We know we made a bid for Bergwijn so it's not a case of not being interested in wingers, but we after the right one. At the end of the season Ryan Fraser and Felipe Anderson could be available. Possibly even Grealish, Buendia and Cantwell. In Europe you've also Hwang Hee Chan and if we want to get caught up in transfers that won't happen, Neves could well be sold in the summer too. I am personally clinging to the hope that we are looking for the right player instead of rushing into bad purchases, which I think is the correct way to do things. To add to that, how many of Bergwijn, Dani Olmo (more of ACM), Yannick Carrasco, Suso, Jarrod Bowen, would choose to come here, we are still behind the likes of Spurs, A Madrid and Seville in terms of pulling power, I suspected the only two we could of had a realistic chance of getting were Olmo and Bowen. I also don't think we will spend as much as people think, we are investing around 25m net spend into the squad each season, I can't see that changing much, maybe the odd spike in the season we get in Europe.

You more than likely right, but players like Yannick Carrasco, Suso,would probably still choose a half decent Spanish club over us, a bit like a Bowen would probably choose a PL team over a half decent Spanish team.

Sevilla have not performed as well in Europe, but they did have an exceptional period which I think they did pretty well to maintain. They're currently 3rd in a reasonably competitive La Liga so think that will still have a pull for players, in particular the likes of Carrasco and Suso. Any adjustment would be minimal compared to coming over here. We’re on a very good upward curve though. On Bowen, there must be something that puts clubs off considering he has not left Hull yet and only the likes of Palace and West Ham are interested. I’m surprised a club hasn’t formally gone in for him before and the sums that have been quoted. Something can’t be right medically or mentally regarding the player.

The part that says he has no future here and time to find a new Club. Does he really want to waste another 2 years of his career here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In last five games, we've still got more points than the rest of the chasing pack. I took a look at the fixtures, Wolves will be the emerging danger of any of them over the next two months. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

urban.spaceman Posted 31 January 2020 Share Posted 31 January 2020 5 hours ago, coolhandfox said: If we hit relegation form at 1pt per game, we will take 14pts, that added to our 14pts lead give us 28pts, that requires Man U or Wolves to win 9 and draw 1 out of 14 to just get level. In those 8 games we took 1.25pts per game which if we did the same in the last 14 would see us collect 17pts. In the last five games; Man U 6pts, 1.2 pts per game Wolves 4pts 0.8 pts per game Spurs 5pts. 1 pts per game LCFC 9pts 1.8pts per game Important post. This is why I'm comfortable with our recent 'drop' in form as well as the supposed lack of activity in January. This squad has done wonders for us so far this season and it would be very difficult for us to fall out of the top 4 now. We definitely need a top defender and probably a class defender too, but January is a very difficult time to make those sorts of signings, despite us having a decent track record of it. That being said, this summer, like every other summer recently, will be crucial. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guzzgog Posted 31 January 2020 Share Posted 31 January 2020 Talks are stalling...... BOWEN TO WEST HAM STALLS The Deadline Day deal for Jarrod Bowen to join West Ham has stalled – over personal terms. The Hull City attacking midfielder has been offered a 5 and a half year deal – with a £20m fee agreed between the clubs. Bowen had been asking for around £60k-a-week. His medical is continuing and there’s still a hope that a deal on wages can be agreed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is he the kind of player who will go past players on his own with pace or get into positions through link up play?

Realjimbo Posted 31 January 2020 Share Posted 31 January 2020 The fee for Bowen looks like its not the issue to me in City signing him, its one of three thing imo, either Nacho's emergence (would JB be better)? The wage Bowens demanding or BR simply doesn't fancy him. Bowen would jump at the chance to play here but it looks a dead deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
