I know we go about our transfer business quietly but it seems extra quiet this year.
I wonder if we're not going to get anyone in this window.
Perhaps targets aren't available or too expensive due to the time of year.
Anyone hopeful of a decent signing or two?
Think we might spring a surprise, we done it before.... 049:gif
On the video before the last game, Kit said he was looking at two "expensive" players that could make the difference. He wouldn't have said that if there wasn't the possibility. (Of course things don't always work out as you plan it.)

Yup, he said the quality of the couple of players we were looking at was very high and indicated we wouldn't just bring anyone in, only people who dramatically improve the squad as a whole (but then who doesn't say that?).
Wonder if that wouldn't spell the end for Bryan or one of the other higher wage players then. I don't know where we stand currently with FFP but, I wouldn't think that we have lots of room under our "spending cap".

Expensive ? Hmmm. Who would be available about now, and what positions would he be looking at. Would they be Premier players who are not automatic choice, or maybe outstanding Championship players, which may or may not narrow it down.
I'm just hoping they'd be "expensive" youngish players who can still develop into PL type performers. At least that way we could leverage their skill to get promoted and remain in the PL or profit from their sale at some point.
was it expensive or expansive?
Currently I don't think promotion is a possibility, so I'm happy with getting back Tunni and Kaca, and extending the contracts of our promising youngsters (Kav+G.Williams done so far, hopefully a couple more too).
But, that's not to say I wouldn't be over the moon if Kit bags us a couple of exciting newbies!
Well kit is building with kaka and ryan back which seem good moves if you add the man city lad till the and of there season I'm happy with that,and think if he can't get theright additions he's right to wait rather sign someone for thesake of it.
I'm living in hope we get someone, after all we have one of the richest owners if not the richest opener in our division we need some new and better blood.
Expensive players aren't that difficult to get hold of. The trick is to get good ones.
I dont want to start a new "Ruiz" thread. You know what happens with them.
But, if he was going, would he not already be gone? Transfer wise, he is our ace in the pack to release funds. Don't think teams have been announced yet but if he plays, he could stay. I bloody hope so
If the right players come along, then I think we'll sign a couple, but can't see us spending money for the sake of it. Any real spending will be done in the Summer, when Mike Rigg has a say in it, but for now can just see loans to get us over the finishing line.
