January Targets

[KoemansNumberTens]

We have been linked with Bobby Reid of Bristol City

You know anything about him? I've never heard of him

Was more of a true central midfielder before this season. He's now moved much further up the pitch, often playing behind the main striker. He's also been the lone man up top in a few matches. Played 1862 of 1890 possible minutes, bagged 10 in 21.

Seems to be very much the poacher and someone who runs the channels, rather than someone who plays with his back toward goal. Only 5'7", so he'd likely not be too effective in that role. Bristol City's manager calls him a "nine and a half".

It's not the greatest of sources for these sorts of things, but Transfermarkt indicates he has an option for next year on his current deal. Not sure if that's a player, club, or mutual option though. Bristol City are also apparently wanting Liam Walsh for ~£1M. So maybe there's a deal to be had here, especially if Reid could leave for nothing in the summer.

Like what I've seen of him.

LB best be due in on the 1st of January

We can register like garbutt in January so have some cover.

[EVERTON 66]

We clearly need one desperately,id like us to take a look at Jonas Hector at FC Koln.

Jerome roussilon (Montpellier) for me can play LB CB OR LW.

January might be more about moving people on, and trimming the massive squad, with just a couple coming in in the necessary areas.

Agree cutting the squad to make room for some astute additions sounds the way to go to me.

[Makis]

Ive said a few times I've totally lost interest in value in football players. What matters is moving the club forward, it may aswell be Monopoly money to me.

So we sign him and maybe Kone for the remaining ten million. Happy?

[BlueForYou]

Bobby Reid and David Brooks, the best from the Championship

Sky reporting jon obi mikel has turned us down to stay in china😂😂😂

[Fynci]

Sounds like we might only be looking for a striker if one is available. Might be a quieter January than we first thought.

Lad in tef saying a left back and a centre forward WILL be brought in

[School of Science]

Listening to Sam, he definitely wants to trim the squad, mentioned the young foreign players that haven't settled, looks like them, probably out on loan. Dominant centre half, centre forward left back. Would it be harsh to say Jags and Baines look finished ?

Any names mentioned

We don't need much more. Might be able to get away with just a left back, honestly.

The summer is a better time for bigger moves.
