a galactico - someone way above the level of the Championship, who's won everything there is..... I don't know - Wayne Rooney? - how mad would that be? ?

Dimmu Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 I always say that there's no shame being fast... but have to say to this is too rapid even for me. Loan window for other leagues are still open, let see who goes out on loan first. Martin, Anya, Thorne, Lowe, youngsters? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He arguably played decent in pre season and if he carries on working hard then who knows what could happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oomarkwright Posted October 5, 2019 Author Share Posted October 5, 2019 Jordan Rhodes anybody in Jan? Loan till end of season. Frozen out at Weds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcfcfan1 Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 No one No more panic signings, we will probably be at least 10 pts from top 6 but easily clear from relegation Identify targets and work in background for summer deals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the record though, I tend to agree wth you, it wouldn't be such a bad thing unless we urgently need to cover injuries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe room for a decent keeper though..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a good poacher, but he offers absolutely nothing else. I don't think he's as good as any of our current three strikers and would rather see Whittaker given a go instead of an expensive (in terms of wages) loan.

BramcoteRam84 Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 Only make signings if they will genuinely improve us and make sense for the future. Midfield has to be priority. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with the fact he isn’t better than the 3 we have. Marriott is a better version of what Rhodes is now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sorry, but if we’re gonna transition, at some point we’re gonna have to do the transfers that are required. Now I get that January ain’t an easy window so I’m not expected everything fixed in a month, but we can get started with a few deals. May need some short term signings anyway with the number of injuries we’ve had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Transition is such a hackneyed phrase someone needs to tell the club that for transition to be valid we need to get rid of poor players and replace them with good ones an exercise we have palpably failed on for the past number of seasons.

RiddingsRam Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 I'd probably look at signify a centre back , permanently , no loan . Bielik will be a midfielder he's not a centre half , he can play there but he doesn't excel there . Keogh as sad as it is has probably played his last game for us Davies isn't getting any younger Clarke's on loan and so far I'm undecided Wisdom , well don't ever think he will be first choice Buchanan , maybe but think he's a full back in all honesty , seen him play both and he looks better at full back Max Hunt , still some way off . That's why I think it's paramount we sign a youngish centre half who we can build around at the back . Personally like Joe Rodon from Swansea . Imagine that's unlikely .

enachops Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 Reckon we’ll go in for Van Ginkel from Chelsea if he has been in full training for a couple of months. Cocu said recently he respects him and is in contact with him still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperDerbySuperRams Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 The fact we have Wayne Rooney coming in still blows my mind. If we’re in the top half then and he hits the ground running, then who knows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sean Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 Apparently Spurs want to end Jack Clarke's loan back at Leeds and send him elsewhere in January. Would love him to come here for the rest of the season! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
