It's not easy signing players when you're bottom of the league and incredibly likely to get relegated. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacketspuds Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Depends what players you are trying to sign. A few unknowns such as Kalinic for GK will be ok but, given the fact that we are likely to be relegated, I would hope that we are pushing for some quality Championship with high potential for next season. Obviously/hopefully, we should be targeting more of these players in the summer but I think it would be good for us to bring in this sort of player if we can.

rodders0223 Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Foreign imports, young and hungry, free old pros. Spin the wheel. I think we should go for young and hungry this window, it's been a while. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillanousOne Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 I think we've shown some small signs that we can defend now, Okore, Lescott, Bunn seems to work and Cissokho and Debuchy if he signs or Bacuna should do a job. but we still don't look like scoring more than one goal a game, we need centre forwards if we are to have any chance of at least going down with some kind of form/effort.

We need a young and hungry player with Premier League experience who isn't lightweight but can shake things up in the squad. Someone who does it for the love of the game rather than a fat salary and can help the younger lads while providing the goals needed to stay up. Someone who can go again every game and give his all for Aston Villa as it will be his responsibility. We are a big club, after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Anything new on the (very vague) Toulalan rumor? Would be a massive upgrade on Westwood and a calming force to our midfield in a "Pirlo role" maybe. Hard to see him leave Monaco for Birmingham thou...

dn1982 Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 West Ham linked with Sturridge. I know he's hardly fit but if Klopp doesn't like his attitude maybe the pull of his boyhood club and best mate being here could tempt him. Even if he was fit for half the games he'd end up our top scorer!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This strikes me as a typical porno dwarf tactic of bidding for players you have no intention of purchasing. Edited January 20, 2016 by av1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dn1982 Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Can anyone clarify how many domestic and international loans we can have? Remy and Debuchy on loan added to Kalinic on a perm would be a great start. Would that be our domestic ones done? What's the rules for foreign ones? It seems we are creating a lot of room in the 25!!

You may be onto something there I thought it was a bit strange that Garde came out with the Remy thing at the time. He is not stupid, he must have sounded something out first. Maybe Chelsea said that it maybe possible so long as they get there additional signings in the window. Hiddink got annoyed cuz there was no guarantee of this. The supporters would also have been annoyed if Hiddink had said yes Remy may go on loan, when they hadn't signed anyone yet. Just speculating (wishful thinking) of course.

deeps Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Remy off to Russia apparently. I cannot see him coming here, even if we weren't so far a drift. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he wants to be anywhere near the euros squad for France, playing in England and doing well would certainly help. Going to Russia where Rondon dominated won't really prove much.

El-Reacho Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Toulalan would be an interesting one - similar to Remy signing Malbranque for Lyon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duck Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 I've a very bad feeling for this window. Just over ten days to go and we're still none the wiser what's happening. Half expected at least one in by now. Can't see anyone that we need who would join us if another team came calling at this stage. The fact that Swansea are poaching signings says it all really. All of the teams competing for survival have completed some of their business ages ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think Didier Deschamps would give two **** if Remy scored 50 goals for us between now and the summer tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

France's striking options aren't that amazing right now. Benzema is out of the national team picture I believe, Griezmann is doing fantastically, Lacazette is doing okay, then it's really a toss up between Giroud, Martial, and Remy.
