Can see it now, Delph scoring against us in the Play Off final giving them the lead... ...only for Clark to score an own goal in the dying minutes taking it to extra time where Gabby scores his 1 goal of the decade to win it for us 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dont_do_it_doug. Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 According to the Birmingham Mail we are after Nikola Kalinic, former Blackburn striker now at Fiorentina where he appears to be doing well. They got this from Corriere dello Sport, who could be absolutely anybody for all I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure that guy is going to China for silly money, unless Xia is using his contacts tov get that guy in on loan once the deal to China is done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sne Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 With Gabriel Jesus coming in January I wonder where that will leave Iheanacho at Man City? Nigeria not in the AFCON he would be an perfect loan for us. Highly unrealistic, but still... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VILLAMARV Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 We didn't get a left winger in the summer and we still desperately need some balance. If Grealish and/or Green aren't up to it in Bruce's eyes then I'd love to see something done about that. Hutton, Westwood, Gardner may be shit but Grealish, Amavi, Ayew, McCormack, Kodjia and now Bacuna have all basically been filling in out of position at some point this season and Bruce is likely to want to play a 442 at times (which is no bad thing imo). Having mentioned Gardner and Westwood - If we got 2 central midfielders in I'd be delighted. If we don't get 1 central midfielder in this window I'll be disappointed. Can Bruce find us better options at RB and GK? lets see. No-one's going to complain if we dont see Hutton again or if Gollini/Bunn are battling out for a place on the bench because we have found some keeper we all can agree on being an upgrade. I just think a Left winger and a central midfielder coming in would do us more good than say a RB and a CM. And after the last few years I dont really want to get my hopes up on more than 1 or maybe 2 signings in January. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HongKongVillan Posted December 28, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted December 28, 2016 arh Kalinic, one of those who didn't score many in the Prem but just always score against us (if my porr memory serves me right) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grasshopper Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 Bruce will get us 6th with what we've got. The more he gets in the easier it'll be. The less stress & nerves created the better for the cardioligy of the fans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtsimonw Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 Kalinic scored 13 goals for Blackburn in 53 games - 5 of those goals were against us. To be fair, it'd be a little harsh to judge him on his time at Blackburn. They weren't a particularly good side and he was only 21/22 at the time, he's mostly done pretty well elsewhere. But I just don't see him dropping down to come here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
