January 15, 20242 yr Benzema would be worth the risk for half a season although I wonder whether the commitment would be there. Isak would be a good choice longer term, that lad knows where the net is.
January 15, 20242 yr Fans do realise Benzeme earns over a €1m/week right? There is no way a move is feasible, and I would question his commitment especially with us stuck in mid table.

He'd obviously have to drop his wages if he wants to move away from Saudi, which he clearly does.

January 15, 20242 yr Benzema rumours worry me. No doubt he is great, but I can remember a few instances where he has supposedly caused dressing room problems, and that's the last thing we need on top of the existing mess.

And he's apparently now gone AWOL at his Saudi club as well ... I don't think any of these older players are anywhere on Clearlakes's radar right now anyway ... We probably should have kept hold of Giroud in hindsight ...

Though we've apparently moved on to 20 year old Duran Duran from Aston Villa. 20 years old. Can't get a game. Next to 0 career goals. South American. How could Boehly resist?
January 15, 20242 yr Wonder if we can somehow convince Benzema on a 6 month loan and then he can force a move to the MLS or somewhere in the summer.
January 15, 20242 yr We need to spend more money on Brazilain kids. wonder kids. Generational talent. Generational talent wonder from Brazil . We are looking at 60m euro (£52m) release clause to sign Palmeiras' 16-year-old Brazil Under-17 winger Estevao Willian.
January 15, 20242 yr Would it surprise anyone if we didn't sign anybody this window. We are halfway through the window and looking at our recent issues in getting documentaion signed on time, we probably need to start the process now to make the deadline

We are halfway through the window and looking at our recent issues in getting documentaion signed on time, we probably need to start the process now to make the deadline I think any incoming might depend on a couple of permanent outgoings from the likes of Kepa, Lukaku, Ziyech, Sarr. Wouldn't surprise me if a couple of the current squad are bumped as well to keep the rest on their toes. Not putting any names in the frame for that mind you 🙂

January 15, 20242 yr I can see us going without any major signings this window (wouldn't be surprised if more younger player deals were announced). Just get this sense they want to see what the team can do as players return and drive competition for places.
January 15, 20242 yr We are being linked with a move for young Colmbian striker Duran from Villa now. He ticks most boxes as he is young, relatively unknown, and hasn't scored many goals. If he was out injured I'd take the rumours a bit more seriously 😉
January 15, 20242 yr Incredible that we're being linked with a young Villa reserve player to solve our striker problem. Unfathomable a couple of years back.
