Dawson would be a good swap, covers 2 positions.

Don’t forget who the manager of Watford is ... known for throwing his weight around. 😉

I have a great idea.

With all the experts on transfer dealing on this board, why don't we offer Mr Garlick the benefit of our experience. We could elect a committee to represent the intelligence on here and to replace Mr Rigg. If it works well we could replace Dyche as well.

Seems to me to be the only sure fire way of making sure we never make another mistake in the transfer market and that we pick the best team every week
Messi of course would be the easiest player acquisition in the clubs history & aiming for the stars would represent champions league football qualification every single season without exception :D

Hasn't Dawson played quite regularly for them this year? Wouldn't really make much sense on their part.

Dawson would be the only logical swap IMO, but I can't see Watford letting him go. I don't see it happening.

Can you honestly believe we will sign 5 first team players in the summer window? You have named 7 to go there, which I don't disagree with btw, but there's no way we can rebuild all that over one window. Signing another now gives us a chance.
Of MACCA's 7 names, Hart, Vydra and Gibson haven't been 1st team starters for a long time and Bards, Lennon, Brady and Hendrick we probably see no more than 2 in the starting line up at any time.

EDIT: and haven't we already for Joe Hart's replacement with us - and, just added Josh Brownhill for midfield...

So, maybe re-building isn't so great an ask?

If players go then the slots need filling. I think we should look to replace squad players with first team players. Your current first team players then become squad players. That's how you improve.

No choice but have to - been banging on about this for 12 months as dont see the plan we have going forward

does anyone really expect anymore players to arrive today? If so why? I'm thinking that's it.

Outgoings possibly but also doubtful in my mind unless some money gets thrown our way, no don't think so.

I will say again. Gibson out without a replacement is suicidal. Ditto Vdrya. However, we have done it before. So who knows. A Board so cautious has sometimes been so the opposite. I know one thing nearing 40 pts will be needed to stay up this time.

Nah. It’s the agent trying to drive up the wage, it’ll get done surely.

Either way I’m no longer bothered, it is beyond our range now.
Course it is, the agent will be on a commission based arrangement, wouldn't surprise me if he had a whisper in gold/sullivans ear & something along the lines I'll see what I can do wink wink, he'll do the same thing with Steve parish & cash will be king as always.

Ridiculous signing if true. Played 3 games since 17/18.

Agree. Probably putting two and two together. Just seems strange that Nixon has mentioned we're trying to do a swap with Watford. I would imagine they're reluctant to give us Dawson, so it seems a bit fishy releasing Prodl at this stage. I hope we're not going to let Gibson go and bring this bloke in but we'll see soon enough.

What about the lad Mariappa? Haven't we been linked with him before in Dyche's time with us?

I'd only swap him for Hughes, Deulofeu or Doucoure, other than that old Ostritch face can **** off

Forgot about him. Fairly solid I guess, and probably better than Long. Think he came on at their place when Dawson went off didn't he?

Swap Gibson for Gray, sign Prodl on a 6 month deal after the window closes, then flog Vydra to Russia before their deadline ends.

Bish, bash, bosh.

Not sure. He can play right back as well so that may appeal to Dyche to.

Gibson is good enough to do that, it's just Tarks and Mee are undroppable. That's the tricky bit, we need someone who is good enough to step in if needed, but also happy with not playing. Its not that easy.

It would surprise me. I think we have already done more than we planned to do at the outset of the window. Our table position and results, prior to notching up our last two wins which were fantastic, along with the unexpected departure of Drinkwater probably caused a shift in our planned strategy. The emergence of the potential for a Brownhill / Wells deal then propelled us into action.

At the moment I think we are like

Which is fine by me, but we need to be more pro-active next Winter. Challenges are to be faced not feared.

Our someone young that sees like Tarky did that he will step up pretty soon. This is inevitable because Tarky is pure class and sadly will soon move on.

Yes there is, a big difference. Injury or sending off and they’re on. Dunne is far from the required standard (yet).

Increasingly Very little of any significance happens in January. There’s some absolute dross bought and sold (at inflated prices and wages) by some panicky sides like villa, West Ham and the whole window can be summed up by united getting Idahlo (sp).

We’re not desperate by any means and think we’ve done well to sell Wells, acquire Brownhill and lose Drinkwater.

I don’t know why I’m still surprised by the negative and usually incorrect bashing of the club but some of the stuff, particularly by a small group on Twitter is bloody appalling and pig ignorant.

Increasingly Very little of any significance happens in January. There’s some absolute dross bought and sold (at inflated prices and wages) by some panicky sides like villa, West Ham and the whole window can be summed up by united getting Idahlo (sp).

We’re not desperate by any means and think we’ve done well to sell Wells, acquire Brownhill and lose Drinkwater.

I don’t know why I’m still surprised by the negative and usually incorrect bashing of the club but some of the stuff, particularly by a small group on Twitter is bloody appalling and pig ignorant.
We had to sell Wells to fund the Brownhill signing. With nearly 4 transfer windows of doing **** all, that can't be right.

Fu&k all that sees us a few points off Europe and on 30 points in January.

If a player ticks all the boxes, like Phillips the money will be there but if a player doesn’t we won’t go for them, like Bowen.

Should have got rid of Hart to free the money up, bpf is more than a able deputy for this level, Wells will come good even at PL level as a sub, wells value will stabilise or increase, harts will nosedive.
