Saint IQ Posted 2 February, 2021 Posted 2 February, 2021 I know if I was playing football manager I would be looking at getting a left back for certain and maybe a right back too on a free transfer to help us out till the end of the season. Can't see us doing so but what would be the harm in doing so if they are fit and cost very little in wages? 1

edprice1984 Posted 2 February, 2021 Posted 2 February, 2021 Danny Simpson and Eric Lihaj (sp?) were the only others on there I recognised. In terms of attacking players, Diego Costa, Daniel Sturridge, Wily Bony, Ahmed Musa and Alex Pato all free agents. You would imagine that their wage demands probably aren't going to be small.

Convict Colony Posted 2 February, 2021 Posted 2 February, 2021 Had a quick scan on transfermakt and it its very disappointing seeing who is available for a full back position on a free.

Not THE Diego "the Bastard" Costa?:............Simeone has obviously hung up his Lion Tamers suit

He’s played 84 games in Serie A and 33 internationals for Uruguay(including 6 at 2018 World Cup) since we released him after just 1 appearance for us. Obviously didn’t fit our criteria, but do wish he’d played in that cup final and dealt with Ibrahimovic ! C’est la Vie 3
redkeith Posted 2 February, 2021 Posted 2 February, 2021 Danny Simpson is about the only one on that list we could consider, as none of the rest would get a post Brexit work permit. 1

C’est la Vie Stephens letting Ibra go so easily for that header may just be the subconscious reason I struggle to rate him.
LuckyNumber7 Posted 2 February, 2021 Posted 2 February, 2021 Ezequiel Schelotto was linked with us before joining Brighton, was released in the summer and still without a club. Pape Souare formerly of Palace too. As mentioned most of them wouldn't get a work permit anyway.

davefizzy14 Posted 3 February, 2021 Posted 3 February, 2021 Does anyone think we will dip into the free agent market to get some much needed cover in?

davefizzy14 Posted 3 February, 2021 Posted 3 February, 2021 We should even be allowed an emergency defender signing whether loan or a small fee. Its utterly ridiculous considering this really condensed season. We've got more injuries than anyone else.
teamsaint Posted 3 February, 2021 Posted 3 February, 2021 Would we have spaces in our PL squad to allow us to bring free agents in ?

Its utterly ridiculous considering this really condensed season. We've got more injuries than anyone else. When we got our first win of the season at Turf Moor, Burnley were without Tarkowski, Mee, Gudmundsson, Cork & Rodriguez through injury and their bench was so young the commentators kept referring to the fact that they only had a tiny number of PL appearance between them. I think Burnley's injury problems hit them hard at the beginning of the season.

Its utterly ridiculous considering this really condensed season. We've got more injuries than anyone else. 1. We have no money to bring anyone in. 2. we have no loan spots left. 3. if we asked for an emergency signing, the FA would rightly say “ why did you loan out 3 players in the last week of the window”....
gammon cheeks Posted 4 February, 2021 Posted 4 February, 2021 We had 2 back up full backs and put them out on loan ......fook knows why! Hey ho life goes on .
VectisSaint Posted 7 February, 2021 Posted 7 February, 2021 Looks like we are making some attempt to hijack Ahmed Musa's move to WBA. I know he's not a full back (striker) but interesting that we do seem to be interested, but sounds like money is the issue for us like it is for Big Sam. So maybe we are still on lookout for a free agent after all, just not at FB. No idea whether the sources are good or not.

I wonder whether Ralph will get him in to train with us to have a look. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-9231593/amp/West-Brom-risk-LOSING-chance-sign-free-agent-Ahmed-Musa-Baggies-cash-strapped-January.html Edited 7 February, 2021 by davefizzy14
