PompeyVillan Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 For Christmas I would like El Ghazi on a permanent deal, a left back, a center back and a goalkeeper. I wouldn't say no to another decent central midfielder. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His level ain't at championship Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the thing, we have options there. In defence we have no options, one or two injuries and we are screwed Damn right. Collins will be useful, if he stays fit but the length of his contract makes me think we've got someone lined up in Jan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has not been given one just yet, my take is that he is on emergency standby, whilst training with and getting to know the squad and setup etc and so that if anything was to happen to either Axel or Chester right now until January then we instantly sign him and he is ready and familiar with the setup. The plus side is that he is not costing us a penny which is very asttute thinking all round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StewieGriffin Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 I'd take Fraser Forster from Southampton if we could get him - he seems to have stalled completely for some reason. Need cover at centre back and left back, and then I think we're good to go 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we wanted him on loan and they were happy with that I don't see why Dyche would want everyone to be made aware of his availability. Could it be that they were or are now looking to sell him and are basically inviting offers or higher offers than we may have made them? I had thought this had been more likely to happen before Burnley went public about this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRO Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 When we enter the transfer market in January.....I hope the half time team talk from Darren Moore ,will echo in the ears of those that have the job of bringing new players in. " Lets get the ball out wide, and bodies in the box" now we all know the implications of what that means. Despite Dean playing some fabulous football, we need to nullify the likes of that statement much better than we are, if we want to go up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst we need new full backs you can’t blame Hutton for that goal. Phillips ran from the half way line to get in that position and Kodija just stood there. To be fair for him it’s not his natural position but 2 minutes to go he has to be doing his bit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah to be fair I think Hutton has done pretty well and I actually rate Elmo at RB also, all I really mean is although they have done decent overall, to improve a as team we really do need upgrades in those positions. Gk is by far the most important improvement we need though.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bree is coming back from fitness and may live up to his potential under Smith. I cant believe we’ve now gone a season and a half with one recognised left back in the squad! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delphinho123 Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 I'd buy the following: ----------------------GK----------------------- RB-----------CB--------CB-------------LB If we get it right, we'll win the league. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

penguin Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Ciaran Clark reportedly available for £5M, not the most exciting option but he's left footed and you know what you are getting. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
