Asensio confirmed. 12 years ago our January signings were Yacouba Sylla and Simon Dawkins. Now it's Rashford, Asensio, Malen, a couple of promising younsters and maybe more. Still no CB as of yet. Chelsea don't want to sell Disasi to us and would rather he went to bitter rivals Tottenham. Not heard any other names so it looks like Disasi or (more likely) bust. A few loans have gone out too, including Nedeljkovic to RB Leipzig on a loan to buy which is a bit odd as he looked like a good prospect but I guess Emery doesn't fancy him. Emery has been trying to sign Joao Felix since the day he arrived but to no avail. He would rather hop around various trendy European cities like Barcelona, Madrid, London and Milan than come and live in Birmingham. Weirdo.
Is Doak back with us? I thought it was a season long deal? Ah, just checked, he is still there, its perm bids they arent entertaining.
Alex Palmer signed from West Brom. 1 of the 3 Championship goalkeepers who I saw last season that I thought were really impressive (Cooper, now at Sheffield United, and Max O'Leary at Bristol City being the other two) That's our number 1 sorted for next season and Muric can start looking for his next victims.
£5m to loan that piece of shit for half a season is an absolute disgrace lol, loan fees are getting out on hand! Tzimas? Steady on mate! Not even his mother is saying that.
The guy's got 302 appearances (I imagine at least a third as sub) at 4 huge clubs. Not even a hundred goals. Definition of a luxury player
Tbf Bayern have a lot of talented attackers, Kane, Coman, Gnabry (who could have seen that meteoric rise), Sane and Muller are all very strong attacking options and I think Tel was always going to struggle to get minutes ahead of those lads.
It’s funny to see a neutral so positive about our transfer dealings when our fanbase is in a full on meltdown currently (obviously not helped by Saturday) Would have preferred the Greek chap to be here now as we’re very light upfront, but the club have built up a lot of trust so I’ll try not to complain too much.
I reckon you pick it up again for the cup game against Chelsea this Sat ,sometimes a serious humbling pays dividends in the long run for when players get too complacent. We all get a drumming from time to time and the beauts with the loudest pipes love a meltdown. I think in securing the signature of one of Europe's brightest and most coveted young players just proves Brighton are still a team that doesn't let the grass grow under their feet.
And, apart from Kane, the best of the lot Musiala. Tel's problem is not his work rate, he runs and tries and gives it all. He just isn't a goal scorer, at least not with us.
All Liverpool's outgoings in this window ,apparently Spurs still working on trying to get Luca Furnell-Gill from our academy over the line. Marcelo Pitaluga - Permanent to Fluminense. Tom Hill - Permanent to Harrogate. Calvin Ramsay - Loan to Kilmarnock. Stefan Bajcetic - Loan to Las Palmas. Dominic Corness - Loan to Gillingham. Kaide Gordon - Loan to Portsmouth. Jayden Danns - Loan to Sunderland.
Yup, definitely looks like something they want to hold up to the fans with a "but looks what we tried to do!". Surprised they really think fans are that stupid to fall for that shit.
