January Transfer Rumour Thread 24/25

[Rick]

Fabio Carvalho available for loan. Not seen any links to us. Yet.

Pretty suprising as he's made 16 appearances in the Prem this season.

Looking online it seems they've rejected a loan offer from Strasbourg. Where have ya seen he's been made available?

If so, I assume we'll be interested. Though guaranteeing game time might be an issue like last January.

[Titman]

Ah i just saw that a loan bid had gone in for him so put 2 & 2 together & came up with 7
Ignore.

Radja Nainggolan Anyone,? Getting on a bit but experience. Could take us for a line

[Titman]

Dunno but seems like finally we can move on from Buendia. At least it leaves us a week to do something.

[Titman]

Perkins off to Orient on a permanent deal

[Titman]

Given the choice as things stand, would you prefer a #9 or a #10?

Worse case scenario, a 9. We could play several players in the 10 position.

For me I'm leaning towards a #10.

Reason being we only have 1 at the club and although he is a decent fit for us, as last night showed he just doesn't have the creativity to influence tight games v strong defences. He's overused and could do with a breather every now n then. Farke doesn't seem to trust starting anyone else there

We have 3 strikers (admittedly one is crocked). Although fans seem concerned what we do if Piroe gets injured, he does fuck-all in most games anyway. His goals are important mind.

It's a tough one. Would prefer both ideally.

Would also depend on the player. I'd prefer a top striker to an avarage #10.

I’d go a big handy No9, hold up ball and get on end of crosses. As has been said got a few who could do the job at 10. I’d actually like to see Tenaka in the roll, i think he is getting held back by farke.
Ampadu / Rothwell with Tenaka at 10 ? Thoughts?

[Titman]

Rothwell would be my preference for, not necessarily a 10, more of a hybrid 8 like Klich used to do for us.
9 for me is preferable to a 10.
Let’s face it, Bamford once back in training is only a fortnight away from another knock.
