QuincyAbeyie Don’t rate him yet. Not at the level we require. I watch a lot of Mexico NT and he’s very inconsistent

Gazza M I think we may well be desperate enough we find a way to sign a midfielder by then.

Zubimendi, or is Kalvin Phillips worth a shout? Supposedly we are interested in him though there will be a silly "war" when City force him out.

Gazza M
Don’t believe Ornstein, he often gets it wrong in terms of how much budget we have in transfer windows. If we want to spend we will spend in Jan.

He's 18. Looks like he might have an Iniestaesque receding hairline in a few years, he's got time to develop.

Great if we're proactive behind the scenes and all this isn't media clicks and agent bait. Still a fan of getting Oyarzabal for the LCM slot!

Definitely wouldn't mind Eze lorddulaarsenal would like a tenacious, technically assured goal threat and think he suits that. Looks to be coming back into regular flow with 5 odd goals in the last month.

sociedad have quite a few players that would be good for us. kubo as saka depth, oyazarbal as 8/10 depth, and zubimendi to relegate jorginho and elneny to the bench forever

    Gazza M I have been watching them quite a bit and Arsen Zakharyan, Barrenetxea both caught my eye too. Need to keep an eye on those 2 young starlets

      Coombs

      He played perfectly fine yesterday as he did in the same fixture last season.

      He’s absolutely fine as a squad player but the problem is Thomas Partey being out meaning he’s playing too many games.

      We absolutely need a number 6 in January. Partey can't be relied on the midfield depth isn't sufficient to make up for his absence. We need a CF too and a winger but if we don't fix midfield first nothing else is going to work.

        Fluminese just won the Copa Libertadores last night. The Brasilerao Serie A season finishes in December. We've been linked with Andre Trindade who I believe could do a job providing depth at the base of our midfield. Edu was in Brasil in October and met with Fluminese. Hopefully all that equates to some reinforcement in Jan. Not that I am tickled by the player.
