MWARLEY2 Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 We need a very very good right back as Cash is good. Its just that we have improved in so many positions. Need to spend big on this position . Will really help us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We won't be signing 'someone like Buendia'. We can't have any more loans so it would have to be a permanent, and Actual Buendia will be back in two or three months I assume. Unless there's someone somewhere so desperate they'll sign a contract just to the end of the season, that won't be happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbcuk Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 Amar Dedić From Salzburg looks a bloody good right back, but nearly every top club and Chelsea are rumoured to be after him, Roma offered £21.5million last summer for him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 I wonder how much we can reasonably spend in the coming window? Unlike Chelsea, we will have to keep a weary eye on that FFP thing. Two or three players would give us a squad that could better handle suspensions, injuries and the weight of fixtures that we face in the second half of the season. It seems Lenglet will have another option, if he leaves that would enable us to bring in another loan, I assume and who wouldn't want to join us, when they are shown the league table?

If FFP doesn't allow us any signing, as a most demand and expensive type of players are creative No.10, maybe we take back Coultino for half a season and use rotate him with Tielenman, as Coultino won't be fit to play full many games. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaVilla Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 (edited) a RB (a permanent, quality RB). a striker (loan in if needed - Duran out on loan) Anything left in the kitty, a creative no.10 (again, a loan would be ok....). anything left at the bottom of the barrel, a DM (assuming Donk leaves).

I think we might need to sell to buy. We definitely need CL football or we might have to sell a big hitter or two as we don’t generate enough revenue.

Digavilla Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 5 hours ago, TheAuthority said: Coutinho is done. His legs have gone Agreed and everyone can see that, but if we can't spend money due to buy new shiny creative no 10, how ? Or we can sell some of current squad to free up cash to buy? Can't think of our current first 11 squad that's not needed.Also can't loan any more as quota used up. Most lower & mid table team will low block like last night, really urgently need a creative no 10, or we will continue struggle to open team up. Not sure our kids Kellyman /O Reilly is ready yet and Bhuendia is still months away. Not sure our situation with FFP but finger crossed we have room, a no 10 is really needed.

sne Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 Werner in on loan (option to buy or a cheat transfer in Jan if RB are desperate to get rid) and Duran out on loan so he gets as much football as possible would be a good option IMO. Even with his scoring woes I think Werner might help us more over the next 6 months than Duran currently will and for the long term I think Duran getting regular football is more helpful for his development than the minutes he would get here during that time. But who knows, just speculation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zatman Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 Werner is definitely not a player we need. We will have similar games to last night and he is hopeless against opponents like this as he needs space to run in with his headless chicken style 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eholm Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 (edited) Still don’t think we have replaced Grealish tbh….or rather that type of player. A player of his ilk would have made the difference last night. However, as we know these types of player cost serious money and we just don’t have the FFP room presently.

DJBOB Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 They’re not going to be reactionary and buy a player in January just to defeat the low block. We struggle against it but so do almost every other team, even Arsenal/Liverpool/City. But we still need a RB. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're still the second highest scorers in the league We need to trust the Don to find a tweak rather than always thinking we need more attacking players 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
