Maybe this is why Pep is not rushing into a new deal He's decided to prove that he can do it with no money and shit players.

99.9999% sure that's his agent feeding a story to get his name out there and his client out of Hungary.
Think about it, we're looking to build to get into the premier league and we're headhunting a 27 year old who's never managed to play first team footy at a level as high as where we currently are, it just doesn't stack up.

Whilst we need more cover on the left side can he play centre half as we are desperate for a left side CH. or does he see Buchanan moving there? We may find out on Friday!

Saturday was more 3, 1, 4, 2 especially when in possession. So Buchanan added the left side, Dion in middle and Aiwu on the right.
I dare say this rumoured player is back up or for a more wing back style full back. Pretty sure he's a small lad so he ain't ever going to be a centre.
I would say the best way they can back Rooney is looking at a lot of players with 6 months left where we take them on pay the current salary and give out small fees and a bung if the player earns a deal and the player can be told to earn a deal too. Probably end up signing some where they will get longer but it's risky taking 5 or 6 players on and giving them long deals without proving themselves.

Spanish 4th tier, given that their 2nd tier is a lower standard than ours I'm guessing their 4th tier would barely match up with poor conference sides

Juke sniffing for a new deal, I'd be amazed if this happens and not exactly an inspiring player to coach youngsters imo

Heard the Drammeh rumour is more than just a rumour.
Have heard we want to loan James Beadle from Brighton which would make a lot of sense.
And the kick in the teeth of Stansfield is bound to happen, I assume they have a recall option if they can sell.

If Stansfield goes that just leaves Hogan and Juke. I don't think Tyler Roberts will ever play more than a few games a season. I may actually get my wish of seeing Junior Dixon play. Fitting square pegs in round holes we could play Dembele, Miyoshi and Burke further forward.

Also I don't believe he had much say in which players to bring in, he was a coach and that was it. Stanfield leaving is paper talk and has no substance to it, I hope.

I don't believe I have insulted him. It's just reality. I don't believe that he wouldn't have had any input regarding recruitment. I have nothing against the bloke, I just don’t believe he was the future under our new ownership. I also, unlike others after 1 game, haven't made up my mind regarding Rooney. The owners will one day sack him but its upto them what that day that will be and I back them 100% with that decision.

Heard the Drammeh rumour is more than just a rumour. That makes no sense to me, a 22 year old striker picked up on a free by Sevilla and spent the season playing for their 2nd string in the Spanish 4th tier where he's got 5 goals in 16 games playing every single game the right side of a front 3. Given our need for an out and out striker and the spine of the team being the most in need, this seems unlikely imo.
Have heard we want to loan James Beadle from Brighton which would make a lot of sense. Again whilst a keeper more comfortable with the ball at his feet is desirable, would we really consider playing an 19 year old keeper game after game in this division or if he's being signed as back up why would he or Citeh agree to that when he's playing at Oxford regularly, again I can't see it.
And the kick in the teeth of Stansfield is bound to happen, I assume they have a recall option if they can sell. Dunno but if they do have a recall option it wouldn't surprise me, not necessarily to sell, just to send him elsewhere as I'm not sure he's comfortable in the current set up.

Another right sided forward, why? Just don't see it. Don't get me wrong, having a good season and would fit Rooneyball imo but jut not a priority this January.
All that said I was sure we wouldn't sign Keshi as we'd already lined up enough crocks as it was nor Burke because he was turd but we signed em both so never say never.

Agree bubbs we need a quality CF who has a bit about him, can score goals and is mobile. Oh and can hold the ball up top and create, £15 million should do it. Oh err, well its a good loan then.

More than likely. I like Poku, there's a lot to like and wouldn't even rule out him playing up front one day but think that would be a big ask right now in a team in transition. Tilts has liked him for a good couple of years and nothng wrong with it if he's on our radar, just think the Summer much more likely personally.
For me a striker, deep midfielder and CB the most pressing. I know some think keeper too and I'm not arguing just think the other 3 are more pressing right now and I think we'll get all three, but that doesn't mean all or even any of them will be our long term solutions in those positions.

We need at 2 fecking strikers ffs. If this board are as good as they say i would be well fecked off if we didnt see at least 2 new signings by first week in jan. Do you know what that's like these days? We've got the fcuking U.S. Navy all over the place. You got frogmen. You got EC-2 aircraft with satellite tracking shit. You got fcuking Bell 2-09 assault choppers up our arses, man. That's no duck walk anymore, let me tell you.

Another young right side attacking midfielder. Played for Derby before leaving for Liverpool. Played against us and scored. From Burton area. I assume a loan? Looks like a prospect but not an out and out striker

Yep, yet again another player linked that doesn't cover ANY of our positions in most pressing need, Yoda says the bullshit is strong in this one.
