r4derby Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 I’m gonna suggest something, and it disgusts me. I think he has shown himself to be abhorrent in his early days, showing fame and money can reveal ugly characters. But... Ravel Morrison has just been released from his hundredth (give or take) club. No manager has got through to him for long. But he has respected players he has worked with in his career. A big one being Wayne. If Rooney fancied getting him here for a trial...would you be happy? As much as I think he’s been a ____ up to this point, there has to be space for rehab. Hasn’t worked yet for Ibe, whereas CKR has been a revelation.

RoyMac5 Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 "Telegraph Sport can reveal that Derby are currently under a transfer embargo after failing to pay their players on time at the end of last month..."

Tyler Durden Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 If we weren't going to realistically sign anyone before the new owners came in then isn't this a moot point anyway? As long as the players are paid before this point which seems like an never ending manyana scenario. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is proof that you can have all the talent in the world, but if your head isn't in the right place it doesn't matter. He has been given chance after chance and it hasn't worked anywhere. We should steer well clear. Patrick Rams, GboroRam and r4derby 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s just this idea in my head that he may listen to a former player who understands him (a little bit) but it seems his attitude towards training and application is (and has always been) way off JuanFloEvraTheCocu'sNesta 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubbles Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 Apparently nearly every championship club has put in an offer for Balogun from Arsenal. Hopefully we’re one of those, and hopefully the Rooney persuasion can work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just get the impression that Morrison is too far gone for that to work. I also think that in our current position we need to bringing in the types of characters that are up for a bit of a scrap and ready to contribute straight away.

Realistic transfer at moment- out, anyone we can sell or off load to reduce the out goings and help pay the wages of the staff and players that are left. Gloomy days ahead, me thinks. I agree it is looking like this to me too at the moment ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barney1991 Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 With it being January 8f there was ever a time to be in an embrago is the start as not many moves happen early in January as its a weird window and most happens in the last week. Granted it is best to not be in an embargo altogether especially in the bottom 3 but hopefully we are out of It this week and prep on with signings in the 2 and a bit weeks left. Signings can come out of nowhere and be done quickly as we have all seen in the past. Hopefully aswell with the takeover we should have some pennies to spend aswelk as the first 8 million is profit in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCFC1388 Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 Id take Ravel Morrison on a free. No doubt the lad has talent snd he could be the creative player we need. Rooney and their old ex united link could play a part? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think anyone would want to come if they have to take it in turns - would that be getting changed, playing, in the canteen or what?
