Leroy Fer...erm...I meant Tom Carroll...honest guv

[Louzie0]

Neither have I but if it helps, bloody Swansea and welcome Tom.

Fer failed a medical apparently.

[passport1]

Does that mean Swansea have or haven't pissed us off?

[West Derby Villan]

Fer failed a medical apparently.

How do you know that Ads?

[Dave P]

Fer failed a medical apparently.

But the lad out since October passed?

[Drummond]

Well that’s a rather underwhelming transfer window if you ask me.  Goodnight.

Correct.  Absolute shite.

Mings
Hause
Elphick
Green
Steer
Kalinic
Carroll

We've strengthened in the areas we were weak, brining in left sided defenders, goalies,  and a midfielder.

[Drummond]

Oh and given we kept Abraham, it's not bad.

For a team 10th in Division 2.

A fair point. It's easy to overlook the fact that we have a player who is arguably worth about thirty million quid playing up front for us.

[frank black]

Gutted, he was just what we needed.

[mr underhill]

really disappointed to find this didn't go through. it would have strengthened us considerably. WBA have fared much better in this window IMO.

[Ads]

I dont know, theyve signed attacking players of which we need none and they've not replaced with anybody near as good as Barnes.

I agree with this.

When I heard the news about Fer being linked yesterday, I forwarded it on to my QPR-supporting mate, who loved him when he played for them. His reply was: 'Oh dear. Well, at least he'll have John McGinn to do his running for him'. Reckons he's not been the same since his injury.

The squad is now a lot more balanced than it was at the start of January.

[Lastfootstamper]

We, on here, were victims of a rumour we started!

McKenna to Stoke for £7mill.. Leroy Fer being linked.

Then came the bombshell!

Fer details being ironed out.

Next thing you know,

Fer details being ironed out.

This happening Brian? Thought he was in France completing a move?

And now, it's aliiiiive

Alan Nixon just tweeted re Leroy Fer..... don’t understand how he would fit in ?

I still think if Brian hadn't said anything, neither would've anyone else. Including Nixon.

Plus the RB who has been loaned back to his former club.

I think the failure to sign Fer at the death (if true) has left many of us feeling underwhelmed.  Carroll doesn't seem quite as exciting.  Now that he's ghere though, he'll get his chance, as will all of the others.  Then we can make better judgements on how good the window has been.

I remember Bruce's first window looked quite excitinf - 12 months later, most of those signings weren't starting for us.

[Dazvillain]

SWANSEA jungle drums down this part of the world are suggesting that Fer never even arrived at villa
