Agree. But Clyne's gone to Palace.
I still think Grosicki has something to offer.

I guess Peltier is worth a try. Experienced, and Bilic presumably sees something there.
Hegazi is still here and must be brought in. I see him as an improvement. I've no idea about Ivanovic, but see Peltier above.
Grant... well, Huddersfield are playing hard ball, understandably. But look at it the other way. They need players too. They need our money. And before deadline day.
Add Gallagher, and that's half a new team.

There... that's better isn't it.

You lost me after I guess Peltier is worth a try  Big Grin

I didn't really convince myself.

Loan to buy for King, few million + Harper on loan for Woodrow, 3m for Osei-Samuel and throw a million or so bid at Fermenia from Watford who has been a solid RB for them for a few years in the PL.

I can’t see anywhere that Clyne has signed for Palace yet.  He’s been training with them but hasn’t signed  as far as I can see

Fermenia is a very good shout, and good thinking re cash plus Harper (loan) for Woodrow.

Mandzuvic is still available as a free agent

Peltier of 3 years ago would've been by far our best right back. The problem is that a) he's aged and b) that's mainly due to the lack of quality of our other right backs.

Of course.
But the point is that he's our player.
The others mentioned above are only in our fantasy team.

I’d be tempted to play Peltier in a 4 too. Better defender than Furlong and more nous than O’Shea.

Josh King being linked with us and Villa. Saying we couldn't afford his £10m fee! Fuck me if Grant is £18m that makes King a steel!!

All bullshit though I am sure...

King
