The People's Hero Posted 15 January 2019 Share Posted 15 January 2019 This season is a write off. I’d settle for some young players to bed in ahead of next season. Or even for the budget to be spent overhauling our youth coaching setup. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get rid of Okazaki and then give Rossi a short term deal. He's always scored goals but has had injury problems, as a backup striker he could be useful though here and there.

Fox in the North Posted 15 January 2019 Share Posted 15 January 2019 Can we not take out a loan and buy Iñaki Williams, the speed of the guy is astonishing! He’s only got a buyout clause of 80 million euros... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoustonFox Posted 15 January 2019 Share Posted 15 January 2019 Apparently Fellaini is available for loan, according the Beeb Gossip page... We need a target man... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fox_up_north Posted 16 January 2019 Share Posted 16 January 2019 Moses is apparently available on loan or cheap. Take him as a RB/WB and push Ricardo up or have them overlapping? 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Posted 16 January 2019 Share Posted 16 January 2019 You know if he’d come and I know he’s 31 Fellaini would do a real job for us. He’s played DM at Man U under Moyes But was an attacking midfielder at Everton and later on at Man U played as an attacking midfielder. I genuinely wonder if he would be a great utility player for us for the next 2-3 years but could certainly step in this season. Available for about 14 million.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The People's Hero Posted 16 January 2019 Share Posted 16 January 2019 Good shouts. I'd take both Fellaini and Moses; providing they both have desire and want the move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fellaini is unlikely. He'll end up back in Europe I reckon. But he would absolutely be a great player for us with his ability in the air if he's getting on the end of crosses from Chilly, Albrighton and others.

The People's Hero Posted 16 January 2019 Share Posted 16 January 2019 Moses I think has played everywhere on the flanks. Probably more as a wing back than a full back; but a very useful player to have around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yks Posted 16 January 2019 Share Posted 16 January 2019 Yohan Cabaye is now a free agent. Could help replacing Iborra/Silva (?) as a cheap short-term solution. More able going forward than Mendy and Ndidi. Made his debut at Lille under Puel and was a key player in his team for 4 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AjcW Posted 16 January 2019 Share Posted 16 January 2019 Gelson Martins is available from At Madrid. We were definitely after him before, but the whole sporting situation ruined that. They're looking to offload Kalinic as well... now I know he's not exactly a world beater but there's your plan B right there for getting on the end of crosses! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluearmyfox28 Posted 16 January 2019 Share Posted 16 January 2019 Don’t think I would mind us giving a shot to Chicharito personally. Natural finisher something we don’t really have in our strikeforce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iheanacho is actually a natural finisher (only quality he has!) but there is no point having him or Chicharito if Puel insists on a lone striker and playing a system that leaves them so isolated. We need a big no.9 who can get on the end of these numerous crosses we launch into the box when we can't break teams down in this system which Puel refuses to change/adapt.

Nacho can make quality passes in the final 3rd aswell when he gets the chance. You might scoff at this but i've seen it for us, I swear! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't scoff at Kalinic either short term, his last Prem stint was his first outside of Croatia and he's done the business everywhere since then.
