Will We Do Business in the Winter Window?

We've wasted some money haven't we! Could have had Hazard and Van Dijk for the price of those four at the time.

Yep, although with one or two it's hard to predict. E.g. I don't think anyone could have envisaged that Bony would have been a shadow of the player he was at Swansea. This could be put down to a multitude of reasons, however after seeing how clinical he was at Swansea, I'd be hard pushed to find anybody who predicted he would be a bad buy before he signed for us.

I did. He was never going to be good enough for us

Wish you'd stop stalking me.

I hope not. Signing players in this window is ordinarily an indication of panic and uncertainty.

Given our lack of competent defenders I think this January needs to be the exception perhaps. It is a bloody panic every time a team runs at our backline.

If we dont sign any defenders/defensive midfielders this window, we only got ourselves to blame if we miss top 4..personally feel, if we dont, we holding up a white flag for this season. It would cost the club more in earnings if we miss out on CL football, than it would to throw 30-40mil at a fullback/CM. Getting the right one in Jan is another issue but I would hope we are at least trying...

Not signing anyone. Maybe drop some of the non performers and give a couple of the kids a crack

That's it for me. Just looking at our full backs for tonight's game, and I genuinely can't imagine we don't have two youngsters who can't technically live with Zabaletta and Clichy, and surely to God they must be faster and fitter?
