That would have been amazing. But just calling BAE back would be a start. Why we can never find a sensible option for our holes in January will never fail to amaze me.We should have tried to go for Alaba.

Of course he will get injured leaving us with Harry Fucking Kane and Soldado who is finding his feet.
People were happy enough with Soldado playing upfront on his own finding his feet earlier in the season?
I wasnt. Scored a few penalties. All the teams above us (apart from Liverpool) will/have strenghtened this month....we lose players.
He would have been an extra body, but he's finished at Spurs, I think we need to face up to that.That would have been amazing. But just calling BAE back would be a start. Why we can never find a sensible option for our holes in January will never fail to amaze me.
BAE coming back would make us weakerThat would have been amazing. But just calling BAE back would be a start. Why we can never find a sensible option for our holes in January will never fail to amaze me.
Because we had Defoe scoring for fun in Europe and Ade (who we thought we coming back from injury), and we didn't yet know that Soldado wasn't ready/capable/reliable as a goalscorerPeople were happy enough with Soldado playing upfront on his own finding his feet earlier in the season?
All because of a previous manager who can't manage relationships properly. And I don't believe that for a second, we need a LB. I remember a LOT of Citeh fans turning full circle on Tevez after his little holiday away. I think Tevez had even said he'd never play for them again at that point!He would have been an extra body, but he's finished at Spurs, I think we need to face up to that.
Weaker than fielding Naughton? Good one.BAE coming back would make us weaker
Soldado is better than Defoe though (imo of course), the LB situation is a worry of course, but Sherwood is hardly going to speak out of turn when he is trying to impress the people up stairs.
Swansea have bid for Chadli
No - weaker by fielding him at LB. He's a terrible defender but cool on Twitter, I supposeWeaker than fielding Naughton? Good one.
In all fairness, AVB still had a fantastic CV bar Chelsea (who still won ECL with the squad he built).
But who do we get in that is better than the pair of them then? May as well keep faith with Ade, Kane and Soldado, with Lamela who can play as an auxillary striker, there is no value in the January window.Potentially, but JD has scored as many as him from open play with less games...and is leaving soon
Not entirely sure on that, he has regressed massively since the last injury he had. AVB did freeze him out, but he isn't the same player.All because of a previous manager who can't manage relationships properly. And I don't believe that for a second, we need a LB.

there is novaluepoint in the January window.
Sorry lads I'm at school (boarding) so no dogs to walk. This is my last transfer window here though. TFC is blocked here due to 'adult language' (what are we like?), so I have to use my phone, this I'm on a lot less than the school holiday periods.
Blimey, if you think that BAE is weaker on the pitch than forcing Naughton to play out of position then I don't know how bad the picture is by the time it gets to South Africa. We have been completely fucked at left back this whole season when Rose has been out. Even when Vertonghen plays there as it simply acts to piss him off and increase the likelihood he'll ask for a transfer in the summer.No - weaker by fielding him at LB. He's a terrible defender but cool on Twitter, I suppose
