The January 2022 Transfer Window Thread

[Cinio Dydd Sul]

Fully expecting to be underwhelmed tomorrow

My expectations are low.

But what exactly are people expecting? All this doom and gloom! If we'd have won/drawn v Hull the mood on this board would have been more positive/hopeful/forgiving maybe! If we get a LWB and a No10/striker and get Pato integrated back in the side I'd be happy with that. These 3 signings and on paper we'd have a decent enough squad to embed Russ' playing style ready for another busy window in the summer and a better crack at things next season. Its a jigsaw, building one piece at a time. Some of this board moan that 'its all square pegs in round holes' then moan when one by one these 'square pegs' are transferred or loaned out. We aren't going up, we aren't going down, ride it through this season and see where we are in the summer. IMO Russ will need 2 more windows to get the squad right, lets back him and 'enjoy' the journey.

Maybe effective, efficient winning football as a prerequisite. Which has been our baseline, the previous two terms.

Why on earth are some folk here so accepting of bland, pedestrian mediocrity ?

'Enjoy' this journey, where Martin said yonks ago he was sorting our defence before progressing to sorting our attack. And our defence is now the worst it has been, and our achilles heel by some margin. Wtf is enjoyable about losing and regressing ?

2 more windows ?

- many folk here are too gullible, too fickle and too easily duped to be proper fans.

Many folk on here think your a gobby little bulb, with a small penis and little backbone :lol:

If Russ is going to insist on playing the same shape, then LWB is an absolute priority today. Even if it just a loan until we can shop about in the Summer. Fingers crossed the Club does well today.

What's the situation with Bournemouth then? Just signing Keiffer Moore for £3.5m, Neco Williams expected, and that Dembele from Peterborough. How do they get away with this through FFP?

They’ve bought anyone who’s half decent at this level just to stop other teams from signing them I agree though, crazy how they’re allowed to spend so much.

They’ve also been linked to Nat Phillips, Todd Cantwell and Woodman :shock:

How many players do they need?

If he goes hopefully we actually replace him but I don’t hold much hope

Crazy to let him go, IMHO.
No Pato, No Piroe, No Party

Cardiff signing Surridge on loan

At least when we play them we know Surridge will spend most of the time on the floor.
