We won't be spending big in January and all those will cost a lot, or in Hudson Odoi's case, not really worth it, in my humble opinion.

Ivan Toney would be gettable I think, as he'd be looking to get into World Cup consideration.

And we could use someone who can take a penalty.

Might cause dressing room disruptions though,as he'd be contending with Ollie for club and country.

Might be advisable to pass on Toney. We could do without his disruptions.

So a non-scoring striker. Proper false 9.

We're in for a Brazilian called Alysson and the video shows him.in a Liverpool shirt but he plays in Brazil and is a striker, not a goalie....make it make sense.

His goalscoring record isn’t much better than a goalie.

Minteh, Bowen or Hudson odoi would be good if we had any money.
We have all the money in the world. We could afford any of those.
We are NOT ALLOWED to spend it.

And if we could spend that money I wouldn't want any of them.

Aston Villa are interested in Strasbourg's 23-year-old Argentinian striker Joaquin Panichelli, with Chelsea and West Ham also monitoring him. (Teamtalk)

Can't see him going anywhere but Chelsea and it is teamtalk.

Are you sure?

We're going to be fine this season on losses because we have all of that lovely Champions League / Duran money in the books and didn't spend anything stupid. We had to finish with a positive transfer balance last summer because that was our punishment from UEFA, and we did so. The new UEFA accounting period begins on January 1st.

I think our settlement with UEFA says that we can't register new signings for Europa League for the whole of this season, so if we did want to bring in a permanent transfer then I don't think we could use them in Europe without an equivalent sale. But if we're sitting in the top four in January, I expect a new signing wouldn't be that devastated. I guess we might not want UEFA to think that we're not really playing in the spirit of that sanction and it could cause us problems with them in future.

As has been said before, we might want to be wary about the books we're presenting at the end of this season with a big wage bill and no Champions League money, but if we're confident that we're not losing stupid amounts, then we should be alright. Not "go out and spend £200m" alright, but not like last summer either.

If that’s accurate Dave, then hopefully we are in a far better position than I understood.

With Elliot’s wages off the books as well (hopefully) there will be scope for us to do something.
