Have to admit I havent the first clue what the CL rules are at this point, aside from my general ignorance to them they also seem pretty complicated...

It's essentially 3 in 3 out. We've already sold Johnson and we have Davies and Bentancur out until May+ who could make up our 3 out. Any extra players out like RKM/Kinsky leaving can't really be replaced plus we'll likely still have the likes of Bergvall/Kudus etc in squad places but out injured for the knockouts. Just depends how serious people think the CL is worth considering, it could just be 2 games. Rather have RKM available on the bench against somebody like Juve than having to give the spot to a 17 year old that probably wouldn't even be used.

In my opinion fcuk the CL as it absolutely hides the issues this club face and are providing get outs for Frank and his paymasters.

It is however as it is described I think..

I am very thick - thank you for explaining that to me

Their job is to identify players that can improve us and that are avialable - my guess is, they havent found someone who fits that

unless, you, mr genuis, just thinks they are actually sitting there not doing anything at all.

To be fair Dudu, I don’t understand how it is possible for them to be unable to find players that could improve us.

I know it’s harder in January, but we are so shit that the options are far greater.

Teams are permitted to make three squad changes between now and 5th February when the knock out stage starts. if we swapped out Muani, we'd put Tel back in his place I assume.

I think we have been unbelievably average even when we had more players fit and available, and within that I absolutely agree with you.

However,many on here, the more extreme but also the more moderate would prefer us not to buy anyone unless it's real quality. I get it but for me it's a bit flawed.

So what we have is the real and growing possibility of sticking, which I think is fraught with risk and presumes quite a fair bit.

This weekend might be too late to try and find someone but if West Ham amdLeeds in particular take points from that lot and filth, we are really in the sh!t, even more so than now.
 
I think our transfer business is done.
The club would, have moved players out to help the payroll but, there is no cunt left because they are all injured.
A terrible window matched only by, terrible team, manager and board, club is the pits.

I tend to think this one follows the talk of he can go if we get a replacement

I think he is a talented player, and I think its clear he hasnt performed for us and doesnt appear to want to be here

Can well believe he is angling to go back to Juve

But it would depend on us replacing him, otherwise we are leaving ourselves short which would be ridiculous

I read earlier Frank doesn’t want to lose any of our current attacking options and it was the club who wanted to send Muani back.

Considering the new league format and all the extra games ; the CL squads should be a lot bigger!

Thats not the point.

youre saying we need a cure and are angry about not being provided a cure, without taking into account there might not be an actual cure at this moment in time.

Werner, Tel - all paracetamol when we needed a fucking vaccine.

my guess is, that there isnt anyone actually available that amounts to a cure right now -
