How about slapping a bid in for unsettled Dele Alli.
He is younger, can do the same job as Ross Barkley, scores more goals, and is less of an injury liability.
Just an idea, we looked at him when he was at MKD.
He would be more expensive granted, but at 24 could be a good move.
Agreed, wages could be a problem, but as they say nothing ventured nothing gained.

Think he'll follow Poch to PSG but a good call and maybe just needs a fresh start, friends with Jack as well. Also be tempted to try for Beundia, able to play anywhere in that front 3 behind Watkins. I know Norwich have said they won't sell in January but I'd try as he'll be a wanted man in the summer with the likes of Arsenal (no laughing at the back ðŸ˜) interested.

Yeah I said Beundia the other night and only Whacky responded.
I think Beundia and Divock Origi, would give us so much up top, teams would have to sit up and take notice.

I really liked Alli when he first went to Spurs but for some reason he has gone backwards in the last couple of seasons with rumours that his attitude isn’t right, given his initial impact something has clearly gone wrong somewhere whether it’s with Alli himself or with Mourinho who knows, so I think given that I wouldn’t want to risk upsetting the camaraderie in the dressing room I would probably opt for Barkley although I do agree with Moose that if he goes anywhere I think PSG is the likely destination. The good thing though is that we are attracting a better class of rumour than we have for a while🤣🤣.

A shame we didn’t go for Eze in the Summer while the asking price was reasonable. The more I see him play, the more he looks quality.
06 Jan 2021 17:43:16
I agree Mark and I think Osayi -Samuel is another one who may be worth a punt, can play a number of positions is 23 and as he is entering the last 6 months of his contract won’t sign another and therefore wouldn’t cost the earth either.
06 Jan 2021 17:48:15
I am with you on that Mark 100%, Eze is a really good player.
Trick missed me thinks.
06 Jan 2021 17:53:17
Villajohn how about Andy Carroll? Does that restore the balance? 🤔😂😂😂.
06 Jan 2021 18:12:39
Would anyone consider a short term loan for Igahlo? At least until Wesley gets up to speed, give us good cover and we were interested last January. Could then send Davis out on loan to get some regular game time.
06 Jan 2021 18:48:23
I must say I did state that I liked Davis, BUT I think the only place I would send him out to, is a damn lockup garage, and have him trying to hit the doors from 20ft.
I hold my hand up and have to say, he is never a striker, I mean 58 games with a 2 goal return 👎 shocking, Blimey Mark Bosnich, Paul Robinson, and Alex Stepney scored that many, and they were in goal. 😂😂😂.

He’s not had a great deal of success an Man U, but he doesn’t appear to have had that many opportunities.
He was prolific at Watford however an has a good scoring rate for Nigeria.
From what I’ve read, I don’t think Deano has any intention of loaning Davis out but Igahlo on loan as another option might be worth a punt, and I would imagine United would be open to the idea Moose, so good shout mate.
06 Jan 2021 18:56:07
Oh and we’ve spelt his name wrong, it’s Ighalo.
06 Jan 2021 19:10:20
Damn foreigners and there spelling 😂😂😂 think he's only on loan at Utd anyway and the few times he got a chance post lockdown he looked quite a handful. And yes Dave if Davis can't score playing regularly in the championship if he's sent on loan he may as well take up knitting ðŸ˜.
{Ed001's Note - he is on loan you are right.}

I like Alli, been miss managed massively at time. Had the season of his life playing in one role and has rarely been played there since, shame for him. Attitude is sometimes questionable however.
Also been banging the drum for Buendia for some time, if the reported 25mil fee is correct, for his age and ability I think it is well worth it.
06 Jan 2021 19:44:31
Hey guys how about dasilva, Brentford Young midfielder going to be good, buendia, and orgi, good shouts but what about, shaquri, or toney.
06 Jan 2021 19:54:37
Also deeney I know it's controversial but he knows where the net is and is a good player.
07 Jan 2021 13:05:12
I did say on this site back in the summer that we should have bought in Toney from Peterborough. Trouble with Deano is that he never listens to me. Can't see Brentford letting him go at this point of the season given his goal scoring record.
