At this point, I'd even take recalling Fabio Vieira from loan just to have another option off the bench. Looking at that bench (admittedly without Odegaard due to illness and Merino due to a knock) and seeing that we only had Sterling to bring in as an attacker is dire. Vieira is not the solution but he can at least play a little bit and would be better than nothing. Wish Nelson wasn't hurt because he'd be another I'd think about recalling with our current lack of attackers.

Not sure why we'd be looking at Ferguson. When was his last appearance for Brighton?

    flobaba he’s Caucasian Jesus, mate.

    We will get Sesko.

      We need to get Mathys Tel in this window, even if it's on loan. Perfect type of forward for us in that he can play across the front line. Ideally we would get an option to buy of course but at this point, I'd even take a straight loan.

      what we know about Arteta is he likes to stick to his plan - and he's had Sesko, Isak and/or Williams in his sights for over a year now. so i expect he won't want to compromise those deals. If we assume Sesko is most likely, and would come in the summer, then the deals that probably make sense now are something like returning Vieira and loaning Vlahovic. If we can somehow trick Klopp and move Sesko forward, that would be best.

        They’ve put out the price they want for him.

        Coombs he has that grown up head going on, but just a tad smaller to fit his kid size body, kinda like Malcom from Malcom in the middle.

        This is Lebron James "the decision" all over again. Who does this kid think he is?

        we cannot make another loan deal, right?

            HomeSteak re: Nypan, the issue is less the player and more the 24 hour media coverage that like to build epic story arcs about the smallest of things.

            Him taking time over his decision is pretty reasonable - he's contemplating a big move, a big change to his life in leaving his homeland...all things that shouldn't be taken lightly.

              Impressive that Chelsea continues to be able to get rid of their shit players. They could probably manage to fetch 30m for Mudryk...

              If Jhon Duran is available we surely need to be there? With Axel Disasi moving to Villa I can't help but think Chelsea might have already done or be close to a deal. This guy has serious potential, I didn't think Villa under any circumstance would let him go.

                JazzG I think he's a very hard player to assess. There's a reason why he's not starting for Aston Villa, and it's that despite his obvious goal scoring ability, he doesn't do enough of everything else.
