If we are looking for a dynamic CF that can also play wide Werner, Rodrigo, Ben Yedder, Williams or Thorgan Hazard are the best options that would definitely add value to this current squad.

Only seen him a couple of times. Very one footed. Supposed to be in cracking nick at the moment.
With someone like that, he would just go straight back on loan anyway. Makes no sense for him to warm our bench when he could be playing week in week out for another side.
Well if that's the case, then it will be 2 leaving first. Prob Janssen and/or GKN.
None. And I'm not saying that to purposefully annoy, I just think that Pochettino is demanding quality and we won't be able to acquire that in January.
Actually, I'll qualify that by saying we might sign and loan straight back, but I don't think anyone will be coming into the first team.
This is what I'm wondering as well. I'd only add, if we do get any signings, do we think it will be someone who can challenge fora spot this season, or do we think it will be similar to Moura and he won't make an impact until next season?
I just want to believe we have an idea of attainable targets.
Not too bothered if we keep that under our hat but there is saying nothing and actually having nothing to say.

Regarding N'Dombele being allegedly valued at double the previous amount by Lyon...
Aside from posturing by their chairmen, here's something to consider: would £72m (or thereabouts) be so ridiculous if he was able to complete our midfield in a similar fashion to Van Djik sorting Liverpool's defence out at £75m?

Think there are more candidates for leaving than coming in - Janssen, N'Koudou for sure but also Dembele wanting to go to China, Wanyama (as rumoured in summer due to injuries), Vorm (maybe now Gazanigga is no 2)...
Is he one footed? When I watched his highlight video, I initially thought he was right footed. (But obviously it's a highlight video, so obvious caveats apply.)

For me £72m is too big a risk for someone who, if he doesn't crack it will be worth less than half that in the future.
I think we as a club need to be looking to to buy the Ndombele types before they hit the big time. Targets like De Ligt, De Jong & Ndombele when they were being touted 12-15 months ago are the kind I want to see us nab. Personally I'd put Berge in that category and see him as being more attainable based on the risk/ reward factor taken in money wise. If we get him and he flops he'd still come with a sizeable fee, if Ndombele turns out to be a flash in the pan you can be wiping your mouth of c£50m. Our club simply isn't in the position financially to be able to do so at present
He's not one footed he is however very hit and miss but tbf despite the recent up turn in results Hull are a poor side so everything falls on his shoulders. He won't make our first team but if he's to replace GKN it's a great bit of business
If we do sign him might be a good bet to put on that he gets a call up to the senior England squad within the year.
They did once...Jason Cundy
It's a moot point as this signing will never happen time to move onto something more realistic.Regarding N'Dombele being allegedly valued at double the previous amount by Lyon...
