January transfers, wish list, available etc.

Good shout. Should be our first choice - unthinkable 6 months ago,but surely 'getable' for about £20M?

 

There is no way Liverpool would take a £12m hit on a player in six months, Jan is the period where cubs get ripped off not good deals.  He's also supposed to be on 140k a week so would need a sweetener to come to a club of our level.

Klopp has decided Benteke isn't part of his long term plans, I think they would accept 25 million. Why don't we spend it, we have it and we've nothing to lose.


A lot of well respected people think Dwight Gayle has the potential to be a 20+ goals a season man in the right system. He's rapid and busy. Would suit us.

 

Darragh MacAnthony rates him. That's about it.

Those wages could well be a problem, if true! But I'd be surprised if Benteke is still at Liverpool when the window closes. They'll have to take a haircut of some kind. Why shouldn't we have a dib?

There always Dzeko as plan B...!

Benteke, Dzeko, Remy..... It's NOT gonna happen people. Wages.

 

Surely we paid huge wages to Cambiasso.

Cambiasso was 34. Probably on 45k a week. Benteke is on 140k a week. It'd be madness to walk away from that kind of deal

Yes but at the same time he'd stand a better chance of playing champions league football compared to Liverpool next season.

Regarding Benteke, I feel the way Liverpool are trying to play, press high all over the pitch and break with pace, Benteke doesn't fit into that system.

Likewise if he came here he wouldn't fit into our system/style.

At Villa they played to his strengths long ball into the box/crosses.

We would have to adapt our style of play to get the best out of him which we don't want to do.

Three options take your pick

Embolo. Young hungry loads and loads of potenional and plays in a few roles including number 10. But highley sort after

Aboubakar. Beast strong fairly quick consistent goal scorer. Would cost a lot. 15 million plus easy

Luis Adriano scores goals at all levels can play 9 or 10 role. Cost 25 million plus.

Remy looked woeful today. Nothing he showed suggested he'd fit into our group. These things matter. There's a spirit in our club which helps bring the best out of everyone...the kind of spirit you come across once in a lifetime. Dany Drinkwater summed it up when he said the team would "run their socks off no matter who the manager was." In other words it's the bottom line expected by and from everyone - 100% effort whatever and a helping hand for anyone who needs it. The last thing you want is that attitude diluted. .

Hes scored 3 league goals this season! Also AC accepted an offer of 14mil euros apparently from a chinese club before talks broke down

Football manager let me down. Got 17 in 14 for Chelsea who paid £28m for him. # a gutted fool.
