Realistic targets

[AJW]

some players who i would consider realistic targets in january , either on loan or small fee , some have been linked some haven't , some we would only bring if players left all are PL based what are your thoughts

Wayne Bridge

Nedum Onouha

Andy Johnson

Damien Duff

Jermaine Pennant

Stephen Ireland

Marouan Chammakh

Darron Gibson

Mohammed Diame

[Lurid Coat]

Bridge is well s*** now - a disaster on loan for West Ham last season. Let someone else pick up his massive wages. The rest, however, would probably stroll into our team at the moment.

I don't feel those targets are realistic, though. I bet the January transfer window sees us renew our interest in Tony Warner, while Ade Akinbiyi, Joonas Kolkka and Jerome Anderson's illegitimate son join on free transfers.

[Drover]

Don't think we could realistically consider chammakh. Onouha would be a great buy for me. Excatly what we need. Think Gibson would be overpriced

[Torgeir]

Onuoha would be good. I still rate Duff, but he does get injured a fair bit so I would go for someone a bit 'safer'.

Mahamadou Diarra

Frimpong (loan)

Ryo Miyaichi (loan)

Vieirinha

Giovanni dos Santos

Jonathan dos Santos (loan)

Jonathan Soriano

PAOK has done really well in Europe league. No way they let Vierinha go. No way Venky´s will use that money in the window that Vierinha is worth.

[Roberto Policano]

Lech will accept around £5M for Rutnevs,Goalscoring machine.

What about Granit Xhaka?

Lazio thinking about loaning Libor Kozak & Djibril Cisse.

Oliver buff at Zurich lads going to be big star in next few years.

[LeChuck]

Duff? Chamakh? Realistic?!

Look at who the teams at the bottom have loaned in recent years - Cleverly, Welbeck, Wilshere, Sturridge etc. All talented young players yet to establish themselves in the PL. They are the realistic targets.

Emmanuel Frimpong would be my choice.

[davulsukur]

Emmanuel Frimpong would be my choice.

Same here

[BPF]

We have no money.....none.

[Torgeir]

We have no money.....none.

Not even for a 'free' loan signing?

[The Rover of Finland]

Not even for a 'free' loan signing?

Is there such thing? Don´t think so.

[RoverMad86]

Frimpong, Pogba and Onouha on loan would be a good Jan window for me. We might not score many but we need to sure up the middle and full back positions first. If a decent striker is available then we should look after filling the other roles.

[roverandout]

a quality striker, a quality right back and an attacking midfielder is what we need. so a loan move for benzema, swap daniel alves for andrews and take kaka on loan as long as give real madrid first option on jason roberts.

[BiggusLaddus]

So even in fantasy land you would ignore our biggest (playing) weakness?

[roverandout]

what weakness is that? defence?

[LeChuck]

Central midfield!

We need another attacking midfielder like we need a hole in the head. We need a midfield general.

[roverandout]

i covered central midfield with kaka

[Roberto Policano]

Dortmund will sell Mohammed Zidan in January.

[BiggusLaddus]

Is that you steve?

[AJW]

Dortmund will sell Mohammed Zidan in January.

can he tackle?

[Roberto Policano]

can he tackle?

If you need a tackler how about Vardis Ofoe or Viktor Elm.

Oussama Assaidi would be ok for you guys,but think he's off to PSG.

Chelsea all over that Vargas guy,could well be Anelka's replacement,but he's talking to 7 others clubs too.

Cannot believe Liverpool are trying to sign Scott Sinclair,Comolli idiot.

Emmanuel Mayuka is another talent playing in the Swiss league,who was put around clubs in Premiership a month ago.

Swiss league,full of cheap talent at the minute,where clubs like yours should be shopping.

[Tom]

We're as good as down IMO so if we could make one signing I'd like it to be the Chelsea physio / doctor lady

[doctorryan]

........and how much would you bid for Ms. Eva Carneiro there Tommy?

[dave birch]

I can't think of anyone who has complete control of their senses that would come at the moment.

[Al]

I can't think of anyone who has complete control of their senses that would come at the moment.

That could change with a new manager, but then that has it's own problems as to who could work with the owners.
