January Transfer Thread: Speculation, Lies, Absolute Cr*p and Bosman Rumours

[Clampy]

If lambert does not spend the cash by 11 pm tomorrow he should be fired at 11-01 pm- preferably from a cannon!

Assuming there is money to spend.

I think there must be, he's already said that we've missed out on one or two players.

[ozzjim]

Dunne has kicked his last ball for us.

A pressing mid and a centre back are musts.

[David_Nab]

If we don't buy anyone we will deservedly finish bottom.

ONLY team near bottom to do fuck all ,actually worse we let 2 players go !!

Lerner must be completely broke or chucked his toys out of pram because this business model is doomed to fail

[fbriai]

I don't believe SSN; and I don't believe anything lambert might say to SSN. It might be true but I'm not taking their jumped-up clown circus word for it.

Amen to that.

[Loxton01]

I believe there are small funds available once Hutton and Warnock are off the wage bill. Circa 5-10m I just think PL had a list and has lost out and isnt prepared to be flexible much like his approach and tactics

I am seriously beginning to dislike the man ......his character and persona.......... he is a stubborn git who needs to wake up!!! He is a bad loser and I can imagine him very unapproachable after games saying very little to inspire the troops. I think he thinks he is better than he is.

Wake up Lambert grow some balls and get some players in.

Ive not seen or heard of lambert giving any interviews  today , and last night he said nothing happening at the moment - certainly never said no signings will be made .

He has said he wont buy just for the sake of it , or pay over the odds - risky strategy which could backfire in relegation.

[PaulWinch again]

If we don't sign anyone we deserve to go down.

Disagree about Dunne, according to many reports he was considering throwing him into yesterday's game ahead of schedule. He rates him and I believe will play him on his return.

The midfielder situation is absolutely obvious though. It's a ludicrous situation to have Barry Bannan as one of your main lines of defence, it's barking. Bannan would be fine further forward where he could make a nuisance of himself and help stop counter-attacks from happening quickly, but there's no way in hell he's winning that ball on halfway with naught but defenders behind him.

He has since suffered an injury setback yesterday morning.

Really? Ah fuckity balls.

[Villafirst]

Obviously Lambert banked on Dunne being fit by the end of the transfer window so as to prevent recruiting another centre-back. Surely as this ''gamble'' has now back-fired there must be a Plan B or other contingency plan? Or are we gonna be "fine"?

[VillaAlways]

Reported yesterday that Dunne has had a setback. Don't think he was ever fit to be honest

Not sure if its serious but lambert said dunne had felt a reaction yesterday .

[damon loves JT]

Could be as simple as failing a fitness test for yesterday's game.

[PaulWinch again]

Yep he has so the masterplan of Dunne saving us is out of the window.
