Kai still missed one of the worst sitters I’ve ever seen.
This result doesn’t change anything. Let’s not get complacent over one game. If anything it shows we can still do something this season and even more reason to sign a striker.
27 hours left. Let’s not fuck around. The feel good factor of today can be evaporated in one single day if we don’t sign anyone.
Sicario2 - Tier 1
How you feel about it is totally irrelevant to how the team performs.
RowJimmy what you on about. If Liverpool win their game in hand they go 9 points ahead of us. This is probably the 1st or 2nd time this season we won 4 games in a row (in all competitions). We must get someone tomorrow.
It's a catch 22 man. A box striker has the same issues Haaland did today. He had 6 touches all game and completed one pass. You can say he scored, but we need a striker who can also play, and playing means going outside of the box. Otherwise, you are essentially carrying a striker who is doing nothing unless the ball is fed to them in the box.
daredevil I think Haaland is ridiculously good as can be seen by the records he broke today. But I don’t think Pep plays his best possible football with him. Pep is at his best with lots of incisive movement. And a stationary brute breaks up that zigging and zagging. And makes it harder to fashion chances. They looked so sterile today. Foden. lol
Sicario2 - Tier 1 We must get someone tomorrow.
We must get the right person or we don't waste money. It is an easy temptation to just buy someone for the sake of it but it has to be the right player.
It would not be good to get in an expensive player that turned out to be critically flawed/limited.
If we don't get anyone in, we better have something really big lined up for the summer though.
JazzG we need a body. Kai is a single point of failure. If we get a loan then it’s minimal risk and has nothing to do with our summer plans.
Sicario2 - Tier 1 Sounds like we want a loan for Tel but Bayern are saying permanent or obligation with the loan.
Sometimes you need to hold your nerve right until the end because the last 48 hours of the window is when clubs will be most flexible. You can also come out looking like an idiot though, a fine line....
Not perfectly analogous but if you need proof that buying people in January doesn't fix everything, look no further than the team we beat 5-1.
A few of the 50/50 ITKs hinting something is happening. Could be engagement farming but interesting to see if anything happens.
JazzG lol it’s like the easiest lowest hanging fruit of the year. ITK have a 50 percent chance of being right on their BS for once. Luckily we will know by this time tomorrow and don’t have to worry about this shit until the summer. Transfer windows can be hella annoying.
I had made peace with us not signing anyone, wasn't happy about it but I thought I'd rather us not sign anyone than act like a poorly run club and make panic signings just for the sake of it. Thought I wasn't gonna bother with checking Twitter too much as you'll just get fans moaning and being negative about it and now all this....
My resources in Bavaria have told me Jamal is coming.
JazzG rumours it could be Nico Williams who has been left out of the Bilbao squad tonight (not injured).
Yeah that’s what I’ve seen as well, he’s not been in great form this season though, tbf a fair few players suffering from hangover from the summer. Seemed like we had moved on though and the wages seemed to be a sticking point.
Performance today might have changed his mind lol.
The player no one has seen but has been most linked to us this window hahaaha
I've deleted Twitter so thanks to everyone here who posts the rumours. Only a day to go.
