January Transfer Wishlist

Hope to * Rodgers indeed had that meeting. It's more important than any single player - the fact that planning seems to be on the minds of the important people.

 

Out:
Bernie
Rocky
Lagerbeike
Palma
Yang
Tillo
Holm
Kwon

In:
Kvistgaarden
Balikwisha
Tierney

In an absolute ideal world

 

I dont see the hype in akvistgaarden. I hope im wrong though. 30 goals in 85 games.

He’s clearly on an upwards trajectory though. 10 goals and 4 assists in 15 league games this season. 4 goals in 7 games in the cups/Europe as well.

Definitely looks the type who, if we miss out, will end up playing for the likes of Bremen or Frankfurt and tear it up.

 

This season it's 15 in 22 with 5 assists. He's also only 22, so quite young.

 

The more I think about it, we should really show some ambition here.

In:

Kieran Tierney (free)
Bazoumana Touré (£8m)
Matias Kvistgaarden (£12m)
Alvyn Sanches (£8m)

Total = £28 million.

Out:

Alexandro Bernabei (£7m)
Luis Palma (£5m)
Stephen Welsh (£3m)
Yang-Hyun Jun (£3m)
Kyogo Furuhashi (£10m)

Total = £28 million.

Note** I don't want us to get rid of Kyogo unless it's for Kvistgaarden or someone similar.

While the likes of Touré, Sanches and Kvistgaarden are young, they look like potentially brilliant players. We had interest in all three last Summer and I wish we would've pulled the trigger on at least one or two of them.

They've only gotten better since we were last linked. We need to act now before they are genuinely unattainable. Touré looks like a future star and Sanches offers the creativity (reminds me of O'Riley) we're sorely lacking at the minute. Like Kvistgaarden, he's versatile too and can cover multiple positions.

 

Why would Brendan lie about meeting with Dermot

 

Those sort of incoming would show we mean proper business. We don't need to break even either, move on the dead wood for sure but even a net spend of 10m is fine if we bring in that level of quality . Money is there and the wage bill wouldn't change too much if we moved on enough of the dead wood ( we have plenty ).

 

Flew to Dublin Tuesday to discuss January with all the big heads. Cheque book has to be coming out . Think we are going to be happy by end of window.

 

After I made that post I looked up a few of those guys again - think we've missed the boat on Touré and Kvistgaarden now. It was the same with that Israeli kid a few years back Oscar Gloukh.

But these are the types of players I'm looking for. Young but obviously talented. Not projects, prospects. Could do with a few older heads in the team too (ala Mooy).

 

Kyogo has had very little impact in recent derby and Champions League games, being largely anonymous, and has missed an astonishing amount of sitters in these games. I would say Maeda has had much more of an impact in these games, with Kyogo being routinely bypassed and sussed out by opponents. He's a man down at the moment, and I wouldn't bet on him doing anything in the Ibrox or Young Boys games, his confidence is rock bottom.

Nostalgia is not going to cut in these games.

We need some decent additions in January.

 

Fair enough
