I pray that we offload the tub of lard that is Ings. He'd struggle to get into a pub team.

I don't think many people would object to seeing Ings moved on but given he's on 100 + grand week he will probably sit tight.

Talk that Eric Dier at the spuds could be available, just the sort of player Moyes would go for, old,slow and cannot get into his current team’s first eleven.

Why the skepticism for January, we brought it some nice players last time around.
Prowse, Paqueta, Alvarez and Kudus.
I know January is a tough window but stop with all the pessimism ffs you negative cunts!

Hopefully, a full back or two, and a striker.
After the last window, I would sit back and trust the ones responsible. I certainly couldn’t criticise the players we brought in over the summer.

We bought all of those in the summer window, which is a different kettle of fish.

You can understand the pessimism. I think both Moyes and Sullivan are on record as saying you don't get good enough value in the January window. Last January we were struggling in the bottom 3 and all we bought was Danny fucking Ings. Barring a complete disaster we're unlikely to be relegated this year so you could imagine Sullivan wanting to save the war chest for a new manager in the summer.

Re: January Transfer Window

For me in order of priority:
1/ Striker
2/ Pacey left winger (right footed as Moyes seems to prefer playing left tied on the right and righties on the left)
2/ CH - not convinced with Aguerd, Zouma is always and injury concern, Oggy is getting on and Moyes hasn’t given Dino much of a chance
I don’t think there is a huge amount of money with the tighter ffp for being in European competition…or is that just more bullshit being pedalled?

I just can't see Moyes wanting a centre forward and a left sided player... If we signed starters that would leave no place for Soucek or JWP... There's nobody else to drop out... We also desperately need back up to Alvarez.
I wouldn't be shocked to see us do no business, maybe a loan but nothing else. We have form for this in January.
Two years ago we needed cover/competition for Antonio and Moyes kept bigging him up. He's now doing the same with Bowen. Expect to see Antonio back up front during AFCON..
I hope I'm wrong..

It almost defies belief that Moyes has spent £100mil on centre backs, we mostly play boring cunt defensive football, and we can't fucking defend for toffee.
Madness.

I'm looking at it like anything is a bonus, never really expect much in January, don't think most fans do tbf. No chance we will spend big on a first teamer, best case someone will come in who can 'compete'.
Rumour of some kind of swap deal with Soton, Walker -Peters/Ings.

Re: January Transfer Window

I’m not so sure I agree that we can’t defend for toffee, I actually think our defending is very resilient considering we set up most games to play a 90 min defence against attack drill with the opposition having 65-70% of the ball. Ultimately though with our style of play with the low press in most games inviting pressure it’s inevitable that we will concede goals in most games. It’s the tactics which need to change to relieve the pressure not the personnel on the pitch.

I've a feeling we will shift a few players out and hopefully be in the market for a striker, RB and a CB. Then I think that with Antonio back as a left winger or back up striker, we'll have quite a squad to select from.
The downside is that if Moyes does well in the second half of the season, we'll be stuck with him for years to come......

He thinks we don’t need a centre forward? Geezer is in la la land, fuck me does he have an issue with strikers or what. Let’s just go the season flogging our best player playing out of his best position shall we. Absolute minimum is a forward & proper centre back.

If Moyes is now finally going with the 3 up front then he opens up his options for a striker as he doesn't just need to be in the market for a work horse battering ram. Two players I would suggest are Sebstian Haller or Gianluca Scamacca. Both decent strikers.

Scamacca is a cripple, if he was a horse he would have been put down long ago.

I was, of course, being facetious. Not sure what his current status is, but it would've been nice to see him play central in a front three when he was with us. But, that's life.
