January Transfer speculation, (it will be here before you know it)

Could not attach the article but The Times is reporting that Paqueta is looking for an exit in the January window.

The report states that Villa made a bid in the summer once his spot fixing accusations went away which was rebuffed. I must admit I was hopeful that we would see a reinvigorated Paqueta with a point to prove so I was in favor of keeping him.

Unfortunately, imo, he has once again failed to impress so if we get a decent offer for him I would be happy to see him go although we are unlikely to see anything close to the £85m being banded around by Citeh back in the day.

Thoughts on a postcard……..

  • Times is behind a pay wall so unless we pay we can't read it

    Thankfully the Sun reprinted the article a few hours later and it seems we rejected the Villa bid as we thought it was too late in the window to find a replacement

    Allegedly we've slapped a £60m price tag on him which seems to be putting off potential buyers

    Daily Mail reporting that Paqueta's people have denied he wants to leave

    Follow Nuno's comments at his press conference it doesn't sound like there is any money to spend.

    Nice to see the board have got the excuses out early so we don't get our expectations up that they might actually try to help NES with some new players in January. =)
  • Would that rule out a Dawson return?
  • Being reported that Spurs have offered £60M for Bowen and the club are considering it. If that’s true then they’ve obviously decided this season is a right off.
    Don’t believe it myself.
  • He'd be heading for a rapid divorce if that happened.
  • I feel confident in saying there would be no truth in the Bowen rumour whatsoever. It would almost guarantee relegation and ensure the board were held entirely responsible.

    If we go down I suspect he will be Liverpool or City bound, not Spurs.
  • Reported where?

    We all know there is no way he is sold, as we will be confirming our relegation.

    Apparently Dawson rejected offers from Birmingham, Blackburn and Wrexham in the summer

    From what little I saw of him while he was at Wolves he lost none of his determination and commitment but has lost a fair amount of pace - and he wasn’t that quick when he was with us
