Transfer Deadline Day
Arsenal agree fee for David Luiz
Spurs apparently in for Dybala, Sessegnon and Lo Celso
Lukaku's off to Inter Milan
Will Burnley swoop in with any last minute deals?
And more importantly, will we keep all our first team together...

Re: Transfer Deadline Day
If Burnley get the player we need to add some depth in midfield and ship out Nakhi Wells and Vydra it will have been a decent enough window given financial constraints etc.

Re: Transfer Deadline Day
Maybe they're fed up being bench warmers,and actually want to play,particularly Vydra who is clearly not in Sean's thoughts even as an impact sub.TheFamilyCat wrote:I would be concerned about shipping out Wells and Vydra as I would like four forwards.

Re: Transfer Deadline Day
Wouldn't be fussed about Wells leaving but I'd really like to see Vydra given a chance; along with Wood, Barnes and Jay, that's a really good, mixed front four to choose from. Alas, it appears very unlikely that it will happen.tiger76 wrote:Maybe they're fed up being bench warmers,and actually want to play,particularly Vydra who is clearly not in Sean's thoughts even as an impact sub.
Re: Transfer Deadline Day
We play with 2 strikers, going into the season with 3 is asking for trouble.

Re: Transfer Deadline Day
Absolutely. We need a minimum of 4. Ideally, 4 plus a youth player who can make the bench in cup games with the possibility of minutes.lucs86 wrote:We play with 2 strikers, going into the season with 3 is asking for trouble.

Re: Transfer Deadline Day
Looking back at who has and who hasn't played up front, I can't see having three is asking for any trouble.lucs86 wrote:We play with 2 strikers, going into the season with 3 is asking for trouble.
Re: Transfer Deadline Day
I think we have probably done our bargain basement dealing for this window. Going to have a nice bottle of beer in the sunshine before it rains.

Re: Transfer Deadline Day
What about injuries etc? Surely we need 4 for every position especially strikers with a 442 system. It's just like cm and cb.ClaretTony wrote:Looking back at who has and who hasn't played up front, I can't see having three is asking for any trouble.

Re: Transfer Deadline Day
You bring someone else in when you have injuries - it's not like cb at all because you can change system and play with one striker should there be a crisis. I was just suggesting that it is some considerable time ago that we weren't able to play two strikers due to injuries.summitclaret wrote:What about injuries etc?

Re: Transfer Deadline Day
1 injury, 1 suspension leaves us with just 1 forward and back to the square pegs in round holes scenario again. Hendrick playing off a striker, a couple of seasons back Arfield as central midfielder when Marney was injured. Neither of these worked......ClaretTony wrote:Looking back at who has and who hasn't played up front, I can't see having three is asking for any trouble.

Re: Transfer Deadline Day
Yes but that takes us away from our preferred system and probably increases the chances of injuries in future. I just don't get that people seem to think that we should take risks when can afford not to.ClaretTony wrote:You bring someone else in when you have injuries - it's not like cb at all because you can change system and play with one striker should there be a crisis.

Re: Transfer Deadline Day
Yep. We're playing well with 2 up top. If Wood or Barnes gets a knock, Jay comes in. If we only have 3, then we have no forward on the bench and we have to shift our formation around and play 4-5-1 or 4-4-1-1... which we'd be playing now, if it was our first choice set up.summitclaret wrote:Yes but that takes us away from our preferred system and probably increases the chances of injuries in future. I just don't get that people seem to think that we should take risks when can afford not to.
4 forwards means we don't need to switch the system around and instead stick to what appears to be SD's preferred option.
Re: Transfer Deadline Day
2 for each position, hence squad size. I see what you mean about strikers though.summitclaret wrote:What about injuries etc? Surely we need 4 for every position especially strikers with a 442 system. It's just like cm and cb.

Re: Transfer Deadline Day
It's probably best for all parties if Vydra goes,some transfers just don't work out,and that's the case here,i only hope BFC can recoup most of our outlay.ClaretTony wrote:Vydra isn't going to get game time and it would be best for him if he moved on I would think
The lad might as well be playing even if he drops down to the Champ,rather than twiddling his thumbs on our bench.

Re: Transfer Deadline Day
If we don't try we'll never know,we can offer 1st team football at PL level,and also a shop window for players hoping to impress,which both Drinkwater and Wanyama should be tempted by,i'm sure they'd rather be walking out at the Emirates next week,then rotting in the Chelsea and Spurs reserves.

We could do with Loaning Andy Carroll for the Arsenal match, to help Ashley Barnes against Luiz and Sokratis.
