David Moyes remains insistent that he will not make January signings just for the sake of making them.
As anxities rise over the number of injuries we are suffering and the lack of new arrivals, the manager told the official site: “I don’t want it to be a lucky dip or just taking anything for the sake of it.
Look, we’re short, but more importantly I would like to get the players at the club back fit, as they will be the ones who know the club better and know what is required.
“If we can pick something up in the next week or two who we really, really want then we will try and do so.
“We are definitely short and even if you looked at the number of players we have, we’re probably down two in terms of squad numbers, but sometimes that works because it means you get a chance to introduce your young players onto the bench and some of them get through. Sometimes that allows young players to get a chance.”
Well I like your attitude Mr Moyes. I don’t want us to take any more lucky dip transfers & I know good players do not just fall out of the sky. But maybe if there had been a bit of forward planning we would have lined up some decent additions to an unbalanced, thin & injury prone squad. Just a thought….
+1 & we can’t just expect to be able to buy PL players from Clubs in relegation battle with us which is everyone one from 9th & down really.
So sometimes have to take a chance on foreign talent buying PL players doesn’t always work.
Bundesliga is always good place to buy & have some great CM & AMs. But we won’t get Allen & can maybe get Shelvey bur high wages.
But we need creativity & players even if couple of loans & 1-2 permanent deals.
👍 !
More penny farthing bundles lol. 😎
