January Transfer Window

[villan from luton]

I agree with you newby, but not in the style we are playing, and that begs the question why was he signed?

[villan from luton]

I think there is a real player in Hogan, but I suspect Agnews tactics are the same as before and things won't change until the manager recognises he is with a big club now and we don't have to do hoof ball with the players he has bought, most of them anyway

[eamonn]

It is a bit horrid how Risso constantly bullies Hogan but it would be great if Scott could stand up to him, starting with a hat-trick today.

[SoccerHQ]

I'd say Hogan is the ideal forward for somebody like Grealish. Trouble is, how many times has Jack played in the hole (no, not that hole Mick).

People keep saying this but Grealish played behind Hogan v SHA end of last season and we didn't have a shot for 70 minutes.

One difference could be the form Adomah is in. He would get some crosses in for Hogan at least and also AEM.

[mr underhill]

Both were on the pitch together yesterday and both looked like what they are. Whenever I see Grealish play he only has one  weapon in his arsenal - try and get a penalty. But at least that's one more than Hogan.

[Ads]

Grealish played well and looked dangerous. Hogan and Gabby didn't get a zip of service ad the midfield two were deep and entirely pedestrian.

[Risso]

It is a bit horrid how Risso constantly bullies Hogan but it would be great if Scott could stand up to him, starting with a hat-trick today.

I reckon I could mark him out of a game. He got one of the mythical through balls from Grealish yesterday, and did nothing with it. Just gave it away cheaply. Poor.

Requirements for January - pace pace and more pace

Hopefully Green back will supply some of that

Davis needs to be on the subs bench for now so a similar centre forward but McGrath knows who

Terry back will allow the midfield to push up much further - Hourihane is wasted in front of the back four

[VinnieChase84]

Ulloa and Musa from Leicester please
A Centre half - Rob Holding loan

[mr underhill]

good choices - Ulloa in for NYD against Bristol would be good.

[Steve67]

Nothing seems to happen early in the January window, several more games get played. Quick action would be useful wouldn’t it?

Abel Hernandez is back in training at Hull ,after a long injury lay-off, let the speculation begin ( if it already hasŽnt ).
Fit and ready, IŽd take him in an instant , fit & ready, that is !.
DidŽnt we offer about 20 mil for him  some time back ?, Hull should have bitten our hand / arm , off !.....Godzvilla!

The way I remember it, Hull did bite our arm off. Hernandez messed us about with his wage demands, basically moved the goalposts when we thought we were getting close to an agreement. Dr Tony has stated in the past that we won't be going back in for him in the future.

An old English type centre forward - Jordan Rhodes

Have we got a style of playing then? Can't say I've noticed since day one of his arrival...
