If we got rid in jan it would free up room on the wage bill for a top player. The thought of that is getting me horny.

Hopefully one or both of Smalling and Jones too. I think Rojo and Darmian will leave this month, so within a year most of the shite will hopefully be gone.

I don't see any club in Europe picking up Sanchez on his salary, unless we first buy out his contract and I just cannot see ED doing that.
Well, who the fuck cares when we have Pereira who "put[s] himself about" making 16 passes of which 5 were losing possession? Of course he made up for that with 2 tackles which is no mean feat given how much he was putting himself about.

Fernandes looked a done deal. And I was pissed we didn't get him because from what I've seen he looks good. But I haven't watched him extensively and I kind of think if he was that good, he'd have gone somewhere else.
This is the key point. Sporting were blatantly using the Portuguese press to tout him out to anyone who might want him (preferably us because they knew we were desperate) so if that's the real reason we ended interest, I can't believe we did that at the end of the window rather than, well, straight away. Surely we'd looked at his stats before having any form of interest so maybe this whole story was like the yearly Gaitan rumours rather than any interest whatsoever?ashleyfuckingyoung wrote: ↑4 years agoFernandes looked a done deal.

Sounds like Sporting and his agent were clowns that fucked it up and turned prospective buyers off. It sounds like they just priced him out of the market, while also irritating clubs that made inquiries by talking constantly to the press. If he or Eriksen are still available in January, we should strongly consider making moves. Could give us a boost in the second half the season that might get us over the top 4 line.

The only sort of January move I can see us making is for someone like Longstaff at Newcastle. Or maybe McGinn at Villa.
