What Sunday showed me is that whilst bringing on our second string as substitutes doesn't impede us too much, that collectively they aren't good enough.

They'll do as squad fillers but it takes us back to the way we'll improve, and that is replacing the first team and making them our squad.

Agree.  The likes of Watkins, Buendia and Bailey need to be pushed down into squad options rather than players we are relying on every week.

Might get some money back for Buendia.

He'd probably be more a Coutinho replacement who could end up in Brazil, the MLS, Saudi.

If Felix was offered to us I’m glad we turned the deal down. It appears that Chelsea are essentially borrowing the player who doesn’t get along with Simeone until the end of the season. Simeone is expected to leave Atletico. And Chelsea get to pay something in the region of £16m (loan fee and wages). Absolute madness

Simeone quite likely to rock up at Chelsea in the summer too.

Tends to do well at clubs he’s played for and has an affiliation with, next Inter boss for me.

If he gets them into the champions league, which I imagine is their thinking, then he's more than paid for himself.

Some talk of Mattéo Guendouzi. Now I would like that. Reunite him with Kamara and send Sanson back in part exchange.

Romano is saying we're one of the clubs interested in buying Weston McKennie from Juve, which might be a bit of a fire sale.

Then let’s get Vlaovic

Always thought he looked good at Arsenal but haven't really followed him since he left.

I'm really liking some of the names we're being linked with.
Maybe true or not but it beats Dendonker and Bednarek for sure.

McKennie is the new Mccarthy I'm convinced. Him and Danjuma who Villareal seem open to going on loan would be a decent Jan.

I would sell Ings and buy a 21 year old Benteke too. If I could find one.

If you like tippy tapping football and stupid hair, he’s your man.
No thanks.

There is a young tall Belgian lad at Milan called Charles De Ketelaere, who I don't think has settled there who might be worth a pop. Other than that, Beto from Udinese might be an option.

He's not remotely that type of player. He is a very energetic central midfielder that closes down opponents quickly. He's done really well in that role at Marseille
