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

[Dave]

Would we really go for Zaha now when we could have got him for nothing in the summer?

Why would he be free? He signed a three year contract in Turkey I thought.

He *would have been* free if we'd signed him last summer.

Which we wouldn't have been able to. And definitely wouldn't be free now.

Palace offered him huge money and he still turned them down.

He was clearly swayed by all those 'İstanbul is The New Cool' ads.

[Dave]

By all accounts it was an actual "I want to play Champions League football" and nobody bigger or better came in for him.

As per OCD above, Galatasaray are paying him less than Palace supposedly offered him to stay.

One of the articles I read about Werner signing for Spurs says he turned us, and Man U, down. I know he was linked with us, and them, but no idea if there's any truth in that, in terms of us having actually made an offer.

We're in the best position at the moment, but I guess if he wants to play a lot and try to get back into the Germany squad, Spurs might be his best option.

We would have had to buy him outright to have been in for him. Even so, some people will always choose the London club. Especially if they've already lived there and could live in the area they lived in before.

Oh that's right, I forgot about the loan thing.

If we want a right back, Sacha Boey at Galatasaray is available but we need to move quick as PSG want him for €20m.

He is quality...

[olaftab]

 Very good, that Boey.

Fuck him, he’s a lazy ****** who fancies rent free accommodation in London for few months. Just needs to remember his current club wanted to dump him as soon as possible.

He'd probably get more game time at Spurs to be honest, the only thing I can remember about Werner is his constant mis-timed runs into offside positions.

[Goldenballs]

Zaha would be a perfect signing.

I dunno about perfect. I'd rather my wingers who rely on pace and trickery to be a bit younger than 31.

OK fair enough, maybe not perfect but would slot in and instantly improve us for the second half of the season. He'd help give us a real shot at top 3 or 4.

He might, but slightly off the striker coming in from the left feels very much where Son's best position is.

[ASHTONVILLA]

Saha would be a brilliant signing. Yes please.

[Drummond]

Saha would be a brilliant signing. Yes please.

About 20 years ago maybe.
