2024 January transfer window - hopes, needs, expectations and rumours.

[AV84]

The way we play it requires the running Ollie outs in to pressure the opponents defenders. Something that is often overlooked when we evaluate Ollie as a forward. While we might not find the same it would be great to find a forward with that kind of work rate. Or attitude. Why I also like Emi Buendia. Despite some of his shortcomings of the final product, his attitude, energy and desire can’t be questioned. Same as Ollie.

I could be wrong but I think if you took away the goals Watkins has scored this season, in the league, bar the Chelsea game, the end result would have been the same for us in terms of W/L/D.

We've scored a lot of goals from other places this season, mostly midfield, but, I think if you were to look at how many of those Watkins was involved in in a substantial way, we'd lose a lot of them if Watkins wasn't there.

So the kind of player we want to get in depends on if we're talking about him as an alternative to Ollie, or a direct replacement in the absence of Ollie.

Nico Williams...I've only ever heard of this geezer on these pages! He does exist...right? And how is playing this season (and for who?!) ?

Nico Williams apparently doesn't want to leave where he is, but his agent has been talking about how Barca and Madrid and some prem teams are interested in him. Coincidentally he's out of contract this summer, so they either need to sell him in January, or, get him to sign a new contract very soon so they don't lose him for nothing in a few months time.

We're being linked with Inaki Williams now. Who next? Pharell? Serena?

John or Robbie, maybe.

My preference is Tennessee

Don’t really know how things go, regarding Basque players leaving their home clubs, but, for some reason I can’t see him going to Madrid or Barcelona.
I think if he did decide to leave I’m sure we’d be in a strong position due to Unai being Basque as well as our league position.

Hopefully somebody with a more impressive goal scoring record than him. Very underwhelming.

How about Rowan? We need an Olsen replacement and I've heard he's been good with crosses (boom tsh)

[Drummond]

I reckon Bailey and Diaby together up front could work quite well to be honest. Though I'd rather have a recognised striker. As ever though, it's an extremely difficult sell, being second choice.

Where is a good Hank when you need one?

[SamTheMouse]

I'd like to think we could lando someone of the stature of Billy D.
