Denzel Zanzibar 6,972 Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 If Downing can play in the middle the way he did yesterday, we may not need to replace Ramirez immediately. I'd take 18mil like! Link to post Share on other sites
Borodane 6,301 Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 If Jesé moves to LP we are in so much panic. I'm coming round to the fact that we aren't going to get anymore in. Maybe a huge panic buy if we do sell Ramirez. Someone ridiculously poor like Townsend. If this window ends on a whimper I think we could very well be regretting it come may. We have all known for more than 5 months now that we need something more creative behind the striker yet 2 days before the window closes we look to be in all sorts of bother. Let's just hope that it's all smoke and mirrors and the club holds a few aces up the sleeve. Link to post Share on other sites

Jimmy 140 Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 I wonder if we could see the best out of Downing at 10? This was where he was doing so well at West Ham after all. This is obviously dependant on Aitor reverting back to the 4-2-3-1 which doesn't look likely. On a side note isn't it funny how for ages a lot of us (myself included) were begging Aitor to switch from 4-2-3-1 from time to time and now we'd love it if he went back to it :) Link to post Share on other sites

boksicdink 1,942 Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 So any names or bits of info on this Sunday signing? Have we given up on the idea of Jese? Link to post Share on other sites
BearSmog 1,382 Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 Personally I think we have already moved on from Jesé.. We would have been informed yesterday so would have put the wheels in motion for the next option.. Who that is I don't know but I don't think we should start panicking just yet Link to post Share on other sites
Smoggydownsouth 1,621 Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 So any names or bits of info on this Sunday signing? Have we given up on the idea of Jese? According to Marca Jesé will be Las Palmas player today... PSG are close to agreeing with them as player only wants to go there Link to post Share on other sites

GwenStuani 4 Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 We can out bud las palmas offer easily. If we want him enough. Let's say LP are offering 40% of his wages. We should go in offer 1m loan fee and 60/70%. They're obviously strapped. Is it that we are unwilling to push the boat out in this one? Because it seems to me if like we want him we could have him Link to post Share on other sites

Uwe 3,545 Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 Just goes to show that we are not the only ones struggling to close on our targets Link to post Share on other sites
J.T. 640 Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 This is all starting to look a little bit worrying. Can't believe we've left it until now when we've known for so long that creativity is a massive issue. Looks like our survival could be dependent on whether or not Traore can add the end product to his game. Link to post Share on other sites
