January Transfer Thread 2024

[Pól]

I think Werner will be a master stroke. Very smart signing

We should be on this if he’s available in January. I doubt they want to let him go though if promotion is still on for them.

Yeah he’s quality but another whose end product isn’t the best. We need a top top draw attacker in the summer. Not one that’s a project but one that’s the finished article.

All we need is for him to learn how to hit a cow's arse with a banjo and we're cooking.

Why would anyone need to learn how to do that?
I mean is he ever gonna have to do that in real life?

 

[Crockett]

No risk loan for Werner not a bad gamble for a Jan window, not many players about that teams will part with and he is unequivocally a better player than Gil. Probably won't start when our full contingent is back but he's pacey and offers a different option from the bench, something we are sorely lacking in the front 3 atm with Solomon still injured.

I suspect we're gonna do at most 2 permanent deals, probably a CB and seems to me like Ange wants to go a different route than Skipp/Hoj as backup in the 6 slot if the interest in Gallagher is anything to go by.

I guess he would be taking minutes from Solomon. Hard to say if that is a good thing or not. It does put a big question mark over Sessegnon though.

Just looking at his Chelsea stats:

21/22
2219 minutes played (25 games)
11 goals
6 asissts
Goal or assist every 1.4 games

20/21
3832 minutes (43 games)
12 goals
15 assists
Goal or assist every 1.7 games


So that's 44 goal involvements in what's about the equivalent of 67 games.. Giving him a record of a goal or assist every 1.5 games...

That's really......not as bad as I thought

That’s what I’m saying.

It tells me that he also got himself in loads of scoring positions if he managed to miss enough to get his rep.

That’s not 100% bad either.

He probably doesn’t play when Son returns but this is a decent solution imo

"Timo Werner on a 6 month loan, Ange..........You like?"

It’s funny how you always back our managers against levy but when quotes of them being happy with a signing or happy with levy comes out it doesn’t suit your agenda so they must be lying.

Tiresome stuff. It really is

 

[Brian Fantana]

When Chelsea bought him I thought they had hit the jackpot. He seemed perfect for the Premier League.

Liverpool wanted him too didn’t they, but as usual, Chelsea did their thing. That was at a time when Liverpool were scouting well using data under Edwards so Werner must tick some of those boxes. Trouble is, the PL record but I didn’t really pay enough attention to him or really watch him at Chelsea. So it’s hard to know really. It’s low risk though.

Richarlison , Werner, Johnson , Kulusevski

That's a clinical and elite forward line if ever I saw one

Composure and clinical finishing in abundance

Give us the prem trophy now

Might be forgetting a PL golden boot winner in your sarcastic little post

Sorted his end product in the champo

Good post.

 

[Richard Arlison]

Anyway, any chance of a fucking CB?

We needed one in the summer

 

[Deuterz]

Thanks for intelligent contributions instead of "He's shit" or "He's a donkey."

He’s both shit & a donkey.

tbh i would say its a fantastic solution for a January window.

ALL ABOARD THE TIMO CHOO CHOO!

You scoff but I bet he doesn't even own a banjo.

 

[kingdawson]

Announce Werner.

 

[Richard Arlison]

Fantastic is setting yourself up for unrealistic expectations imo.

He’s 27 so isn’t going to change much. He’s going to score goals and he’s going to waste chances.

Maybe , if you live in Suffolk
