The January 2015 Transfer Rumour Thread

If anyone else we sign has as much impact on the rest of the season as Sylla did in his first year they'll be worth it.

Sylla was solid in our good spell two years ago he was still learning to pass the ball.
I wonder how Jean II Makoun is doing these days.

[Malandro]

having had a bit of a browse on Man City/West Brom message boards I really hope we avoid Sinclair.
Looks to have everything in his baggage that we've been struggling to get rid of.

I'm  sure the same was said about a certain Mr Paul McGrath many years ago. At least give him a chance to turn his career  around, should he sign for us.

For every McGrath you have a hundred N'Zog or Stephen Irelands.

McGrath's quality wasn't in doubt, just his character and fitness. I have doubts about Sinclair's character and quality.

I don't see the point in taking the risk when we have so little money.

[pooligan]

I agree with you Malandro

[Dante Lavelli]

I agree with you Manlandro

Me too.  The excitement of a signing and the blind optimism that causes is - in my opinion - trumping pretty much all the evidence which is out there.
However, I'm looking forward to being wrong on this one.

[Ron Manager]

Pity we can't get Nathan Redmond. He has the right credentials and a good attitude.

[brian green]

Moot point whether there were any flaws in Paul McGrath's character.   He had a drink problem but most people regard that as an illness rather than a character defect.   We got him for peanuts because his fitness was always in doubt.

[not3bad]

Lee Chung-Yong anyone?

I am not sure how they're doubts over Sinclair's quality, he is a good player and its down to him.

Sometimes the right club provide the right fit for the player and things click.

Passed a medical and finalising a loan move till the end of the season.

[dekko]

Loan seems good to me, I just hope there isn't an obligation to buy at the end

[dave.woodhall]

I can't say I'm overly happy with the deal but maybe he's realised this is his last chance and he's finally grown up.
