January transfer window rumours.
January transfer window rumours.
Hopefully we have identified a left back aside from Maatsen.
What else can we expect?
Loans more likely?

I would expect only loans looking at our position at the moment .

Re: January transfer window rumours.
I would imagine plenty of work is going on behind the scenes to fill the gaps...
A striker needed for when Foster is 'ill'.
A DM.
Full Backs x2.

Re: January transfer window rumours.
Yep. Neither are what we need.
Re: January transfer window rumours.
We have Obafemi to come back so that’s a striker. Shame the lads hardly played for us. Think his pace would be a problem in the PL.
We need a good solid destroyer in the centre of midfield and 2 full backs. I’d even say a goalkeeper if Muric is getting sold.

Unless we get loans in, any permanent signings would know there was a fair chance of being in the Championship next season and possibly looking at a wage cut within 5 months of their contract starting. Depending how dire things are looking in January, we may even have difficulty persuading clubs we’re a good place to send loanees.
I’m sure we’ll try and address some of our problems, but it would be naive to think it’ll be easy given the start we’ve made.

Re: January transfer window rumours.
We were linked with Quillindschy Hartmann in the summer, and I was very excited about that one he's essentially a better-defending Maatsen, young Dutch LB with heaps of potential but he's become Feyenoord's first choice, and has broken into (and scored for) the Dutch team so I think that's beyond our reach now.

Re: January transfer window rumours.
There's no world in which we get rid of Jay this window. Foster will be off to AFCON and leaves us absolutely no backup.Newcastleclaret93 wrote: ↑Mon Nov 06, 2023 10:06 amJay, Cork, Churlinov, Obafemi, Massengo, Redmond
I do think Jay will be off in the summer though. Similarly, Redmond won't be off having only just signed.
Fully expect Churlinov to be off now he's starting to get back to fitness. Until he's sorted the midfield issues he'd be a fool to let Massengo go having never given him a chance so far. Obafemi is an interesting one. I just don't see where he fits. He wasn't starting in the Championship so there's a chance he gets loaned out but the longer we're not scoring it seems silly to let attacking options walk out the door.
Will certainly be interesting to see what, if anything, we can do in Jan.

Re: January transfer window rumours.
Churlinov will go, pity for me as he came on a bigger fee than Benson/Zaroury yet has hardly got a sniff. Would rather have tried him than a couple of the new players to be honest Tresor looks miles short.
Cork might get a loan.
Obafemi or Jay will go, depends how fit Obafemi is and if we can find a taker for Jay but I see one going.
Probably another winger, Zaroury might be sold (we'd still turn a profit on his original fee even if hes not played much this year) or loaned back to the Championship.
Muric, unfortunately, I think will be sold, big big mistake IMO.
Can see a suprise departure from the backline, Roberts or Ekdal.
Fancy Massengo to get loaned to the Championship.
That's 4-7 departures.

I would hope the pursuit of 'young talented Belgians' is suspended and we bring in experienced defenders, midfielders and a striker. Probably loans and probably too late, but you have to live in hope.

How do you come to that conclusion re massengo, he hasn't been selected yet, apart from at Salford, at which he looked very tenacious albeit he wasn't on the pitch very long.

Why do you think that a player who many times could not even make our bench last season would all of a sudden start to score goals in the hardest league in the world ?
I’d love nothing more for this to happen but feels like you are just saying this out of desperation.

Re: January transfer window rumours.
Our transfer strategy should depend on where we are in the table in January…
In touching difference: go for a few experienced loans to help see if we can catch up.
Out of sight: double down on signing the best young talent possible. Give them half a season of PL money/experience/time in training ready for a good go at the Championship next season.

Re: January transfer window rumours.
I think it's pretty obvious to everyone that we need a striker, midfielder and two new full backs - a right sided one and a left sided one.
As Stan would say, "A blind man on a galloping horse could see that"!
Whether they are permanent or loans is up for debate - I don't actually care as long as they come in and make us more competitive! And as early as possible in January too!

Re: January transfer window rumours.
I think Darko would perform better than some have right now.
Looks a player that could be suited to the Prem, quite direct and physical for a winger. Hardly like our lot have been ripping it up.
I’ve seen the Summerville links (Leeds winger) - think if we sign another wide player my head will roll off

Re: January transfer window rumours.
Churlinov was way off it whenever the got the chance in the Championship. I can't think why he would be "suited to the Prem". He struggled with basic control at times when I saw him last season. Was awful at Reading away and I don't think VK brought him in again after that game.CoolClaret wrote: ↑Mon Nov 06, 2023 3:22 pmI think Darko would perform better than some have right now.

It's amazing how quite a lot of players are getting so much better in their absence as the team struggles this season.

He didn’t play much then when he started growing into it (like a lot of our team did) he got injured.
Yeah he had a bad game at reading away but I believe it was the first one back after a significant period out of the side.
Was causing problems at Baggies away.

Remember us posting something similar a few weeks back about Sacha Boey. You'd think we'd have to pick up a fair few points between now and January for a player like him to consider us. But we can hope!
Re: January transfer window rumours.
Striker (perhaps two)
Centre mid (perhaps two)
Right back
Left back
And if there's any budget/space in the squad left -
Centre back
Of course, some will need to leave as the squad's full as it is.
There's a bunch who I wouldn't be surprised if they left in one way or another. Rodriguez, Churlinov, Massengo, Muric, Zaroury, Benson, Cork, Obafemi, Taylor.

Not about building up some momentum with a run in the team but more that he was nowhere near having basic skills, i.e. touch/control, like Zaroury.
It’s all about opinions but mine is that the PL is much quicker with less space so I can’t see how he would be better suited when he didn’t have the tools to be effective at a far lower level.

Think there were some signs of being a player in there - United in the cup showed a bit for me.
I’m not suggesting that he’d have a huge impact in the PL - I’m saying that he could potentially be suited to it with his style of play.
Be interesting to see how his career pans out.

Re: January transfer window rumours.
With so few points on the board I dont see Pace agreeing to more purchases unless we can sell anyone first or reduce wage bill by getting some of old guard, or youngsters unlikely to play much, to go on loan. Also cant see an established player joining us to get relegated
That puts a lot of pressure on us to go max loan route

Been thinking about loans. Tilemans is not happy at Villa and not likely to feature. He is a technically good midfielder who can take the ball of the back four and keeper, with good passing vision and a great shot. VK will know him. Worth a shout for loan

The answers to our problems aren’t currently in our ranks unfortunately. Cork and Ekdal also been hailed as potential saviours. Can’t see either having the legs to cope with this level. Especially in our current style of play.
Suspect we’re looking at loans and personally hope we don’t throw any substantial money at it in January. Not the time to gamble.

Had 4 less apps than Foster in the Champ - Foster showed signs he could have something and has managed to step up (when he has featured)
Not suggesting Darko would flourish, not suggesting he’d be a world beater, just saying I think he had a bit more to show and offered something different

Re: January transfer window rumours.
Ultimately it all depends wether we are still in the fight or not .
If we are cut adrift completely then I doubt we will see much at all apart from some loans outgoing .
If we are still in with a chance then I think two prem loans will be the order of the day and possibly one from abroad

Re: January transfer window rumours.
Oof wouldn't go that far. I just think that while he does have a mistake in him and can get dispossessed, it's not as drastic as people make out and for his age he's still got time to develop, plus just has that hard to quantify look of a player who's maybe not good enough now but not far off abruptly turning the corner to become very very good. Call it gut feeling or just being taken in by his stepovers but while he'd be my 2nd choice I think he still has a lot of upwards potential.CoolClaret wrote: ↑Mon Nov 06, 2023 11:35 pmVitinho has certainly offered more than Roberts has shown at this level in his Burnley career so far.
