The Official Silly Season January Transfer Thread 2020/21

[Black, White and Fred]

Should try go for Adam Armstrong, he's so good. Quick, strong and knows how to finish. Get him for 20m at the most.

I actually think Bburn could agree to sell him, they are not going either up or down this season ans there is only 1.5y left on his contract...Ike Ugbo is another name that i would be interested in, apparently for sale at 5m.

Armstrong reminds me of Ross McCormack, 10-15M would be worth a punt. Knows how to finish.

Cauley Woodrow is scoring regularly for Barnsley, knows the club, a better player now.

And he scores penalties, just a bit slow.

It would be a step back for both of us. He's not good enough to get into the side so won't play so no benefit.

Adam Armstrong makes perfect sense and for not too much (in relative terms). Seems like a no brainer for me.

Would prefer a more experienced plater. For me Deeney (contract expires in June) or Ighalo would be better. Deeney in particular  has recent form and we need to pick up points now

Not sure I see the point in having Deeney and Mitro. Surely we'd want someone a bit quicker if we were to sign a striker?

Agreed, think it's worth going for someone younger and quicker to contrast Mitro.

Mitrovic is 26, hardly past it

[Denzil Dexter]

Wonder if Tonys priority is a striker for us, a coach for the jags, or men in tights?

No sorry wasn't saying Mitro is past it! Just saying i don't think it's worth having a 30+ Deeney on the bench, think someone like Armstrong would 1) benefit the first team 2) get experience on the bench at a higher level.

Yes, I guess we would be looking for some one like Cav. but with a shade more pace and an ability to score from time to time.

Sorry my mistake, read it wrong. Agree re Deeney. I've seen people mention him, Costa etc when It's plain to see Parker wants pace & mobility up top . Still think Mitro can have a role to play if he rekindles that spark
Personally would love us to go all in on Boulaye Dia. Looks like West Ham have made him him their top target. Not sure he'd even come  but think he'd be great for us

[BestOfBrede]

A A at the back and A A up front eh?
Sounds good

[Radiowhite]

Don't think Armstrong is the man we need. Seems that he is just having one decent season after a few years of being decidedly average in the champ. Also I think he would be overpriced as he is a fairly obvious option. Hopefully TK and co do a bit more digging and set their sights higher whilst still managing a cheap deal

[Mince n Tatties]

Ade Akinfenwa incoming.

[fulhamben]

Ade Akinfenwa incoming.

probably score more than cav.

[mrmicawbers]

Maybe we could pick up some bargains in Europe with the Covid situation.Seem to be struggling more financially than the Premier League.

[AnOldBrownie]

Guess I don't care which players we get, as long as we bring them in ASAP.   


They need familiarize themselves with our players and our attack.   Hell...even Ryan Babel alone would be a good depth signing.  And he already knows the club.
