GodZola 630 Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 I have complete trust in AVB's judgement - his record so far is exceptional.We need a quality CB with pace due to AVB's long term view in high line defending, a quality winger that can operate on either flank. Can't put names to players in these positions as I don't watch enough football but I have seen shaquiri (sp?) play a few times & he looks a player of immense potential that is at the right age & someone that could have a big future ahead of him.

Naked Mole Rat 437 Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 Call back Bruma and purchase a winger. To be honest, I don't care who it is as long as we get one. Surely anyone can do better than Anelkalouda. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hd123 5 Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 lol. who's Roberts?http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jason_Roberts_(footballer)With a conversion rate of 24 goals in 133 appearances at his current club we can't go wrong. I just wanted to make a nice change of pace here, everyone going for the obvious Kalou/Malouda/Mikel/Bosingwa/etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLion. 21,491 Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 Why is Jeffrey Bruma suddenly some kind of defensive messiah? Is it because people are against signing a quality 26 year-old English defender from Bolton? For some reason there is stigma associated with that so we'll accept mediocrity from our academy instead... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomo 21,751 Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 Is their going to be a completel overhaul in January.If so as we can only change 3 places for the CL that could leave us pretty thin if Kalouda goes for example. Maybe AVB's plan is to use new signing's in the PL to gel while the old guard focus on the CL more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe AVB's plan is to use new signing's in the PL to gel while the old guard focus on the CL more.Overhaul in January is never a good thing...But I can see some players leaving.I'd prefer something like this:Alex out, Cahill inAnelka out, Demba Ba inMikel out, Montolivo inMalouda out, Ayew inKalou out, KdB in (not sure if he would play much yet)Ferreira out, ??? in (dunno why, this one hurts the most if he leaves, but it's bound to happen)Bosingwa out, ??? in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLion. 21,491 Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Now is not the time to make wholesale changes. 3 out, 3 in will surely be the maximum?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He shouldn't return this january or maybe not even this summer, but when his loan ends he could be a top class defender. Who fits Villas-Boas' playing style as well.

francozola 2,040 Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 I do think we need two defenders. Either two CBs or a CB and a RB. JT is probably going to get a 10+ match ban and Alex is leaving. So that leaves only Luiz. Despite Bosingwa's good performance today, he still should not be playing. Bran should be RB so we need Cahill + 1 more defender. If Luiz gets a long term injury then we're fucked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue-in-me-Veins 4,067 Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Thank you thats what i say when i hear people talking about gotze and hazard. we really need a winger (preferably right footed) too many left footed players in our swuad wouldn't you all agree. My wishlist Out: Kalou, Alex Nico, Malouda Mikel In: De Bryune, Cahill, Rodwell and Toni Kroos (i think he would help far more than krasic, and personally just like him however i know i'll get smashed by evryone!!

Hd123 5 Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Kroos is too slow to play on the wing and he ain't leaving Bayern. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sLOVEnian Blue 74 Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Out: Anelka, AlexIn: Cahill and a young right winger (KDB, Reus, Ilicic, Jovetic, El Shaarawy)I don't think the winter transfer period is the right time for big changes, so I would wait untill the summer to unload players like Kalou, Malouda, Ferreira and maybe Bosingwa and Mikel. We just need a CB to replace Alex and a right winger to replace Anelka, but if a right player for the right price comes along (Modrič, Hazard, Goetze, Cavani, Hamšik ...) I would buy them in January, otherwise I would wait until the summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLion. 21,491 Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 I think our three 'ins' will be de Bruyne, Cahill and Rodwell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
