January Window

[Ravo19]

Frimpong shouldn't be included in that list. He is a wide player or full back. Not a midfielder. Letting Jones go on loan would be madness. Unless we were to sign 2 cm.

Frimpong has played right midfield plenty of times.

Frimpong has played right midfield plenty of times.

Right wing maybe or right back but not midfield. Would you go with a midfield 3 of grav, macca and frimpong? Or grav, Szobo and frimpong? Not a chance.

So now the rumours are Jones and slot had a fall out after Bournemouth and Jones was dropped for the CL. Now he is leaving? Unless he is replaced it's a terrible move.

Doesn't say much about Slot's man management skills if true

[Insidious]

Inter and liverpool in talks for curtis jones loan with right to buy,jones rumoured to be up for it.

Rumour that Jones and Van Dijk had a bit of a row with Slot after the Bournemouth match, with Van Dijk being "cooler" during it and Jones somewhat losing the rag.

Thought to be part of the reason that it's happening - a push from Slot - will be interesting to see in time if it's utter tripe or a "no smoke without fire" job.

Not according to transfermarkt and wiki,frimpong right back and right midfield.

And then jones is 'ill' for CL game.

[Daffydd]

Do we still need 8 homegrown players in the 25 man squad? Asking for a friend.

A loan deal is a bit iffy. What price Slot to leave at the end of the season and Jones and Elliot to return?

[Kev0909]

We need at least 1 experienced mid coming in (plus bacjetic to return) as well as Jones staying put to build the squad ffs.

No point countign bajectic anymore sadly

Injuries have ruined him, will end up playing in the 2nd division in spain, possiby lower team in the first.

[Kev0909]

Jeremy Jacquet has informed Rennes he only wants to join Chelsea despite interest from Liverpool.

Must be an absolute fruit loop, bullet dodged.

We have Leoni as the kid CB we need someone a bit more established 23-27 in my opinion.

[Insidious]

And then jones is 'ill' for CL game.

Indeed.

Letting a Home-grown lad go would worry me a bit, unless we have one Hell of a replacement lined up.

If someone like Adam Wharton was arriving I could get behind it more but I really don't want to see Jones leave in this window.

how can he leave? we going for the smallest squad in history, after being title winners or what ?

He's not leaving unless we have a replacement lined up.

Those two incoming midfielders would need to be good, if not top quality. At least one of them would need to be a DM, and both would need to have a good injury record and a history of consistently putting in 7/10 or better performances.

[miller0863]

Jones is an excellent squad member and local lad, the only reason he should be going is if he wants to leave to be a regular starter which he has never quite been here. The club should not be thinking about letting him go by choice

[justme]

I think the issues are over wages.. If hes being offered pittance and Virgil is making constant mistakes and on 350 thousand a week. It would make me angry as well.. If you're on such huge wages. you can't afford any poor games. or 1 or maybe 2. but hes been terrible this season like a lot of players. This is why the club always struggles when it comes to getting players. I'ts the wages and how it will affect the other members of the squad.. When it came to Guehi, they simply weren't going to give him 300 thousand a week. the rest of the players who contracts are up for renewal will want a huge rise in their contracts..
I can understand why we didn't get Guehi in that instance. we do need cover. but it won't happen until the summer now.

Who says ? you're just as clueless as everyone else.

VVD has got that because he's been a rock and a legend for years, jones has been a bit part player.
