January Transfers -- Speculation & Shit?

[The Governor]

AW: I need £50m for players
PHW: £40m? What do you need £30m for?

It makes me smile - this business re transfers. Noone we are likely to buy will make a difference to this team. I don't our problems arise from a lack of quality in the squad (although we are undoubtedly missing a striker and a DM). I think the problem is the system and the philosophy. I think this stems from the manager. Unless we buy a RVC - which clearly we aren't going to - then I no longer believe that a Wenger signing is suddenly going to make this team work.

I agree, when we watch our players cruise through games barely doing anything, it's pretty clear that just buying new players won't change anything. A change in manager and methods is required, someone who will demand the players work hard and know who they're playing for. Something Wenger has never done.

Aye - I think a few ex-players have said that training is harder elsewhere?

You know things are bad, when voice of reason IBK is pissed off lol. Wenger just needs to be so fuicking stubborn and thing fuck this shit, let me just spend some fucking money, like its my last day on earth. A marquee signing may not changed the team, but it will give confidence to the rest of the players.

Yeah. Nasri said this I think.

Doesn't seem to have helped him improve mind you.

Cesc said the same thing, well that here he was allowed freedom to express himself, where as at Barca, he is not. Then again when your on the bench most of time you may find it hard to.

Apparently after one of Reina, Vorm or Sorenson in January. Reina is a Must Get. Vorm is not as good but better than Ches so I'd take him as well. Sorenson would be bought as cover to Ches so no thanks

[Niall_Quinn]

I think Reina has gone downhill enough to warrant a move here.
