And what a time for it to come along, the January transfer window is upon us and its time to see whether or not any of the myriad of players we have been linked with since September do materialise!
The list is bloody huge as well, some of them realistic others just plain ridiculous, the list however includes among other the following:
Luis Suarez
Emmanuel Adebayor
Steven Pienaar
Christopher Samba
Karim Benzema
Ashley Young
Luis Fabiano
Scott Parker...*yawn*
I also think i saw a rumour that we were going to bring Gary Lineker back again - bloody tabloids!
Obviously the biggest topic is the potential loan of some 'Beckham' guy, whoever he is! Seriously though out of all these rumours I would have put him as the most unlikely back in September, now it looks like its merely hours/days away!
I think the one big trend here however is that they are for the most part front men. Lets face it, at the moment our strike force is probably our problem area (in the sense they aren't scoring) - what a difference half a season makes! Keano is on his way out, Crouch cant seem to score in the Premiership and Pav is laziness personified. I'm hoping that Defoe will get back to last seasons form soon but he hasn't really had a chance yet - what with the injury and getting sent off against Villa!
And you cant just rely on Bale and VdV to score them all!
