Transfer Window.

[Plaistow Eagle]

I am told that Brennan Johnson has a tremendous turn of pace and a couple of seasons ago recorded the fastest time in the PL, just shy of 23 MPH.
I recall a few seasons ago being informed that Neil Warnock was impressed by him commenting that he is a player who gets fans off their seats when he has the ball.
I am somewhat surprised at the reported £35 Million !!

Me too Willo - think there were better and cheaper options out there - Bobb for example..!!

My question is if we had £35M to spend - why wasn't it invested in the summer window..?? If we'd have bought in a few more quality recruits in the summer we would probably still be top 4 - that's what frustrates me with Parish - he only spends when our backs are to the wall - and that is costing us big time..!!

Beyond that we still need a right back and a CDM and we've just burned £35M..!!

Booey going to cost us c.£15M, Atletico want £50M for Gallagher, even Hackney would cost us c.£25M ..!!

So £75M - best ways..!!

If we do it - yes I'd be happy - but adds more to my questions - if we had the money why wasn't it invested in the summer window - if it had been things would have looked so different now and Glasner would have probably signed his extension..!!

I guess only SP can answer those questions..!!

Now that Odegard and Saka are in harness again at Arsenal there is no room for Eze in the team as another ball player in attacking midfield.
He may well be confined to the bench, at least for the serious games, with his starts confined to the likes of Burnley and Wolves.
I know there were a few on here that foresaw that potentially happening.
A shame for him, but Arsenal are first and foremost a workmanlike team, and he won't be excused the occasional switch offs which he was sometimes guilty of with us.
He's no longer the big fish in the small pond that he was with us.

A cynical b****** may even suggest they signed him just to prevent him from going to their arch rivals!
I hope we have a sell-on clause!

I am of the opinion that the 'Loan' market is alluring.
👍

I would be making a cheeky loan offer for Eze given he has fallen down the pecking order at the Gooners and could easily lose his place in England’s WC squad. If nothing else it might help to undermine their Premiership pretensions.

We chased Sarr for a long time and myself rated him then at watford , same with Johnson I rate him , he not getting in franks line up thoughts , I think he will fit in very easily with us , get him by the 2nd or 3rd of jan to get our window moving , then 2 more by mid jan at the latest , hopefully munoz wont be far from returning and Senegal are out of Africon yes its cruel on Sarr but needs must ,
