Rumours of bids for Hummels, Marquinhos and Dragovic tomorrow. Do we realistically see anyone coming in?
01 Feb 2015 14:19:32
Why tomorrow and not today if we need them?
Because tomorrow is deadline day and is more likely when we will hear anything. The time scale is irrelevant anyway.
Dunno fresh but it seems unlikely that we would try and bring in 3 cb in one go.
Hummels I would be happy with as for the other 2 I don't know if they a're at the level yet where they could come in and instantly improve the starting 11 although saying that it would make for an interesting deadline day in what has been imo a completely boring pointless window

Hummels would be bottom of my list
We need to lower the wage bill a little before we can bring more people in, this coming summer could be a very busy one for us with in AND out goings.
Agree mr e, hummels would be bottom of my list

MrE,
Bottom of a list that includes dragovic? Have you seen him play?
I think this could be all paper talk. or merely us putting feelers out more for the summer and if someone bites now we would go for it.
Would love someone in tomorrow but really doubt it will happen
Never saw dragovic play, I seen a few matches hummels played since the World Cup and he didn't stand out as being a commanding cb
Talking about commanding cb, s watching the southampton v swansea game today and williams had a great game big, strong character, talking to his back line constantly.surprised no big team have taken a gamble on him.reminded me very much of vidic.

Totally agree, John. But his name doesn't end in 'ez', 'ini', or 'ger'.

Personally no, but I know someone who has seen dragovic play several times and swears he would do well in England.
Personally I'm a laporte fan.
Hummels I think is slow, injury prone, always has the potential for an error, is too costly and needs an athletic partner. I just think its too much of a gamble for the money involved.
