Yeah, just the player we need. Not been playing regularly & loves living in Liverpool.
The problem is if you want someone playing regularly who loves living in Charlton they already play for us.
This screams loan signing, it will bridge the gap until the summer and I am glad that although a tad underplayed he isn't a teenager. He will have been training with the first team squad at Anfield for years.
Matt Southall told fans before kick-off at Preston that he had not signed anyone yet as the players he has spoken to wanted 'silly' money. Whether their salary requests were genuinely outrageous, or the current going rate for a Championship player we can only speculate about. What seems clear is that to attract the calibre of player they want. Charlton may have to pay over the odds. On a brighter note, the club anticipate making three signings this week, with Bristol Rovers' midfielder, Ollie Clarke, beings poken of.
If nobody else leaves we need 2 quality midfielders and a proper centre half as a. Absolute minimum - we have 1 maybe 2 defenders of the required quality at the monent and 2 midfielders - Williams and Cullen - if we have to pay over the odds to get out of this, that is what we should do - get Maddison abc Curtis in this week abc stop f££king about. We need to be at the races by the time Barnsley turn up
I thought a big turning point in the play off final was Max Power going off injured straight away. I think he Is a good player and I'd be pleased if we signed him.
Never rated Power that highly, Clarke-Harris yes. Thought he could make the leap the season before last but he is still at Rovers. Suggestion that the reason has been injuries so maybe best we steer clear if that's the case.
I think we also need another left footed centre half. Competition for Naby can only be a good thing and taking sentiment out of the equation, we need an option there, one that is not so prone to nodding off or taking unnecessary risk. I like him a lot by the way, just recognise that we need to keep a clean sheet or two over our remaining games if we are to stay in the Champ. Lockyer has been immense, but need Oshi to keep breathing down his neck too!
Although I'd take Max Power & Maddison. Pass on Clarke-Harris though.
Why pass on someone who scores goals?
If you read the article that someone posted yesterday it said that he hasn't been as good this season as he was last & since October has been carrying an injury. His form last season was put down mainly to the manager saying something to him. All sounds a bit hit or miss
We know from sections of our own fan base players “aren’t that good” when they look like they’re going to be leaving. I remember similar comments from Ipswich fans when we signed Darren Bent.
Find it very hard to believe that we would be outbidding Middlesbrough on wages for a player, not to mention Maddison is from the north east so would almost certainly prefer to play for Boro than us.
I think the only players I would want from Sunderland are Lynden Gooch and Luke O'Nien, maybe McGeady. Used to rate Max Power but he is in decline
Definitely not Gooch or McGeady. Cannot see how Power can be decline at 26. Having said that I cannot see how Power and the lad from Liverpool would both sign, we need a more attacking midfielder.

Decline? He is only 26, should have his best years ahead of him.
Yeah performance wise, ask Wigan and Sunderland fans, Wigan are pants and he couldn't make their midfield, Sunderland fans aren't too bothered about him from what I've read

I don’t see how you come to the conclusion that we need a more attacking midfielder. We are shipping goals and part of that reason is that kids do not track players effectively. We also concede so much possession that the defence is under constant pressure. We do have Williams, Green, and Oztumer who can provide the cutting edge and this will not be our only signing. I would also suggest that a player who has been with Liverpool for so long will be very very good at the transition between defence and attack - he will know how to make a telling forward pass!

Because we have Cullen, Field, Pratley and Lapslie who can play that sort of role. Yes we are struggling at the moment but that's because 3 of those have been injured. Chuck in two new signings and that's too many players in one position. We have lost Gallagher who's goals were a big part of our early success. We need a midfielder who can score goals. I love Williams and he should start most of the time but he doesn't score goals. An attacking midfielder capable of scoring a goal would have helped get something in games like Swansea and Derby.

Hopefully that can be Aneke, but he appears to be made of glass.

I still think we need 2 CMs to replace Kayal and Gallgher, and I just hope they are not both defensive midfielders. We need one capable of popping up in the box.

Looking forward, Pedro, Cullen and Pratley would stop the opposition midfield pouring through! Perfect for a 4-3-3 and the diamond.
The most exciting rumour so far.

Exactly who and where should we be signing from ?
