Eidur the Spider 4,515 Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 Javi Martinez is new target for #CFC, who are going to present an offer to the Bavarian club in the next few days.

(1) Why would he leave Bayern now and join us in the current situation we are in? (2) He's Bayern's most expensive signing in history. No way they will just let him go and let him go on a cheap. (3) Signing new contract means nothing but he just signed a one month or two ago, no chance of him leaving (in January).

Yes, it's a bit worrying. After our inactive summer plus the disastrous season, you'd think that they would have had transfers lined up for the start of the window. That seems to be the mark of successful transfer window. Business done early. Muzchap 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muzchap 8,966 Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 I guess this come back to what @Ossie the King has been banging on about. Who exactly is in charge of the Transfers and is it Emenalo? If it is, he must know what's needed and have a plan, but if he has a plan of the players needed what does the manager decide? To me that's a huge conflict of interest unless both parties agree on the same player? it does comeback to needing a footballing philosphy (other than buy cheap, sell high) i don't see how you can back an interim manager big in the transfer window if in 5 months somebody else is running the show (see above) The more I think about this situation, the more absurd it becomes im bracing myself for zero signings, I think this is the only realistic outcome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azul 1,615 Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 Why are we not active in this transfer window? 2015 all over again, the board will rue their mistakes yet again if we see the same shit in the next two weeks Last Sicarius 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelsea Legend 11 4,062 Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 By my count the window opened a week ago. Why are some posters complaining about not signing anyone? You guys need to relax, we've been linked with a number of players and I have every confidence we will sign one or two players but you have to remember we don't have a full compliment of homegrown players so bringing someone in may mean someone must go out. And on one hand you guys are all crying about giving the youth a chance and then as soon as the window opens you're banging on about signing someone. Make up your mind.

Popular Post! Jase 43,479 Posted January 8, 2016 Popular Post! Share Posted January 8, 2016 People need to understand that it's much harder to do business in January. All the top players aren't available and with the situation we're in now along with the uncertain future - e.g. who will be our next manager - it's arguably even much harder to attract players. And besides, some of our recent January transfers have been nothing but disasters - Torres, Cuadrado, Salah etc. El P., kellzfresh, Eidur the Spider and 8 others 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we dont even know which players we want to sign. One thing would be to have targets but not being able to complete the deals, but in my opinion the Board doesnt even know which players would be good signs in January. We dont know who will manage us next season so why sign a markew player who 5 months from now might not be the type of player the new coach wants? It would just be more millions down the drain. BUUUUT, although this scenario is initally bad since we have no perspective on our season performance improving, it might be wiser than going all nuts trying to salvage it like in 2011. Spending 50m on a declined striker and so on. I just wish we could at least sign some good "unkown/cheap" names so the likes of Costa, Oscar, Fabregas, Matic and Cahill stopped playing. The season is already doomed so why not bet on players who wouldnt normally have a chance. It seems pretty bloody obvious. Play RLC, play Baba, sign someone like Pjanic/Christensen, Vardy maybe?, i dont know you got the idea. Muzchap and LDN Blue 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blues.bridge 343 Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 if we had to take players like pedro,salah,cuadrado, dijinbongi... who were only bought to patch,instead to take players who can really make us better, I prefer don't buy no one the wes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barbara 15,149 Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 As much as our situation is dire, panic signings won't do us any good. We don't have many ambitions this season, our squad needs leaders more than fresh and competent legs right now. Let's see if we find it within ourselves to regroup and scrap something from a dead season. With an interim, a director of football supposedly doing the signings and a team likely to not play UCL next season, the wiser thing to is hope and pray for a good summer, where we can spend the huge amount from the TV deal (although every other English club will have the same at their hands). For now, I can only see some leadership being brought - at most. killer1257 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quickpassnmove 924 Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 Lars Stindl CM/CF might be a good buy. Can anyone here tell us about Gaston Gil Romero? I've been using this player for the past two seasons in FIFA because he's a perfect, young all-rounder. need: CM, fullback, strong striker.

mccg 1,528 Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 Need some genuine pace up front, a world class cm who can score goals also. Amadou Diawara being touted? havnt seen him play but sounds like a 6ft Essien mmm yes please! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem is same thing happened with the summer window.it opened..nothing happened for a while..people moaned..told to be patient it'd just opened etc..and then it shut and we'd signed pretty much sod all.. January always hard and prices are ridiculous.Just need someone who could maybe spark something but if not see what summer brings..and where we are as a club by then.
