January 2016 - Transfer Rumours, Speculation & Suggestions

[auntiesledd]

I think this board has already waived the white flag hence the introduction of Hollis who looks as if he's been bought in to carry on his accountcy role albeit with the title of Chairman.

Leicester had 19 points with ten games to go last year. We had 22 points last year with 11 games remaining. The board are crazy to have surrendered so early. Garde has got 7 results since had came in. At least one of those draws would have been a win if we had a finisher. The margins are so tight, two wins and we would have some momentum and more belief.

I am so disappointed, but not surprised, by what's going on.  I thought our premier league status was precious to us. We are not down yet.

It's becoming ever-clearer to me that Lerner has essentially accepted the club's fate now & decided against spending any more money on the squad. His prior sporting 'gambles' have clearly been disastrous to his personal finances & credibility, so perhaps the inevitable forthcoming heavy devaluation of a relegated Aston Villa is more acceptable to him if he doesn't involve himself in further player investment? Like you, IV, I'll be really disappointed to find the towel has been chucked now, but I can't say it'll come as any surprise. You never know, Gestede  might wake up Saturday morning & suddenly become a carbon copy of Lois Suárez...

I don't think the winter transfer window should last a month, at least 3 weeks of it are pointless.

Just what we need. A 6' vampire.

I'd take that, although he'd only be any good once it gets dark. It'd be an improvement anyway.

I'd rather we spent money in the summer, I don't mean to be a misery arse, but I don't see any way out of being relegated. I can't see the point in spending money now. Sorry
