    Batshuayi's loan has been cancelled and he's heading back to Chelsea. Could be good competition for Vydra?

    Not seen many reports linking us to players apart from Turkish defender & early Suarez reppets. Have we linked with anyone else? It’s been very quiet even for the Pozzos

    No news is good news. Would much rather it be quiet than 100’s of pointless stories being made up. Just means that deals are being done very quietly so we don’t get pipped by big clubs like Bournemouth.

    Although the latest one was us being in for Balotelli but he has decided to choose Marseille over us. This was reported a few days ago in a couple of French papers.

    Most of our signings over the last few seasons have been very unexpected/out of the blue; doesn't mean too much.

    I think Ighalo would work quite well in Javi’s system using a lone CF

    Not the long term answer but I’d have him back in a shot if we could figure out a 6 month loan.

    Find it bizarre that people want us to re-sign someone because they had a hot streak for us for half a season before being totally found out

    Might as well re-sign Priskin in that case, at least he'd be cheaper

    Good shout, could be the fox in the box we're looking for

    Javi's press conference today has been taken as him saying we're not signing anyone this window. Not convinced that's exactly what he said.

    Just not up to him it appears which we already know and he seemed happy with the squad but guess Javi would say that..

    Having got rid of Okaka and Zeegelaar, surely we would want to fill the vacant spaces in the 25 man squad?

    Pretty sure Javi has paid Pozzo to be head coach on a 4yr contract.

    WillisWasTheWorst Its making less grammar mistake's thats important

    Except that Priskin didn’t have a ‘hot streak’.

    Yes he did, after Rodgers took over near Xmas he scored about 10 in the following half a season, including against Chelsea and Spurs in the cups

    Got him a move to Ipswich for relatively big money at the time

    He was great at one on ones.

    But we did sell him at his peak.

    I hope we get a Pozzo rabbit out the hat soon. No centre-backs in this window will mean a long second half of the season...

    Must admit I thought he peaked with Escape from New York.

    Absence of garage centric intel of late.

    Welcome return.

    Typical Gino ‘Tightwad’ Pozzo manoeuvre.

    Welcome home iggy.
     
  28. We needed a striker 18 months ago, personally I wouldn't buy one now. Lukebakio has 11 from 17 in Germany, Deulofeu is getting fitter, more consistent and effective every week, Peneranda finally looks over his year + of injury problems and should start to progress, Chuco should be with us by the summer, + Success and Deeney. There is enough there for Gracia to get a tune out of. Iggy isn't the answer. Could be worth a punt for someone like Cardiff on a short term contract.

    Agree with this the current squad have " job done " this season, we aren't going down and keep playing the same way will gather many more points, if any of our top players leave in this window, then that's different but at the moment no need to buy, the January sales don't usually work out!

    I know we don't like to splash the cash in January but this season could be the best we've ever had bar 1982/83 and we might not get a better opportunity to finish in the European spots or win a cup. With the likely departure of Doucoure and possibly Pereyra in the summer this might be the time just to gamble slightly and get a couple of players in January. We know what we need and it might just give us a chance
