Somebody say something positive but truthful about the approaching January transfer window. :(

We won’t be disappointed like we have been in previous windows when we inevitably fail to invest because even the most optimistic among us know the craic by now

To be as positive as I can!

We will get at least 2 new players in the January window but...…….they will be bargain-basement buys or loans that fit Mr. Ashley's economic plans for his growing business empire.

That being said, and if true, I expect Mr. Benitez will leave when his current contract ends unless...………………………….

I’ll be as honest as I can be, we won’t sign anyone because of this ‘takeover’ some might say the whole point of the ‘takeover’ Is an excuse to not sign anyone

Stolen from the comments section of The Mag

Jan 1st:
Rafa: Lee, any idea what my budget is yet?
Charnley: Sorry Rafa, ring me in three days.

Jan 4th:
Rafa: Hey Lee, any update on my budget, I need to start looking at players?
Charnley: Er, I'm Skyping Mike after the Blackburn game. Call me on Monday.

Jan 7th:
Rafa: Hi Lee, what did Mike say last week?
Charnley: He said that America is great and the weather is canny. Call me next Monday.

Jan 14th:
Rafa: Lee, this is urgent. We're halfway through the window and I don't know my budget. I need to look at getting a couple of deals done.
Charnley: Sorry, I'm watching Looney Tunes on a dvd Mike got me for Xmas. Call me a week Friday and I'll have you're answer.

Jan 25th:
Rafa: Right Lee, I've identified two players, I just need to know the budget.
Charnley: Er, Mike said 'No money' I'm afraid.

Repeat every January transfer window . .

The mighty bournemouth have shelled out 20 million for Solanke despite him having scored 1 goal in the premier league and they've got Clyne on loan til the end of the season too.

 

but we can't be expected to compete with them on a financial level obviously.

I think I said this before, but Michael Owen came out a few months back and said he only signed for NUFC because no one else wanted him, and it was touch and go whether he came.

 

If he hadnt come, our transfer record would still be Shearer in 1996 :lol:

Is it sad that I’d really rather that it was Shearer than him

Grade A money grabbing cunt, zero loyalty and zero charisma.

Send kenedy back - get anyone who can go past a man and pass a ball.

 

Sell Joselu for 50p - get him off the wage bill and sign anyone fast who can score maybe 3 goals - will be better. 

 

Sell Hayden and buy a midfielder from the championship or abroad who can break up play and actually pass to one of our forwards.

Send kenedy back and get Drinkwater on loan for the rest of the season.

 

Sell Joselu for 50p and offer Super Mario a pay per play deal, using that 50p for his transfer fee. 

 

Keep Hayden as he's better than Shelvey atm but buy a wide midfielder from abroad, Germany preferably, who can beat players and cross accurately 99% of the time.

Hayden is dogshit.  I don't have a clue what role he thinks he's doing but I'm certain he's not doing it.  He also looks very disinterested now which is a shame because before Rafa wouldn't let him leave (which is purely down to our total lack of a squad) he came accross as a good kid.

Central midfield is interesting this month....

 

Ki @ Asian cup

 

Shelvey off to Barca.....to see a specialist about his thigh

 

Diame injured 

 

Hayden wants to get away this month

 

So it’s almost certainly a recall for a Mr J Colback esq, formerly of this parish :D
