2022: 26 Jan - January Transfer Window

Not sure from the clips I've seen if he has a left foot - could be a mirror image of Ishmael Miller.
On the other hand, I'd pay good money not to have to block a shot from his right foot. Fearsome.

Just thinking if Johnstone's ban does not get overturned, potentially we could have seen him in the stripes for the last time.

If his potential Buyers were studying the last 2 games they're probably thinking: "Naaah"

Dike looks like just what we need, he has a stature and look very similar to Brown Ideye. If folks remember him. I thought Ideye was a good player, but it didn’t quite work out for him. Hoping Dike is more successful. 

Hope we can move out Hugill, Snodgrass and Zohore. 

Plus I hope we can bring back Okay Yoko on loan.

For my 4th wish hope Cleary plays against Brighton, scores a couple and signs a 4 yr contract. 

That would be a good transfer window in my mind.

What happened to that young chinese guy we bought and shipped out on loan 2yrs back?
He was supposed to have been brilliant but lacked experience.

I'd still give Ijahi (oop's)a chance up front - he has height and knows how to score Whistle

From what I read there will not be that much more happening in January.

A few players need to be sold before he can buy and even then at best one defender and one midfielder.

Dike will have a huge responsibility and we know that pressure to perform like that can stop a player performing, example Grant, it took him an age to settle

Zhang Yuning - he joined in 2017 and left in 2019 for Beijing Guoan in the Chinese Super League.

I presume he was released for nothing as his move was never really mentioned. During his time here had 2 loan spells away and they were complete flops so I guess we just wanted him off the wage bill, as he was bizarrely reported to be a high earner. He didn't play a game for Werder Breman in a season there and played just a handful for Den Haag in the Netherlands without scoring. I presume the fact he couldn't even get into a very average Dutch side made us realise we had purchased a pig in a poke.

He's still at Beijing Guoan now. He's not the only familiar name at the club either... His manager, Mr Slaven Bilic.

He does actually score goals for them and for the Chinese national team, but it's a much inferior league. Any striker worth their salt tends to get at least a goal every other game in that league and he's not at that strike rate.

His strike partner Cedric Bakambu tends to score about 2 in 3 and could play at a higher level (actually did well in Spain) but is just a mercenary who moved to China when the were paying the astronomical salaries like Graziano Pelle, Oscar, Rondon etc. Zhang is probably at his level there.

With Dike in the bag and our side threadbare due to injuries and suspensions. I would like to see a CH and CM come in. And I would have thought Woodrow would have joined us if he is coming. The idea that we have to lose Hugill - Snodgrass - Zohore before we can sign anyone is just being bloody minded. If they have directly or indirectly downed tools we should stop paying them.

Another one bites the dust.

Arsenal have signed 16-year-old West Bromwich Albion left-back Lino Da Cruz Sousa, https://www.msn.com/en-gb/sport/football/arsenal-sign-
