Re: January Transfer Window
I wouldn't say it's wrong to claim that we would be better off in the long term without the signings of Barry and Dibling. Their contribution to the first half of the season is not worth the 62 M spent on them. Dibling may become at fantastic player but with this start and lack of trust from Moyes I am sure that will not happen at our club.
We need to spend money more wisely this January...

Re: January Transfer Window
It wasn’t an issue until we went gung-ho chasing the game IMO - Garner/Tim is the least of our issues with Armstrong waiting in the wings and Gueye returning from AFCON.Granite wrote:Crying out for a genuine six, today. Add it to the list.
RB, LB then ST are the priorities for me.

Re: January Transfer Window
A competent RB changes this side completely, that should be the only priority for Jan.Silas wrote:Really don't think there's any need to get anything in unless it genuinely adds to us long term or fixes the right back issue. We are fine just need to realise we are going to be erratic.
Beyond that just keep our powder dry and see how the likes of Barry, Tim, Alcaraz, Dibling, Rohl etc kick on this season before choosing what to address in the summer

Re: January Transfer Window
We ain't got any funds I reckon to splash the cash on a RB , or any other position, considering we were looking at free agents for the position....
will be 2 loans to pack the squad out....

Re: January Transfer Window
Left back still the main priority for me.
Mykolenko gets away with all kinds with people thinking he’s a solid defender but he isn’t.
He’s fucking terrible in everything he does.
Teams leave him in space on purpose and moyes has to literally hide him so he doesn’t get the ball.

Re: January Transfer Window
Think he's looked worse this season because he's tried to get forward to support Grealish and then can't get back and gets caught out far too much. Still think a right back is the one but wouldn't complain at a good fullback at either side, makes this team better instantly.TheRam wrote: ↑Sun Jan 04, 2026 5:48 pm Left back still the main priority for me.

Re: January Transfer Window
Yeah the biggest problem is hes the 1 available to grealish over and over again. Hes getting ao much ball in attacking areas and his only instinct is to turn back

Re: January Transfer Window
Myko is better defensively than any RB we have, switch Ndiaye back to the LW and Myko would look better as Ndiaye is a one man wing.TheRam wrote:Left back still the main priority for me.

Myko’s biggest issue is that Grealish wants to play football

He’s still a better defender than Patterson, O’Brien or Garner at RB thoughTheRam wrote: He’s a terrible defender.
Re: January Transfer Window
Yeah RB over LB is definitely the priority. Myko is crap but he's not as crap as JOB at RB.
We need to find a loan, it doesn't even have to be a particularly good player, just someone better than JOB and Patterson, just someone who can do a serviceable job for 6 months.
