Deano’s wishlist - the Jan transfer speculation/guaranteed nonsense thread

Sanchez was knackered on the hour mark.

I don't  know who Gate is but it is not true that Veretout, Amavi and Ayew showed no signs of quality for us.  The talent in all three was there to see as it was in Traore and Gueye.  Problem was not with the players it was the chaotic shambles the club had become.

I thought most of those players mentioned above were ok
better than what replaced them certainly no worse

Talking of players who were here before their time.
Carlos Sanchez. Looked totally lost when he was here, but, would probably be a perfect fit in a Dean Smith team

I thought Sanchez was a good player and felt that he was not helped by having to cover for the incompetence and physical weakness of Westwood. Sometimes this “playing for two” resulted in passes going astray and unfair criticism of him.

I reckon Sanchez would have been one of the best footballers on the planet has football been 7 a side and no more than 30 minutes each way.

Like most of Lambert's signings he had ability that was negated by fatal flaws.

First-Half-Sanchez was good but Second-Half-Sanchez was abysmal and costly. I've never seen a player so consistently conk out on the hour mark like he used to. It was like his batteries suddenly ran out in every single game.

blimey I know it's youtube, but feck he is quick and has got good feet too...

Pretty much the same, has loads of pace which is always a positive, from what I can find from Walsall fans apparently he's works his tits off up and down the pitch so he gets a big thumbs up from me straight away. |I wonder what the cost will be though.

Yes, you're correct, but, he was always having to compensate for others. He always seemed to last the pace for Columbia and Fiorentina.

Anyway, it's in the past now.

https://youtu.be/5Cje_s44ixw as Footy said he looks great going forward!

Fuck me, how quick is he?

[frank black]

Can he defend?

[Lastfootstamper]

Where’s the news about Rico Henry coming from? I’ve seen nothing other than Villa fans discussing it on Twitter.

If you're quick, his wiki page says he plays for us.

BOOOOOOO. He's back to Brentford.

I’m all for equal opportunities but I genuinely don’t think we should sign a player with no legs.

[cdbearsfan]

Agreed. We've already got Whelan for that role.

[Steve67]

Whelan = Davros.

Pity. Could do with a full back, although I think we need a defensive midfielder more.

[footyskillz]

Played under Dean Smith twice , first at Walsall and then signed for Brentford.
I give you Rico Henry.
Plays as a left back for Brentford.
He is a product of the Walsall academy and is a current England U20 international

I watched him on Monday night football sky 1-1 draw with WBA .

Was only ok tbh. Struggled a bit defensively as was given quite a lesson by Matty Phillips. Played around an hour

I flagged up he would totally be an option both in other games and also in this thread.

It was an obvious link in more ways than 2! and wonder how much substance it is apart from above info

[Richard E]

Sounds like we’re interested in him, but he’s not yet at Bodymoor Heath being photographed stretching the shirt.
