Can't see that happening, he is their only backup RB, big clubs are chasing two of their defenders and his versatility is great for them.

Agree we need to hold on to key players, but if we are serious about promotion this year then it might be a good thing to bring in at least one prem standard player so he can bed in. One of our past problems has been too many late signings trying to all bed in together. You just can't expect to do that in your first season back in the prem.

ABSOLUTELY——- if we are lucky enough to attain Premiership standard we will definitely need a least two more proven quality players (not from France). Must have enough going in to stay in!!
So, I assume when Mitrovoic or Odoi were playing in Belgium you wouldn't have bought them.

Fulham interested in Ipswich Town midfielder
(https://the72-co-uk.cdn.ampproject.org/i/s/the72.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/PSI_HullC_IpswichT_15SEPT18_MA_117-1024x683.jpg)
According to a report from TWTD, Championship outfit Fulham have been keeping a close eye on Ipswich Town's young midfielder Flynn Downes in the early stages of the season.
It has been reported by TWTD that ahead of the January transfer window, Ipswich Town midfielder Flynn Downes has been watched over by Championship promotion hopefuls Fulham. The Cottagers' preparations for the January transfer window are well underway and with Chelsea defender Michael Hector already on his way to the club, Fulham could look to add some more in January.

I would be livid if Mitro was playing for Villa.

No problem give us £85m for Mitro the same price as Lukaku.
Spot on. But weirdly, even at £85m I would probably prefer to keep him at FFC. He is a proven fit with our style and set up; I know 85 is a stack of money but there would still be no guarantee that new signings would fit in. We've seen it recently with the likes of Zambo and Seri, not having a dig at anyone but signings like that show how hard it is to spend money well.
Quote from: The Rational Fan on December 03, 2019, 09:15:28 PMAlthough not too renowned for defensive qualities, we already have a good left winger:
We need to start and close out games better, so I would strongly suggest buying an non-inverted (ie real) left winger that can defend a bit. Ivan Calverio can play on either side, but is better on the right where he should start most games, so Kamara and Knockaert can be super-subs which will end games better.

All would cost plenty of £££ and sadly our budget is very tight to FFP and we will 100% not be spending big until we sell big - i.e. once Mitro is sold as he most assuredly will be once we fail to get promoted this season as our manager isn't up to it.

Elliot is via tribunal. No idea when that decision is due, but historically tribunal money isn't very much.
With regards to Sess, it would depend on how the deal is structured. It might be £25m over 6 years or something. We don't know.

Fulham Linked With The January Acquisition Of A Winger

With Fulham sitting, as I type, in fourth place in the Championship table, hopes of a quick return to the Premier League are gathering momentum.
In a matter of days, the January transfer window will open and it could prove to be a vital period for the club.
Decisions have to be made as to whether there is a necessity, and the funds are available, to bring some fresh talent to Craven Cottage to give our promotion push some added impetus.
Yesterday, lurking in the pages of The Daily Mail was the inference that Fulham may well be interested in bringing in a young winger, on loan.
The winger in question is Jack Clarke, a 19-year-old who is on the books of Tottenham Hotspur but who is currently on loan at Leeds United.
Clarke joined Tottenham back in the summer but was loaned back to Leeds to further his ongoing development.
But Clarke hasn't been able to get the amount of first-team action Tottenham would like and he could be recalled.
Fulham, having sold Ryan Sessegnon to Tottenham back in the summer, could be the next stop-off point for the teenager although we should point out that our London rivals, Brentford, are also said, by our referenced source, to be interested.
Here at Vital Fulham we'll keep our eyes open for any further development and report back as deemed necessary.

In answer to your second question, in view of that he signed for Spurs, it is reasonable to presume that his aim is to become good enough to play for them. Sitting it out at Elland Road is doing nothing to further his cause.

I'd be a bit surprised if we did serious business this window, given we had to wait for the Sess money to come in before we go Hector and we have no more loan spots.
Does anyone know if we can buy any of our loanees now to free up a spot? We surely know we want Reed and Reid of the 5 at the least!

Very underwhelmed by the names mentioned like Drinkwater who seem to have lost whatever he had. Now is not the time for a player to come in to rediscover himself. It would be one thing if he had been injured, but he has been generally healthy for the last couple of seasons without playing games which means several coaches has deemed him not good enough.
In the summer some interesting names were mentioned at least briefly. Victor Wanyama of Spurs for example I believe was mentioned (probably wishful thinking). After recovering from injury he was a regular towards the last part of last season, and started games both in the league and the CL.
Seem to be massively out of favour at Spurs now, so maybe, just maybe he could be pursuaded to join another London club for 6 months with a view to permanent conditional by promotion. Would sort out any DM worries.
Amartey of Leicester is another that would fill multiple needs as he has mostly played DM, but in the PL has been used primarily as a right back (was a regular to start last season before injury ruled him out). Don't know why he hasn't played so far this season, so may still have issues because of the injury. If he is just not fancied for a place in one of Englands best teams, then I would go for him. Watched him a lot when he played in Sweden and some in Denmark, and back then he was a class above (although that doesn't say much).
Two athletic, strong, tall players with defensive qualities that are also used to playing in England and are of a good age so that they would benefit us massively also in case of promotion.
There are of course two problems, with the first being that it is unlikely that we could get them, and the second that we already have filled our loan quota for the season (so that someone needs to be returned/made permanent/dropped from the 18).

In current state, and last few years nothing. But, we have a good track record of taking in players when they're low on confidence, have personal problems and manage to get them back on track so it wouldn't be a terrible transfer. A gamble for sure and I still think wages hold us back but if we could get him anywhere near those Leicester days, it would be quite the coup.
For what its worth, I don't think it'll happen and I doubt Parker is really interested at this stage.

I've never really bought into this - he was still flying at international level and known as a fantastic player. He didn't fit Benitez's system which relies on a very mobile, pacey forward working often in isolation. Any 'anger issues' were likely a result of frustration with this (and he was what, 22?).
There is a case for Danny Murphy and possibly Zamora but, to be honest, it was a long time ago and there have been far more examples (such is the law of averages with these things) where it hasn't worked out. Markovic being a very recent (and possibly more accurate comparison giving recent playing time, etc) example.

I'd be a bit surprised if we did serious business this window, given we had to wait for the Sess money to come in before we go Hector and we have no more loan spots.
Does anyone know if we can buy any of our loanees now to free up a spot? We surely know we want Reed and Reid of the 5 at the least!

Even at 34, if he'd sign on a free or for a loan for the rest of this season I wouldn't mind him as RB option. Would rather a player in their prime though

I think someone threw your rocker away before you could fall off it. No, seriously...
I don't see the Khans letting ANY players go out the door this window. We just got over missing 4 midfielders (including Cairney) due to illness or injury. We need everybody...well, except Cisse.

EXCLUSIVE by Duncan Wright: FULHAM'S former Chelsea academy star Martell Taylor-Crossdale is being lined up for a loan move to Wigan.
Taylor-Crossdale, 20, moved to Craven Cottage on a two-year deal having been snapped up from neighbours Chelsea last summer.
Now manager Scott Parker wants the striker to get regular game time in the Championship to continue his development in the hope he will be ready to step up to the first team at Fulham next season.
Wigan are hoping the London-born forward, who came through in the same Chelsea age group as Reece James, Rhian Brewster and Marc Guehi, can provide the goals to help move them away from relegation trouble in the Championship.

Thought I'd take a peek at the Huddersfield board about the Kongolo rumours...
Aside from the digs at London ('not my capital anymore' a particular favourite') and other about our club, the views seem to say pretty similar things:
- Decent when partnered well
- Doesn't want to be at Town, concerns about attitude
- Still relatively young, some reckon if it were permanent we'd be looking at £10m+ (though we all like to exaggerate)
- If he sorts his attitude out could be phenomenal, if not will get lazier and be terrible

Hmmm poor attitude and lazy, doesn't want to be there.
Sounds right up our alley, may even break our transfer record.
On the other hand under the right coach and ethos and conditions he may be different, but it has to be at a give away fee, as he sounds a busted flush where he current is. But then again is he carrying too match baggage. Then again players can react differently to different managers and different clubs.

He was very highly rated at Feyenoord and Monaco spent a lot of money for him, so I was a bit surprised to see him go to Huddersfield.
He is a LCB that can play as LB as well. He played most games at LB for Huddersfield this year (and against us), as they had no other left back - they have been using a 20-year-old kid for the last 10 games or so. Huddersfield fans like him, but think he can't be bothered any more and wants to leave (as St Andrews White wrote earlier). I think this is the main reason that he has not been selected since their loss to Bristol City at the end of November (plus an injury he got at that game).

This,
I gather from Huddersfield fans that he was a bit of a fan favourite the year they got relegated. Many felt he was one of the only higher class players they had.
Most now begrudgingly feeling that he doesn't want to be at Huddersfield (or maybe it's be 'in' Huddersfield - would you if you'd played in Monace and Feyenoord!)
He's tall and athletic with an ability to drift by a player. Loves a lunging tackle as he has long legs so made a few Hollywood challenges last year for them. Some of their fans have the hump with him because they felt he was sulking about playing in the championship. So that's the risk, but perhaps if he was playing in London for a "bigger" club in his mind than Huddersfield and a chance of promotion he might refind his form. Seems when he's up for it he's quality but he's just not on it this year. Could be one of those where we can sign a quality player when he's cooled off a little and he goes on to be great for us. OR we could find ourselves with ha player who gives up when the going get's tough. I guess we'll see if we get him at all!

Kongolo cannot even make the bench after Huddersfield conceded 5 goals against Stoke and 2 goals against Barnsley. The coaches task is to avoid going to League One, I assume he knows more about Kongolo than we do and wants to sell him to us to free some money up for the relegation struggle. Any money he gets will probably go buy a new left back (as that position has the worst statistics) to replace the one ahead of Kongolo. RISKY sounds like an understatement either their coach is an idiot or we are for considering him.

Bit of an oversimplification just to assume Kongolo can't be bothered with the Championship IMO.
I should imagine he (a bit like Seri) came here expecting to be playing relatively successful, expansive football against Man City, Liverpool et al, but ended up in one of the worst ever PL teams, losing 3 out of every 4 games and getting humiliated regularly. It hasn't improved much for them despite dropping down, so I should imagine the atmosphere there is pretty toxic. Now the fans are on his back, and he's playing in a division where rough, negative tactics are often allowed to neutralise the most talented players because of the crap refereeing. All this coupled with moving from Monaco to Huddersfield.
Maybe it has all just caught up with lad and he's depressed.
A fresh start in London, a more positive dressing room and a clean slate with new fans could be just what he needs.

Couldn't agree more, it's rarely as simple as a blanket statement like - he don't wanna be in the champ. His current state is likely to be an accumulation of events and sounds, like many players before him, like a move might help he rediscover his form and state of mind. We all know a fresh start can make a big difference in our own lives so why not him too.
I'm not desperate for his signature, but my dutch buddy seems to think he was very well liked at Feyenoord too so he must have some quality in the locker and perhaps we're the team to help him find it again - ala Johanson and Mitro.

Bit of an oversimplification just to assume Kongolo can't be bothered with the Championship IMO.
I should imagine he (a bit like Seri) came here expecting to be playing relatively successful, expansive football against Man City, Liverpool et al, but ended up in one of the worst ever PL teams, losing 3 out of every 4 games and getting humiliated regularly. It hasn't improved much for them despite dropping down, so I should imagine the atmosphere there is pretty toxic. Now the fans are on his back, and he's playing in a division where rough, negative tactics are often allowed to neutralise the most talented players because of the crap refereeing. All this coupled with moving from Monaco to Huddersfield.
Maybe it has all just caught up with lad and he's depressed.

I think Wigan should offer to take Dwight Gayle for free wages and agree to £100m transfer fee if promoted to the premier league this season, which five times what Newcastle is asking.
Quote from: Riversider on January 14, 2020, 08:32:21 AMwow you obviously didn't heed my advice about skipping Fulham's 7 min extended highlights. How on gods earth did they fill out a 20 min one where hull were just as bad as us
Just watched the 20 minute hilights of Hull City away, frightening how bad we were , this is my 50th year of supporting Fulham , and during that time I'm truly struggling to think of many right backs as poor as Cyrus Christie, he is abysmal, literally offers nothing in a defensive sense,
Plenty of people saying that a striker should be our priority this month, sorry but I don't buy it, we MUST, buy two decent full backs , otherwise we are going to remain vulnerable every time the opposition go forward.

Been whispered we're in for Andre Gray of Watford on loan,surely with their relegation battle they wouldn't let him go out....Good goals record in Championship.

Can only assume you've got problems with your memory then because in the last few years we've had Kay Voser and Jazz Richards at right back and I can wholeheartedly say that they are miles worse than Christie.

Ultimately the more people who post, the richer this community will become.

It seems to me that all of the current rumours are for potential bench warmers, we have enough cover already. If we sign any player they need to be clearly better than existing layers and ready to jump straight into a starting place.

The right manager would/ could have won the league with our squad. Saying that I love Scotty P and I do not think he's done badly enough to get the chop. So, if we are going to sign players it has to be defence for me. LB - is Joe Bryan going? If so we need a replacement. LCB - are Ream and/or Mawson up to it? If not we need a replacement. RB - it doesn't matter who occasionally plays there and has the odd good game WE NEED A NEW RB. Midfield and up front I think is pretty good tbh, if those players aren't performing then that's the management/ coaching issue because they're better than any other team in this league has. Mitro is out for 2-4 weeks. Personally I'm not into the idea of using up a loan slot or even paying for some rubbish forward e.g. Glen Murray. I'd rather play Bobby Reid up top with Cav and Tony Knockers either side. Bobbs scored 20+ goals for Bristol city playing up front in the champ, lets give him a go for the next 4 games with Kamara coming off the bench.

I seem to remember that some of us slagged the likes of Lewis Dunk off, when we were linked, only for him to come good eventually. I reckon it's down to coaching. Ryan Sess will probably turn out to be a great LB, or LWB under Spurs.

Bit on the net saying Luca De La Torre In talks with a Swedish side.
Can he speak Sweedish then?
Most Swedish speaks better English than most Americans, that's not a problem. The problem is the choice of club. Bad club that..
They won the league, and will play in the CL-qualifiers. And play in Stockholm. And is very well run the last 5-10 years.
I don't think that club have the money Fulham asks for or neither will agree on other/further terms Fulham ask for. For the lad, yes I wish him all the best.
It would be great to see him playing for the new US gaffer in the future.

Fulham Linked With The January Acquisition Of A Winger
(https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn%3AANd9GcTGnxH8aqmEM0JmORHmn3ZFFUYzkqPgJngD4ffeqrQkKVo0TiyC)
With Fulham sitting, as I type, in fourth place in the Championship table, hopes of a quick return to the Premier League are gathering momentum.
In a matter of days, the January transfer window will open and it could prove to be a vital period for the club.
Decisions have to be made as to whether there is a necessity, and the funds are available, to bring some fresh talent to Craven Cottage to give our promotion push some added impetus.
Yesterday, lurking in the pages of The Daily Mail was the inference that Fulham may well be interested in bringing in a young winger, on loan.
The winger in question is Jack Clarke, a 19-year-old who is on the books of Tottenham Hotspur but who is currently on loan at Leeds United.
Clarke joined Tottenham back in the summer but was loaned back to Leeds to further his ongoing development.
But Clarke hasn't been able to get the amount of first-team action Tottenham would like and he could be recalled.
Fulham, having sold Ryan Sessegnon to Tottenham back in the summer, could be the next stop-off point for the teenager although we should point out that our London rivals, Brentford, are also said, by our referenced source, to be interested.
Here at Vital Fulham we'll keep our eyes open for any further development and report back as deemed necessary.
https://fulham.vitalfootball.co.uk/fulham-linked-with-the-january-acquisition-of-a-winger/amp/?__twitter_impression=true
Two simple questions.
1. Why is he not playing for Leeds?
2. Why would he leave Leeds to go to a team lower in the table?
This is not a criticism as I know nothing about him, although I imagine SP does.

Harrison Reed is a midfielder. I'm not aware if he's ever played right back. If he has fair enough but if not we'd be better recruiting a specialist right back with potential for the Prem. No more square pegs in round holes please. It's not the way forward IMO.
Quote from: @jolslover on January 19, 2020, 10:13:36 PMUdders fan view of Mbenza🤪
I think Mbenza is more of a winger than striker, he is another one who was decent for Huddersfield in the prem. Very pacey ... but went down and refused to play for them so questions could be asked about his attitude ... a bit worse than Kongolo but no doubt would be available for cheap as they look to offload (they paid 11m for him)
Also put an instagram up when we signed Kongolo with the caption 'finally' and 'desire them' - doubt that endeared him to Huddersfield fans

Either the scouting team that brought him in have new jobs playing on FIFA at Fulham or Bournemouth. I wouldn't mind but they don't even have the excuse of not seeing him play live - surely they popped into the JS at some point when he played - well stood offside on the grass - and realised how he is one of the worst footballers and biggest waste of money ever to pull on a Town shirt!

I hope Tony Khan only buys players with good statistics, I wouldn't be considering paying more than £2-5m for centre forwards that like Mounie have got 14 goals in 5 half seasons or like Mbenza with 1 goal in 3 half seasons. And, from what i know they want a lot more than £5m.

So sky are saying we have had a loan offer for Ben Gibson rejected bu burnley. He's a left sided center back. That would have been him ream, mawson and Kongolo all vying for that one spot. Seems like a little over kill to me

That's a weird swap, Bissouma is a player with much higher potential than Stef so they'd be getting someone who's not great at that level in return for someone that could be very good in the PL and would probably do very well in the championship
Quote from: Bracken White on January 21, 2020, 01:54:16 PM
Flummoxed by this - along with many others I believe that Stephan Johansen is a valuable member of our squad & a good footballer - perhaps underused of late. Why would we risk denigrating our squad, unless SJ is unhappy.

Would be a really weird move by Brighton if it's a straight swap as they paid £15m for Bissouma a year ago, and like us with Anguissa they could probably recoup that if they were to sell him. Johansen might go for a third of that, max?
That being said I'm not so sure I would take the deal as Stef is proven here and could still be a huge player in our promotion hunt, while Bissouma would be more of a wild card.

Thanks for the inside info, Do you know if it would be a loan swap or a perm swap?
Quote from: Robertprocter1 on January 22, 2020, 02:56:39 PM
Thanks, I personally would be much more interested if it was a perm swap, as whilst I like Johnasen I don't think he will be getting any better and don't see him as a prem starter while this other guy is still young and has potential to either be good or bring in a higher transfer fee in the future.
If it was a loan swap I'd be inclined to say I'd prefer to keep Johansen as he knows our system and can do a job when needed.

Strange - he got promoted at Brighton and for all purpose did well - don't get why he's gone to Wycombe, unless a personal family matter. He's definitely got the quality to play in the championship. Appreciate Wycombe are looking good for promotion but still.

It's just a paper rumour, but even if it's fundamentally true, what difference does it make?
Arguably any player has an option to leave if we don't go up. If they say they don't want to be here anymore and won't give 100%, would we really force them to stay and reject reasonable offers from. Other clubs?
Mitrovic in particular is someone who's capable of playing at a much better level than the Championship so personally I've always doubted that he'll stay beyond next summer if we don't go up.
If this rumour about a contractual clause is true, it only makes a difference if it has a low trigger price, eg of it says we have to accept any offers above £15m.

Rumour that we've rejected a high offer for Mitro from Tottenham and have priced him at £40 million. If that's the case, it goes against the original post of being in a weak/er bargaining position.

Any rumours?!?! Only 3 days to go and no rumours at all....
Assuming the made the loan permanent to allow another loan to come in they let us wait.
Also any update on the striker situation - if Mitro is out and AK injures it would be good to have some sort of cover (regardless as you never know how Mitro comes back)

6) Fulham – £24m
Signed: Ivan Cavaleiro (Wolves), Bobby Reid (Cardiff), Michael Hector (Chelsea), Jordan Archer (Oxford), Terence Kongolo (Huddersfield).
The only English representatives on this list have been reinforcing their squad for another late surge to the promotion line. The Cottagers took up their option to sign Cavaleiro permanently for an undisclosed fee and they didn't specify how much they paid for Reid or Hector either but some have guessed at £10million and £8million respectively. Archer was a free signing while Kongolo joined on loan.
2 million behind Real Madrid this window!

And that's with their maths assuming we paid £6m for Cavaleiro and Kongolo combined. More like double that IMO, which would take us up to 4th!

LVBPT any update on rumours. Seems very quiet at the moment
i do have a few bits of information around the current squad and incoming deals but i cant say names at the moment. i know that sounds like BS but i have been asked not to mention a couple of bits.
there was one deal that is now dead for someone from Holland yesterday. flight from NL to Farnborough was booked by FFC but there was a change in circumstance so its on the backburner for now.
there is also a real strange one were looking at, a forward, that when i heard, i instantly didnt want. it will be a strange one if it happens.
the only name i will confirm is the Christie rumour has a lot of substance to it...its not a made up story. they legitimately have enquired for him but there are 2 transfers that need to happen before for it to come off....another strange one to say the least
like i said before in other posts, i cant reveal all i know for obvious reasons so dont all jump on me for being vague....and feel free not to take my word on any of it

Too late now to sign the striker we need for the Huddersfield match and hopefully in ten days time either Kamara or Mitro will be ready for an appearance against Blackburn.
No point therefore in wasting time and money in one of our deadline bargain basement signings.

Your assuming that they both stay fit. Jota being linked by the Mail seems strange. Don't know if that is the forward LVBPT was referring to
Quote from: Bracken White on January 29, 2020, 06:19:08 PMwhere is the jota rumour coming from, he said it was a striker he didn't want so doubt it's jota
LVBPT - This is what this thread is all about & appreciate your candour. Pleased to hear that the wheels are in motion - should be an interesting couple of days.
I, too, like the sound of Jota - real quality.
Quote from: Jims Dentist on January 29, 2020, 07:44:28 PMand yet we would all demand 40 mil plus for a 10 goal a season (in prem) mitro. He's a decent player who is young enough for a resale value so even if it were 15, it would still be a good signing imo
Have heard various sums mentioned for the Cav permanent transfer.
Some could be the initial fee others could include future add ons.
Although, very alarmingly on Sky they have listed the fee as £15m.
Surely even we could not be so crazy as to agree that.

Not sure how much he would add.
If played like Knocky as a right inverted winger the opposition would likely close down his left foot the same.

I hadn't seen Sabaly had been linked again? Would he come whilst we are in Championship? If so, and he and Jota come in, I think we can all agree we have had a superb winter window (and the summer just gone). He would be the 'ready to step up to PL' RB we need.
Would be delighted with those two before the window 'slams shut' tomorrow.

Bordeaux is trying to sell players so Sabaly is on the markert and he was prepared to come on a permanent deal when we were going to drop down into the championship. I like that he can play left-back almost as well as right back as it gives Fulham more options, especially in terms of player rotation. Those two deals will be enough, provided injuried players are fit soon and the midfield chemistry starts to click. I think our midfield three is a big problem, but think that might be a lack of cohesion rather than not good enough players.

Agreed on both counts. The midfield is a difficult one as we definitely have the players but cohesion, as you say, has been the problem. Problems have been a). there's been a lot of injuries and players in and out and b). if we asked everyone to pick their midfield three, I would guess we would get every possible combination!
For example, if all on form, I'd be tempted to go:
K-Mac
Arter Cairney (Arter playing as an 8).
But, that said, I'd be loathe to lose the mobility of Reed and Onomah's physicality. A good problem to have, but a problem nonetheless!

Yes. If no one of any note leaves either.
That said, I don't think it'll happen and we will surely get a loan in, otherwise why pay out early for Bobby Reid if not to free up the loan space?

The squad we have is good enough provided Mitro, Kamara, Knockaert and Kebano return from injury within one or two games, plus a fully fit in three to five games; else we need to give up on automatic promotion or get Jota. Even if we are just going for playoffs, we will at least get a loan in but maybe just a true championship squad player to cover Kebano and Kamara (eg Woodrows standard).

We can cover the full backs but we really need a Glenn Murray to get us over the line. For me AK is not a top class finisher. Too much hangs on Mitro. Look, for example at Brentford's spread of scorers. Watkins is top man but has great support

He may not be a top class finisher (kind of subjective I guess), but he has scored a goal every 209 minutes on the pitch in his Fulham career, even though he often has played as a winger. That would translate to almost a 20 goal season if he played 46 full games. Not too shabby in my opinion.
For comparison, Mitrovic has scored every 179 minutes.
If we only look at the Championship (which may be more relevant) Kamara has a very decent record of a goal every 182 minutes, which would put him at at roughly a 23 goal pace if he played a full season.
Again, for comparison, Mitrovic has a goal every 123 minutes for Fulham in the Championship (falls to a goal every 142 minutes if we count his Newcastle days), which is of course remarkably good and maybe not a standard for which we should hold our back up striker that often plays on the wing instead.
Lastly, if I read the available stats correctly, Kamara has scored a goal every 118 minutes when playing as a centre forward for Fulham in the Championship. That is actually superior to Mitrovic in terms on goals mer minutes, albeit from a smaller sample size.
So the stats point to Kamara being more than good enough as a back up striker in the current situation (he is likely good enough as a starter in almost every other Championship team). Stats of course don't paint a complete picture, but it can be helpful in mitigating potential bias in opinions.

Quote from: MrFFC on January 31, 2020, 08:52:37 AMWe really don't want to see any of those bargain basement last minute half fit loan signings coming in today. All that we really need is a proven goalscorer to take the weight of Mitro. A good goalscorer would have to be better than Kamara and would cost a lot of money and it is not going to happen so we had best settle for what we have.

Now I think this is a deal that we should be looking at if the rumours are true!
"Tottenham are willing to allow Kenya midfielder Victor Wanyama to leave the club - but only if their £8m asking price is met. Celtic are interested in the 28-year-old"
Really rate him even when at Southampton, would definitely be an upgrade for us ahead of McDonald and Reid IMO. Only mentioned them 2 as they seem to be the preferred defensive mids.

Friday Mnop is a great player indeed! Equally at home as a defensive back up striker or an indifferent right back, but also capable at filling in at left centre back on a moments notice for the greater good of the team. Once almost scored two goals in an FA cup game even though he started as a defensive number 10. Unfortunately he missed both penalties, but on the bright side he was never sent off. In that game that is, but otherwise he's a red card waiting to happen due to his fair-ish but tough style. This will be entertaining if TK gets the deal over the line, and also surely means that Bryan, Christie and Mitro are on their way.

Never known the Jan last day window to be so quiet.
Hardly a thing happening, even in Premier.

Agreed.... it has been a bit pathetic how the Sky presenters have been trying to make the day sound exciting when absolutely nothing was happening.
What a cost, having all these mobile reporters scattered across the UK.

What's more torturous, this transfer window or watching that Stoke V W Brom game the other night?

The standout player in the Championship this season. Good player and a goal scorer too. Probably joined the wrong team though. West Ham are a basket case.

Quote from: Riversider on January 31, 2020, 11:33:56 PMPossibly paper talk and we were never in for him, where would he fit in? Instead of Mitro?, Cairney?, Onomah?

Quote from: Ordar on February 01, 2020, 12:37:11 AMThat is a harsh statement although I would agree that Cairney is not looking as good as he was the season before last. I suspect that he has suffered both from injuries and from being used differently by managers.
Cairney has done nothing for 2 years.... (post promotion)

He was at his best in a deep position in that engine room with Johansen and McDonald.
We need him back fully fit and at his best for the next17 critical matches, although right now he has to demonstrate that he is of more use in midfield than the likes of Arter, Onamah and Reed. There is strong competition for his place.
Quote from: filham on February 01, 2020, 09:58:31 AMThe way he is playing (to about up to 65% of potential) and that he has not finished or started games suggests he is struggling with an injury.Quote from: Ordar on February 01, 2020, 12:37:11 AMThat is a harsh statement although I would agree that Cairney is not looking as good as he was the season before last.
