January predictions

[greasedupdeafguy]

What would be your perfect January in terms of transfers, for me

Ins - Centre Back ( Hangeland, Samba or Vertonghan )
Winger ( Hoilett, Hazzard or Zaha )
Centre Mid ( De Rossi or M'villa )
A replacement for Tevez - Lavezzi

Out - Bridge
Toure
Nielson
Nedum ( hope he stays but I think Mancini will sell )
Tevez
As many loanees sold permanently e.g Adebayor

 

[Big G]

Main changes will be Kolo and Tevez out and shirts being replaced, I cannot see us getting big names in to replace them, although I think the striker may be a shock signing.
1st player in on Jan 3rd.

 

[Seosa]

In:
- De Rossi
- Chivu

Out:
- Tevez
- K.Toure
- Onouha
- Kolarov

 

[Alan_Is_A_Blue]

Cant see anyone from Napoli joining until Summer with no Champions League. Cant see major signings. Maybe even a striker with good goal-scoring experience from a lesser league (A rag Henrik Larson signing for instance) on loan for 6 months.

Out - Tevez, Nedum, Bridge.

 

[Damocles]

Why would we sell Kolo, an established squad member who Mancini obviously rates, and leave ourselves short at CB?

 

[itisrising]

Just think we don't 3 or 4 players and rather just a decent, versatile squad player.

 

[stavros]

Rodwell (mancini could mould this guy into a world class centre half. he has same strengths as kompany)

as thats unlikely, then.....

Samba, who is also a class act.

De Rossi would be great too.

Defoe. can come in and hit the ground running. poacher. not world class but would score a bucket full in our team

 

[kun]

In:
Thiago Silva P/Ex
Nathan Redmond £6m
Ivica Olic LOAN
Juan Angel Pozo

Out:
Stefan Savic LOAN
Carlos Tevez P/Ex
Wayne Bridge £2m
Gunnar Nielsen £1m

 

[Ell-ano]

In
Eziquel Lavezzi £19m
Gary Cahill £8m

Out
Nedum £4m
Wayne Braidge £1m
Tevez £20m

 

[beast]

I'd like Defoe or someone similar.

 

[decmancity]

In:
Old but experienced CB eg Chivu
Super quick winger/striker eg Hoilett

Out:
Bridge
RSC
Ade
Weiss

We should also get some pre contracts for De Rossi, Dzagoev and Cahill imo.

 

[Ethan23]

would be superb if we get;

Lavezzi for £20-5
De Rossi for free

then get rid of'

Bridge - 3-4 mil
onouha - 5 mil
Tevez - 25 mil

Then just move for a world class center back in summer

 

[p.taker]

would be superb if we get;

Lavezzi for £20-5
De Rossi for free

Bridge - 3-4 mil
onouha - 5 mil
Tevez - 25 mil

We'll be paying for De Rossi as we'll want him straight away.

 

[Any1aBlue]

Why would we sell Kolo, an established squad member who Mancini obviously rates, and leave ourselves short at CB?

I think basically because he isnt good enough for a 1st team place, and he stated "play me or sell me".........................Surely we've learnt our lesson about keeping players who aren't fully commited to the cause?<br /><br />-- Sun Dec 11, 2011 10:02 pm --<br /><br />Cahill & Di Rossi in.
Don't need another striker/target man.

 

[Matt the Giant]

We'll be paying for De Rossi as we'll want him straight away.

Could very well be the case. I can't think of one realistic player in the world Mancini would rather have than De Rossi.

He ticks all the boxes doesn't he?

YaYa-like positional qualities
Experience.
Heart of a tiger.
Mentality/Attitude.
Team work.
Potential.
A shit load of talent

And he's Italian.

 

[Cityisland]

would be superb if we get;

Lavezzi for £20-5
De Rossi for free

Bridge - 3-4 mil
onouha - 5 mil
Tevez - 25 mil

We would be lucky to get a packet of crisps for bridge. He will leave on a free, when he eventually does go.

 

[Jumanji]

Don't think we'll bring /anyone/ in. Slim chance might be De Rossi as he could be a steal. January's gonna be pretty quiet.

We need to sell our fringe players before we think about signing Hazard, Lavezzi, Reus, and everybody under the sun that some of our transfer muppets seem to fantasize about. ;)

 

[carlos tevez is a blue]

We'll be paying for De Rossi as we'll want him straight away.

Could very well be the case. I can't think of one realistic player in the world Mancini would rather have than De Rossi.

YaYa-like positional qualities

Heart of a tiger.
Mentality/Attitude.
Team work.
Potential.
A shit load of talent

And he's Italian.

He has all of the above apart from potential.

 

[Who gives a tony book]

How about replacing tevez with someone who is English and knows his way around the English premier penalty boxes come on down Darren bent tailor made with all the supply we have,I know people will say he is not world class but how many goals could this guy score for us? Blue moon I saw you standing alone

 

[g180aj]

out:
Tevez £25 mill
kolo toure £7.5mill
Bridge £1.5 mill

In:
Reus £15 mill
Vertonghen £8-12mill

I think this would improve us massively as a squad and would give us a lot more versatility and more complete, aswel as cutting the wage bill in the process.
