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

Not sure about this Colkett, hasn't done anything anywhere and hasn't played much football in a year.

Other than that, how much do you know about him not to be sure?

Probably looked at his loans. Only played 6 times for Vitesse last season (Mason Mount by comparison was outstanding for them). This season only played once for Shrewsbury so no idea what's happened there given he was a regular in league one in 16/17.

Would imagine he's a project signing as can't see him being an immediate upgrade on what we currently have in midfield.

I wish this was true.

Not more short term loan singings, surely?

I thought we were getting away from that and "rebuilding"!?

Have we learned nothing from hindsight?

Get your youth back and comment on my Spaced reference (P.86 of thread).

Yes, to include an option to buy for talented young players if it works out e.g. Hause and if this Colkett deal is true.

Hugely different thing to just spunking massive wages for someone who goes back in six months leaving us needing to buy a replacement.

I think you're sitting on my dog.

I can't see how Colkett is 'loan to buy'? I thought his contract was up in the summer?

If he plays great he can go to any interested club with better prospects, which is quite a few at the moment.

Really can't get the point of signing Colkett. We need defensive reinforcements, especially at left back, and yet we're being linked to a midfielder who can't get a game for Shrewsbury. If he was anywhere near the quality we need there would surely be more than us and Ostersund in for him.

We could quite easily have reached an agreement for first option.

Either way, bringing in a young kid to have a look isn't the same as signing a spine of a team which is then taken away every year. Think of it as an extended trial. If it happens.

You won't believe this, but there are rumours of Stewart Downing doing the rounds at the mo.

No chance in hell of a player like that coming in

[eamonn]

Oh Gawd, the one player in recent memory we managed to fleece someone else for instead of being on the wrong end of the fleecing.
We've only got about six wingers and four goalies so Stewie and the young Bulgarian shotsopper who insta'd a pic of him and Terry at Bodymoor the other day are maybe just what we need in these stockpiling no-deal Brexit times.

Some bloke in Scotland, Aaron Tshibola or something like that. Posting a picture of a lion on his instagram

Blimey, is he being recalled too?
