Which Premiership players would be sensible targets in January?

If We had the funds to bring in a player or two I'd go for Llalana and McCarthy both young British and both quality players who wouldn't cost the earth but would wait till the end of the season to see their respective Clubs positions.

 

If we went for loans I'd like Guidetti but think Bent would be a great short term player with a proven track record and I be shocked if He didn't leap at the chance to come here.

 

Not a Prem player but I wouldn't mind going for Lee from Bolton.

I'd like to see Llalana here as well, but i'd rather see him in the middle. personally think he is a bit wasted out wide, similar to ossie. Anyone know why he is an evertonian?

We couldnt afford any of the Chelsea players or Walcott but out of the realistc ones I wouldnt mind Frimpong or Brunt as free/nominal fees. Wouldnt touch that Mucha though cos he is proper poo!

Bold players would be useful. The rest wouldn't be considered if their contracts wasn't up, be emergency signings like McFadden/Hitz/Neill.

Frimpong, El Ghanassy, Brunt, Winston Reid, and di Santo would all be worth looking into, IMO.

 

All relatively young, except for Brunt, and could create some good competition in the squad.

 

I don't know the status of El Ghanassy's contract, though I know he is on loan at West Brom.

Only two players of all the above would start a game for us and one is already here, the second (Lampard) we could afford if he took a wage cut, all the rest are squad fillers in my eyes, I know we need strength in depth but I would rather look to bring in on loan a talented youngster from Europe tbh, surely Barca, Madrid, Milan have one to loan us..............

'Frimpong' -- great fucking name ! But not a player I would want here or even recognize above all else.

 

If we were to do this seriously, Giggs and Scholes are two players evidently past their best and approaching late 30s, but are still capable and could contribute and have knowledge of the game better than most. Could we get them though. Seems doubtful, but it's two names that I wouldn't say no to if it were possible to get them.

 

Walcott, I don't like much, but you can't ignore the kids potential, and while maybe still available, I simply can't see here, a next move for the player, but still a name that can provide and has proved dangerous and a valuable player to have at your disposal.

 

I don't think we could get in Toure either, but it's someone I would have chosen, Puncheon is a good decent player and you could do a lot worse, Carlton Cole is once again, a worthwhile addition to any side, and Figueroa at Wigan, was a player we were linked with before wasn't it, and has made a name for himself, and could be a worthwhile capture if you can bring him in.

I'd take Theo Walcott, Ashley Cole, Bred Hangeland, Danny Simpson, Jason Puncheon, Winston Reid, Franco Di Santo, every day of the week.

Walcott isnt actually that good on the wing imo. He has pace but if the fullback isnt slow then he struggles. He also cant cross and he doesnt exactly have many tricks to beat a man.

 

Walcott should be playing up front and God knows why it has taken Wenger so long to even try it. He will have games he struggles in (like Owen etc used to) but he will cause problems to most teams and he is probably one of the best finishers in the league.
