January Transfer Window 2022

Far away grass is always greener

Gerrard pulling power confirmed. Rodgers had the right idea when he had Gerrard texting the likes of Tony Kroos.

It makes sense for all parties really. He’s potentially a great add for Villa, he badly needed someone to take a chance on him and Barca badly needed at least some of his wages off the books

Hazard
Bale
Dybala
Van De Beek

Shows what a weak champions league that was with the likes of Spurs, Liverpool, Barcelona and Ajax in the semi finals.

Donny was the star man of the competition and can’t get a game with man united.

Lingard would be a good signing for Newcastle.

He some swordsman in fairness to him …

He should advertise himself to Newcastle as such, they’d sign him up immediately.

Chris Wood to Newcastle is an unexpected turn of events.

They are bringing all of the big stars to the North East.

None bigger than Aaron Connolly going to Middlesbrough.

When Asprilla signed for Newcastle and his luggage flew open

An attempt to weaken their relegation rivals :man_shrugging:

Be better off poaching from teams just outside of the relegation zone.

I was told before Christmas that all 19 other Premier League clubs had an agreement not to sell players to Newcastle in this window.

Seems like I was sold a pup.

You weren’t. Wood had a Ā£20m release clause that Newcastle triggered.

Burnley are supposedly fuming.

Burnley paid a club record 15 million for him 5 years ago and are now getting 25 milllion for him at 30 years of age, that’s a nice deal for them in fairness

I’d say they’ll be happy enough with Ā£25m for Chris Wood, the release clause is just some bullshit story they sold just so they didn’t look like they were welching on the other 18 clubs

Vydra and Rodriguez will probably give a similar return to Wood.

Wood on his own won’t be able to keep Newcastle up. Probably need a creative midfielder and need to pull off a move similar to Middlesbrough getting Juninho all those years ago.
