Maybe a tad early but it's looking unlikely that we will do any January business, and it's based directly off Jose's quote.

"My club, two years ago, paid a lot of money for Paul [Pogba]. Last year, they paid a lot of money for Lukaku and I'm sure, next year, they are also going to pay a lot of money for one player."
The liklihood is the player will be a forward and one that is marketable, which narrows the options a bit. I'm hoping for Dybala but I just can't convince myself and I'm not sure we'll spend the kind of money Barca have. I still think Griezmann could happen as his buyout is closer to the price we've paid for our "marquee" signing the last 2 summers, but I don't think he's what we need. My biggest worry is that we'll be the mugs to fund Real's frontline rebuild by taking Bale off their hands. If Spurs finish outside the top 4 Eriksen could be a possibility.
Poll please? @Damien
