If anyone can suggest a logical reason why such a fight would be happening if not a footballer i'd love to hear it... Obviously someone who lives in Venice has fancied a holiday?

PieFacE Posted October 5, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted October 5, 2020 We're still a bit light up top imo. Would like us to try and loan another striker if there's a feasible option somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Ghazi proved he couldn't perform out of position there last season, and I doubt Trezeguet would be any better. We need somebody we can bring on for Davis, if nothing else. I agree to a degree, but we just can't adress everything in one window. We recently got promoted. We can't expect to have squad depth in top quality all over the pitch. We need to be pragmatical in terms of where we add more depth. And worst case, it's much more viable to play 3 months with Davis/Traore/Trez as opposed to 3 months with Hause/Elmo, but opinions are like arseholes I guess.

MrBlack Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 I know people holiday, I know businesses exist outside of football, I know its probably totally unrelated, but it helps to keep things alive, or we accept we're done for the window. - some wealthy individual returning from a break in Venice (more likely than someone from venice choosing to holiday in brum.. unless they really love canals).. distinctly possible alternative - I just can't, In this day and age of brexit and covid, envisage a business trip involving a private jet and two otherwise unlikely destinations, that isn't football related.

Chindie Posted October 5, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted October 5, 2020 Given the state of transfers today I can only imagine Sky's deadline day bonanza will be like the losing side in an election's party. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Condimentalist Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 Could see a move or two taking place domestically (ala Josh King/Rico Henry) but looks like we're done for the mai window. Really solid window it has been, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MotoMkali Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 We should save the loan for injury cover in January. Being able to bring in a Lb or cb on loan from another club could be very helpful. Smalling for instance might be available in Jan. I think LW/St should be purchased in this window which allows us to have one of traore, mcginn, barkley, grealish, watkins or ??? Off the bench in any game which would make us so much more threatening late on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
