Free Agents

[warksclaret]

I see today ex Man Utd Fellaini is now a free agent and leaving China. He is definitely not the man I would be looking to normally. However when you have a choice between Jay or Amdouini as strikers it does not fill you with optimism, and I hate to say this but I have a terrible feeling we are not going to see a lot of Foster this season if his absence is due to what I think it could be. Fellaini is also Belgian and VK will know him-a short term loan would give us some options.From memory he was not a nice player to play against. Appreciate his wages might be high but theres a couple of high earners we could put out on loan like Jay or Cork (looks like he wont start for us under VK)

Who is going to loan Jay and pay his huge wages? I’m not sure the dog and duck FC can afford him.

There's no room in the squad.

Fellaini is 35 and his body is knackered. Suffers 2-3 days of pain after each game.
I think he’ll retire, if not have a last short stint in Belgium

Hells teeth - the thought of some moron coming in to take Jay Rodriguez from us and cover his £40k a week or whatever it is he steals from us

[BurnleyFC]

Was thinking to myself yesterday on the game that there must be a free agent centre forward out there that can offer more than Rodriguez.

And a midfielder or defender!

Us???

Free agents will take a few months to get up to speed (if they are good enough in the first place). By then it’s January and the window is open.

Wonder if fellaini is as outspoken as kiko is recently
Lets hope whats doing the rounds isnt taken further

[Anthonini]

I wonder if Joshua Zirkzee is an option for us. Not free though I think he's not too expensive at this moment. He's everything we don't have. Can shoot from everywhere, can dribble, score with his head he's pretty tall. I think he would be good for the premier league. Very skillful player more like a Zlatan or Bergkamp. Can also play as a number 10/second striker.

Would love to see a more dangerous lurking striker that's always keeping defenders busy. Not just by running much but with actions on the ball and good positioning.

Too much of a risk at this stage in his career. He hasn't played high level football in years.

Jean-Philippe Gbamin is available on a free atm.

Had a tough run with injuries at Everton but might have finally got over them.

It is a risk but there was once a very good player there.

If someone is still available on free its because there is a reason such as salary demands or injury history. A club such as ours may well decide the risk is worth it when others wouldn't.

Jonny Evans was a free agent in the summer and I can't help feeling somebody at Turf Moor missed a trick there (with hindsight). Tons of younger players with (allegedly) loads of potential and scope to increase in value seemed the the ONLY recruitment policy, but maybe with a little more imagination and less rigidity when it came to potential signings we wouldn't be in our current mess.

He should be banned from the club for life for what he has threatened and said, also bringing disabilities in to it. Not something a football agent and professional footballers father should be saying.
