The January New Manager Warchest Transfer Thread

[DC1874]

Hmmm so we failed to get the CDM we needed and even let Spuds outbid us  If anyone thinks that Arse reject or Dougie is the answer they're seriously deluded!

Ali has admitted that he is limited because of ongoing physical problems. He was massively overplayed and has never recovered.

"Longest trophy drought in 71 years"

Eh?

Seriously?

16:14 Rodrigo Bentancur [Juventus - Tottenham] £15.9m

So we have failed in finding a player to fill that CDM role .
Seems like the Penny Pinching at the start of the window has come back to haunt us and Tottenham Hotspur have taken advantage.

I'm also absolutely fuming at the Club helping out Newcastle. 

A real poor ending to what looked like a very exciting window!

Same old TEDIOUS shite, bore off.

Seriously?

I think that proves that the talk over the weekend that we'd offered £20m and they were pushing for £25m was utter bollocks.

Why do some people get their knickers in a twist on deadline day?

Being permanently angry must be so exhausting.

For us

Some were talking about Ndombele here the other day....loan to Lyon with option to buy - €65m!!!

It's been a very good window and getting a quality defensive midfielder in would have made it an excellent one. 

Doesn't look like it is going to happen now and who knows, maybe the right player wasn't available at this time.  Maybe they think that Luiz and the soon returning Nakamba can cover it until the right player becomes available in the summer.

The Targett move surprises me if we don't bring any cover in.  Then again, maybe they view Young as adequate cover until the summer and again more options are available. 

Will be interested to see how Bentacur looks at Spurs.

Interesting - and perhaps understandable from their perspective - that Manchester United have refused to allow the loan of Jesse Lingard to Newcastle.
