mwj 678 Posted January 16, 2016 Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 Mate he is utter shit. I'll take veretout any day of the week. Have you ever seen him play? In what department would you compare Walters to Veretout Its like I wouldnt take Debuchy as we have Ayew You mean the Stoke attacking midfielder that spends the game smashing people and picking up cards, and now warms the bench there? Yeh I've seen him play Link to post Share on other sites
Dale 496 Posted January 16, 2016 Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 1 hour ago, sne said: What about Nabil Bentaleb on loan? Has hardly played for Spurs this season, partly because of injuries, but mostly because of other CM's finding their form and the emergence of Alli. Really like what I saw of him the last 2 seasons, at 6ft 2 he would add some height to the midfield. Speaks french as well so no communication problems I know loaning Spurs players hasn't always worked for us, but it did with Walker, might work with Nabil... This would be a great addition...

Yeh I've seen him play Oh dear....He's scored 11 goals for club and country this season despite not being a regular starter. Last season he scored 11 I think. I'm not saying he's brilliant nor do I think he'll come but I think some of you being a bit picky on established premier league players are going to have to lower your expectations a bit when we get relegated in three months time. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

useless 11,327 Posted January 16, 2016 Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 (edited) That people are seriously entertaining the idea of Jonathon Walters as a good signing for the club, is yet another indication of how far we've fallen.

Dr_Pangloss 14,012 Posted January 16, 2016 Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 Walters is a very average player technically, but has terrific work rate and all round engine, he'd get into our team based on that alone. Link to post Share on other sites

A link for Garde to the dressing room to help get his ideas across? Hence why he seems to be the only one being heavily linked. Key piece of the puzzle? Just thinking out loud. You mean never really play and no one remember him being there? 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Xela 25,022 Posted January 16, 2016 Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 Walters is much better than Wiemann. Andi can't get regular game time at Derby Link to post Share on other sites

jacketspuds 4,151 Posted January 16, 2016 Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 I'm sure we are trying but I don't believe that Lerner and Fox will back Garde with the sort of finances we need to stay up. I guess they feel we are down, which is fair enough. However, it's still painful see Newcastle, Sunderland and Bournemouth give it a real go to see if they can stay up whereas we seem defeated. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

av1 9,043 Posted January 16, 2016 Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 We are not only desperate for a striker, but we are desperate for one with pace. Our team is simply not creative enough and we saw from that word removed Vardy that someone with pace can create chances for themselves and turn a bad pass, or hopeful lump forward into a chance. Given that we aren't going to attract a lot of players in our predicament, I'm warming to an earlier suggestion of the boy from palace, Gayle is it? Link to post Share on other sites
