We've signed loads of these level of players for our development squad, I remember two Irish lads a few summers ago, very very few of them make the step up. Bradley Ash may do but the odds are so against it I can't see it as "losing" one, our scouts would have looked at him and not seen sufficient promise.

ciderbeans Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 The likely outcome I agree Eddie but as we have had him and released him having deemed to be not good enough, he has gone away and developed elsewhere. Given 30 league clubs were chasing him, it says he definately has something about him and as he is a local lad, it is one I imagine will be 'another that got away'. jack butland, Eric dier, Scott Sinclair, tyrone mings et al all slipped through net.

Up The City! Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 I for one am not getting excited just yet. We will not see anyone arrive until the back end of the window imo.

JoeAman08 Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 I'd hope news starts today even if it is the obvious. Hopefully news that Cox is going back. Maybe Moore extended or going back.

Eric Dier grew up in Portugal from the age of 7 so if that is now considered local to us then Cristiano Ronaldo also slipped through the our net, too...

If we don't sign anyone till the end of the window it could be too late. Even if they are fully match it, it would probably take at least a couple of games for them to become accustomed to City's style of play - i e mid February. If we're still in the relegation zone and other teams have brought in players, it will be difficult to escape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devereux Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 That is the biggest problem with the Jan transfer window. We probably will have to wait until the back end of the window.....but it won't be our choice to do so. Its a sellers market at this time of year. Why would you sell someone to us on 2nd Jan when you can wait till 31st jan and create a bidding war driving up the price. Occasionally a player we have identified will want to come to us, a fair price will be agreed and the sellers club will let him come early for the good of the players career. This could happen, but most will wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Up The City! Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Just watched an interesting interview on Football Focus with Klopp. He said basically now is not the time to buy. It's a real gamble because prices are higher and the player is immediately thrown into action. He said the summer window is the most important As that's when you can build a team and have pre season with them to integrate them. It empathised how we spectacularly got it wrong in the window.

Ah but Klopp would have signed the correct players in the summer so there for they wouldn't be in danger of going down and wouldn't have a need to panic in the winter window.

Indeed. Bournemouth has a proactive summer, but with injuries and their proximity to relegation has them already dipping in the market for that forward from Roma. Same story with Norwich and Sunderland; if you're season is not going to plan, it would be madness not to use this opportunity to improve your squad. 4 minutes ago, Just Red said: Ah but Klopp would have signed the correct players in the summer so there for they wouldn't be in danger of going down and wouldn't have a need to panic in the winter window. I don't think they are so much in danger of going down this yeah, but potentially not reaching Europe. And being that over the next two/three weeks they'll have a better idea how that will go with their cure bet squad, I'd not rule out Klopp getting in a player or two to help with that.

Bowie Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 with our current problems you'd have honestly thought we might have at least one transfer ready at start of Jan to complete as soon as the window opened Classic Lack of Proactivity from City. Disappointing... Soon players are in and bonding and training with the squad the better or are we going to have players 'bedding in' during February Poor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally agree. Derby signed loads in Jan last year and blew not only promotion but also the play offs. But I don't think what we currently have is going to keep us up, so a question of having to take a chance even if we look at players who we think would be likely to get us back up next season.
