The January New Manager Warchest Transfer Thread

[eamonn]

Our squad has plenty of fringe players and the owners want us to blood youth as much as possible. I wonder if the last few years of transfer window jamborees are over. One bona fide starter every 12 months like the top clubs do (kinda).

Thats what it should be although the new manager will want to stamp his personality on the team. So there will be a few comings and goings before next season.

Yeah, I think so.  With FFP you have a finite amount of money to spend in the summer, so it's basically a case of spreading ~£80m across however many players you want to buy.  If you're in the game of bringing in 4 or 5 players, they're going to be £20m players, so mainly fringe squad players for where we are now.  If you're wantingyour Bissouma, JWP, ESR-type signings then you're going to see 1 of those, maybe 2 if you negotiate well.

Having brought in £100m for Grealish I'd hope we're fine with FFP for a while.

If we buy then it has to be a better than we currently have in first team . We have enough benchers and youth team players ready in waiting.

Get on the march up the league and the momentum and Gerrards persona could land us a Stella player which I think is what we need.

I’m still serving my self imposed ban for my last crime against humour so you’ll be relieved to know I won’t be starting or participating in any punathons on this one Dave.

[eamonn]

Good of you to rebuild and foster relationships on here, Fred. 

[Tayls_7]

 I'd like to buy a player who can use his body parts as effectively as SJM. I'm referring to his hiney y'ken.

[algy]

We've got plenty of money in the Banks' to fund the transfer

[VILLA MOLE]

You will have them in Hoff mister if you keep on like this

[LeeB]
