Popular Post markavfc40 Posted January 23, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted January 23, 2015 Unlike the previous two January transfer windows under Lambert I have to say in this one I am not too fussed if we do sign anymore. The current squad is comfortably good enough to stay up and if we fail to do so it won't be because we didn't bring in anymore players, aside from Gil, this window. It is long past the time the manager started to do what he has failed to do pretty much all season and get the best out of the squad of players he has at his disposal. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobzy Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Pretty desperate in all honesty Sad states of affairs when likes of Palace can out spend us. Gil will help but if other teams near us improve which looks like they will , we are going to be in big trouble. Here's why the likes of Leicester and Palace can outspend us: Their core when promoted was Championship players, on Championship wages, bought for Championship fees. They survived in the Championship with their income from that. They suddently come into the Premier League and they've got all this TV money coming into their coffers. That money is all profit that can be spent. We, on the other hand, have big wages, and Premier League associated expenses. We have no wiggle room. They have lots and lots of wiggle room But net spend!!!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BleedClaretAndBlue Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Shame no more deals, definitely needed 1 or 2 more. Didnt Fox say Randy is as dedicated as ever? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacketspuds Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Shame no more deals, definitely needed 1 or 2 more. Didnt Fox say Randy is as dedicated as ever? Lerner hasn't been dedicated for 4 years. Sooner he **** off the better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GENTLEMAN Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Shame no more deals, definitely needed 1 or 2 more. Didnt Fox say Randy is as dedicated as ever? I suppose other clubs are also less than willing to depart with their talent for smaller fees. Still, I think it is a bit premature to say that we will not sign anybody else this window.

maqroll Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 i can't believe we couldn't even do a loan move 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacketspuds Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Chung-Yong Lee from Bolton is apparently a 1.5m target for Palace. I think he's decent and for that sort of money surely we could fit that into our budget. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrackpotForeigner Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Yeah looks like Lambert is saying take it or leave it to City and trying to force Sinclair's hand a bit, if he really wants to come he'll hand in a transfer request. Agreed. He's basically said that we're interested in Sinclair, but that a deal hasn't been struck. So either we'll make no more signings or Sinclair/City will decide to get it done anyway, depending on what they really want. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 why does it mean we wont be signing anyone else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omariqy Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Lambert said we are unlikely to sign anyone else. Our squad is good enough. We are not desperate for a player. Simply PL should be doing better with what he has. We have top 6 goalkeeper, a top 10 defence, a top 12 midfield and a top 6 striker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Derryvillan Posted January 23, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted January 23, 2015 A few tweets seem to think that the Spanish media are saying we've bid for Alberto Bueno, never heard of him (not that that means anything) but apparently he's a striker. That's the Kinder speculation I like. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Designer1 Posted January 23, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted January 23, 2015 It is long past the time the manager started to do what he has failed to do pretty much all season and get the best out of the squad of players he has at his disposal. Which has been my main criticism of him for a while now. He should be doing better with what he has. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delphinho123 Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 If we play the best XI every week in their correct positions, we will stay up. No need to sign players for the sake of it. The manager will take the club down, not the lack of intent in this window. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
