Now Marv has gone down with a knee injury it's going to highlight how short we are at DM.  Still the No1 priority for me, even with his recent form.

Signing Gallagher and Bellingham would be a super start to the January window

You know it makes sense and they’ll be easy transfers to complete, if we bring them in early enough we could go for a big marquee signing later in the month

Yep file that under the same category as the suggestion we should go for Bellingham.
Only hope would be the Steven Gerrard 'pull' I suppose.
Well, that's one way of encouraging players to sign, I suppose ;)
Certainly true when Mr Gerrard pulled Nakamba off at Anfiled.

Davis could be going to Forest apparently. Good move all round if that happens I reckon.

If he was never going to make it i would really hope it was through simply not being good enough rather than blighted by injury. I hope wherever he goes (a stint north of the border Celtic / Rangers would be a good shout) he gets a chance to put a good few games together

Kieran Trippier. Would you? Should we?

In my opinion no. He's 31, and I don't think he's an overall upgrade on Cash, although his delivery is better. He'd be a very expensive (in wages) back up. Off to Newcastle anyway isn't he?

Ha!  The thought of playing for Gerrard might be appealing to young players who grew up admiring him, particularly those who play in midfield.  Might just give us an advantage we might not otherwise have if we went for the likes of Ward-Prowse or even Phillips from Leeds.

Phillips would be a massive addition to our midfield. For me as much as I like Doug, Phillips is better. However it would add a man bun to the squad. Not sure how I feel about that.

Certainly true when Mr Gerrard pulled Nakamba off at Anfiled.

OK, I'll take the bait.

Older posters may remember that when Terry Venables told Gazza he would pull him off at half time, he replied that he only got an orange at Newcastle.

That was Rodney Marsh to Alf Ramsey  (replace Newcastle with QPR)

Phillips is not that much better than luiz in my opinion. I think luiz has the potential to be better.

Phillips is a good player bit the money leeds woild ask no thanks. They would want 60m+

I thought for left back.
