Transfer Window

[gerryinromania]

Great support for a new player. Give him a chance

 

[OldRobert]

Just for the record Hoggy it was Euros not £s. I don't see why we bought him in the first place but that's just my opinion. For some reason Farke seems to be allergic to strengthening the CB position, which imo would be more sensible, and I don't think I'm alone in that.

 

[Number 9]

Padfy Davitt hust posted this after the pre match presser V Bournemouth.

Long, long chat with #ncfc DF on transfers and rest of Jan window. My take from that

1. Not looking for a centre back signing from here
2. Not looking for a striker signing from here

Just to confirm that after playing 22 games, we have conceded 45 goals.

But its ok because we've got even more attacking midfielders than we started the season with.

 

[OldRobert]

That's OK then.

 

[dj161]

we conceeded four against Man Utd, so the signing of attacking midfielders is obviously with the plan in mind of scoring five every week, its fool proof

I was wondering what defenders have been bought since Farke joined, it ended up looking at all the transfers in, not including the many young players.
How many defenders can you find amongst this lot?

Zimbo
Vrancic
Marley Watkins
Angus Gunn
Tony Andreu
Harrison Reed
James Husband
Marcel Franke
Tom Trybull
Steiperman
Hanley
Raggett
Marcus Edwards
Srbeny
Leitner
Onel
McLean
Pukki
Ben Marshall
Emi
Passlack
Rhodes
Krul
Heise
Tristan Abrahams
Patrick Roberts
Drmic
Fahrman
Byram
Amadou
Rupp
Duda

The point of the list being :-

We have chosen to bring those players in, if our squad is unbalanced because we have excess players in one area and not enough in another area, it's because Farke has spent two and half years selecting those players, not because we haven't got any money.

 

[Fenway Frank]

Andreu and possibly Abraham’s weren’t his signings. Thing is, if you haven’t got piles of cash you have to buy what you can afford and also he was buying for the division we were in, not for the premier league. I’m not saying there weren’t any mistakes because there were, but you never know how a player is going to do until you have had him for a while.

It's likely that when you're buying players who are recovering from injury that some work and some don't.
It's the balance of the squad which makes me annoyed.

 

[Number 9]

We're all over a wide barber now apparently, from España.

 

[OldRobert]

You'll have to translate!

 

[morty]

No Leitner in the squad today. Not injured as he has been seen out running in Heathersett, suspect he is off.

Word is Adam Idah going on loan to Charlton.

[morty]

Amadou is injured.

James Husband has joined Blackpool on a permanent transfer.

Can't say that I've seen much of him

 

[Fenway Frank]

Neither have Blackpool if they’ve given him a contract

 

[Number 9]

Jamal to Palace, talks at an advanced stage apparently.

You could imagine that a move might interest him after being overlooked recently.

Would the club sell him? They obv would like the £ and would slot Byram in there.
Probably would consider playing someone out of position to cover injuries suspensions etc or a yet unknown loan from the Isthmian League.

Might well happen.

 

[Fenway Frank]

Don’t see it happening unless they chuck silly money at us personally. Perhaps during the summer when we have proper cover but I can’t see Byram playing the rest of the season there.
