Thinking of full backs....how about the fit again James Justin at Leicester? Can play either side (I think) & looked a rising star before he got crocked :idea:

Can't suggest a LB but if we're after a winger Coventry's Sakamoto looks the real deal to me. Don't think he's been there long. Japanese international. Think they signed him from the Belgium league for around £1m in the summer

Can't imagine the European JPT is a big enough reason to put anyone off a big money move myself.

Think the Toon was his dream move. He'll displace Burn soon enough

When we were offering £40m odd for 2 or 3 players in the summer it showed the club's intent; ie oven ready Prem players. Wouldn't be at all shocked if we went for a January marquee signing. Maybe two if IT moves on. Must be a young LB out there for either the short term (on loan) or long term...

Yep, I think I was one of the people being poo-pooed ??

Such a shame we didn't go for Gyokeres from Cov in the summer. I'm no expert but do think he'd have been perfect for us. Went to Sporting Lisbon for £20m. Has scored 16 goals in 19 games & rumoured to now be on Arsenal's radar. Massive release clause

Not a difficult conundrum in my eyes. Sell ASAP. No brainer. Hasn't shown BFC enough respect. Take the dough & move on.

They could if they offloaded a few players in January? There's plenty of squad players there worth a fair bit in the market.

You can't just buy players to replace injured players. When injured players return you'd have too many players , and too many salaries :idea: MB was doing his best to spend tens of millions in the last window but it didn't come off. The other thing is we probably can't afford a 25 man squad...

Think we'll replace before we sell. I'm guessing that's why we went big for people like Bakayoko for €40m. If we get £70/80m for IT then Bakayoko's price is probably €50-60m. I think we'll land someone early January, then sell IT. He doesn't want to be here so we may as well move on ASAP

Apparently there's a clip of Palhinha in a Bayern shirt saying how proud he is to join such a great club etc......then the deal fell through when Hojberg (sp?) refused to move from Spurs to Putney ?

Wide of the mark I think. We signed him for his leadership qualities. He's been very unlucky with injuries etc & we probably progressed a lot quicker than we thought, which kind of leaves him in limbo

Wonder if we're going big (trying to, anyway) this window before Ivan's sold. With the size of Ivan's fee perhaps we'd get even less VFM in January, with clubs thinking we've got money to burn?

Agree, wouldn't surprise me. Confidence looks shot. We'd probably get him going again. Wouldn't break the bank, we could do with another forward etc etc Makes sense on several levels. Plus the flock of seagulls could be a reference to BHA ??
