Genuinely interested in what he's actually done that's beyond average! Great engine, incredibly positive and always looks to make things happen. He's also happy to put in a shift put himself about. He probably needs to curb the putting himself about as he picks up a lot of cards By no means is he the finished product, but he's 22 and has plenty of potential to be a real asset in this league. I'd be comfortable with 15-20 plus add ons. 40 plus add ons is ridiculous though haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post moore_94 Posted 31 January 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 31 January 2023 Souttar, Kristiansen, and Tete for £30m is great business and a great window We do still need that versatile attacker to make it a brilliant window though, if it isn’t Harrison (which is looking less and less likely) then hopefully we have been keeping an eye on someone else 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The right winger if he performs to a decent standard most of the time could be big for us. Upgrade on Left back & Ricky back within a month. Central defensive competition. 17th finish and an FA Cup win, what more can you want!!! Well maybe 11th? All 24 and under, so some energy and fire. Ricky back for 2 games and then out injured for the rest of the season more like. I never understood the point of giving him a contract extension when he is injured all the time. A complete waste of money that was. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Ric Flair Posted 31 January 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 31 January 2023 Pretty disappointing that once again the likes of Perez, Praet, Vestergaard and Soyuncu will be here for the remainder of the season and either used and offer us nothing (Perez and Praet), not used who could offer us something (Soyuncu) or that revolting we pretend they don't even exist (Vestergaard and Bertrand if he regains hit fitness) Barely any academy players going out on loan again either as it stands, hopefully Huth reads the club the riot act. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DezFox Posted 31 January 2023 Share Posted 31 January 2023 (edited) Surely we will be shifting out some players, surely a centre back must be leaving on loan at least? Edited 31 January 2023 by DezFox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UHDrive Posted 31 January 2023 Share Posted 31 January 2023 I'm beginning to wonder whether Loftus-cheek might be a good loan option if we don't get an attacking midfielder. He's a utility player but he can play all over the front line if required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Harrison doesn't happen we may not have time to pull off another permanent deal and this kind of loan could work for all. Mind, I was talking to a MU ST yesterday who said 'you can have him'. Behind Garnacho, Pellistri, Sancho in the pecking order. He said the same about slab head too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its more a present to say sorry your career is fùcked but heres a five year deal so you can still live in luxury despite being injured all the time. Pre injury Ricardo would have been at Real Madrid by now, bet he couldnt believe his luck when they offered him that contract Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DezFox Posted 31 January 2023 Share Posted 31 January 2023 By our standards it been a fantastic window. However, looking at the bigger picture it’s been ok not great imo. I really think we are one attacking player short and also in a position where we will have to replace 2/3 key positions in the summer. Barnes will still be on the left with zero competition at all and we are still a James Maddison injury from relegation. Jack Harrison would have been ok, not sure he is the one though. Maybe should have spent the time approaching someone who actually wanted to come? If we brought in one more player like Scott from Bristol (6 months to bed in) I would be over the moon. Doesn’t seem like we will though. So overall I think a lot better than usual but not completely game changing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if we could continue with KDH, Tielemans, Ndidi etc. in central midfield and then put Maddison out *nominally* on the left. I know it hasn't worked that well before but I think he'd actually operate more centrally anyway in the way he has from the right for us. Plus Kristiansen looks like a beast so he can hold the width. That way we can actually give Barnes a bit of a rest from time to time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
