To play the Sanchez role ?

Just the sort of player we need in there. If I recall correctly we were heavily linked with him in one of the earlier O'Neill summers.

I think you're right Dave.
This could be useful for both this season and if we drop down a division. Good experienced player in good shape.  I suppose Garde has to consider players for both outcomes.

Yep.  I think it is time to move on from Sanchez and Westwood.

Toulalan would be a great signing. Been consistent for years now, he'd instantly improve us.

[CJ]

Meaning Evil says we're also looking at a Belgian striker (another 'The Beast'!) - Laurent Depoitre

[SoccerHQ]

Just to clarify Adam Bogdan was a serious suggestion?

[sickbeggar]

I think Chelsea will sign a striker in January. If they do i'd ask for Remy on loan with a view to buy if we stay up. Swansea have asked about him, so should we.

His role would simply be to make Guzan look like Schmeichal (Snr) in his prime.

I'd be looking at Remy too. We are in a shit position for obtaining films but he might be open to a loan move.

Yep. Bugger all to lose and his goals could keep us up especially if he linked up well with ayew etc. Won't solve the other problems in defence/midfield, but a 1m loan fee which Swansea have offered seems okay in the context of staying in the premiership and allows us to spend what little real money we hopefully have elsewhere

[pauliewalnuts]

Whoever we sign, I really hope we're talking to them / their clubs / their agents already and just need to send the money via PayPal in the first days of January, as we need help as quickly as we can possibly get it.

[Bad English]

Randy will probably use Western Union.

[Whiney MacWhineface]

Randy will probably use Western Union.

More likely Pony Express.

Garde worked with Remy, Toulalan and the returning Cissokho at Lyon, so would not be surprised if we are in for him.

I am making the assumption that Garde will have got to know Remy in the youth/ reserve setup

Would be a great move for us. Offer him a coaching spot, and a solid gold Bentley.

I'm really hoping Garde can pull a few rabbits out of the hat in January.
